How to Look for a Special Wedding Topper for a Winter Theme
- 1). Look at your wedding inspiration. If you don't have one, make some mood boards by sticking pictures and words which inspire you onto cardboard or paper. These will help you to focus your mind onto your theme -- and make sure your topper fits with the rest of the theme.
- 2). Write down any important features your topper must have. Do you want it to feature people? Is there a certain color you'd like the topper to be? Are you looking for something traditional, or something more unique and original?
- 3). Speak to your cake designer. Many cake designers work closely with companies providing toppers, and may have wholesale catalogues for you to choose from. They may also be able to recommend local companies which make high quality cake toppers.
- 4). Look on handmade websites such as Folksy and Etsy. These contain hundreds of shops from individual designers who handmake a variety of products. If you find a designer you like, you can contact them through the site to ask them if they could design and make you a topper. You can also put requests on the site, and different designers will "bid" for the project.
- 5). Visit shops with cake making sections. Many craft shops have these sections, as well as large grocery stores. Look at different ranges of toppers and see if there is one you love.
