Cinderella Wedding Cake Toppers – With Carriage And Horse!

Wedding cake toppers are great wedding accessories. They have the ability to put the ultimate finish on a cake whether it is a touch of elegance or humor that is desired. Today, cake toppers do more than just be a piece of cake decoration. Indeed, wedding cake toppers now also double up as wedding souvenirs for the bridal couple and may even be the main inspiration for the wedding favors.

Wedding cake toppers can be divided into various types - humorous or funny ones, radical ones, romantic and themed ones. Humorous wedding cake toppers are often bride and groom miniatures in funny, unconventional poses which depict the couple in a funny way. Some humorous toppers actually portray very true-to-life idiosyncrasies of the couple themselves, which guests may find very amusing!

Radical wedding cake toppers are rarely seen and are usually reserved for very niche groups - those in the Rock, Goth or cultic groups, for instance. These may display certain religious or cultural beliefs, which may be the reason for their rarity in the wedding scene as these may be disturbing to the general public. Romantic wedding cake toppers, on the other hand, are absolutely harmless and depict the rosy outlook of love in its purest form. Often portraying the bridal couple with entwined hands, cheek to cheek or kissing, romantic cake toppers are also the most popular in weddings.

Themed wedding cake toppers are pretty and quite accessible as well. Some toppers that fall into this category are animated cake toppers and caricature ones. Animated characters like the Simpsons, the Precious Moments series, Cinderella series and Lion King characters are just a few of the more popular themed toppers.

Cinderella wedding cake toppers are well-loved by bridal couples because of the fairy-tale behind it - the prince goes in search of his princess and scours the world just to find her and her his. As such, it is no wonder that there are various designs available for the picking. Most Cinderella cake toppers depict Cinderella and her prince dancing with her skirts swirling around their legs. This timeless show of love and ever after happiness is a beautiful piece of porcelain that will bring a tinge of nostalgia and familiarity to both adults and children.

Some Cinderella wedding cake toppers romantically show him on his knees in a supposed attempt to fit her shoe onto her feet or both in a horse-drawn carriage happily reining off into the horizon. Other poses in line with the fairy tale are also available - all carrying the same successful romantic theory of Love Found, Offered and Received. Most Cinderella cake toppers today come with a revolving topper base, which give a life-like appearance of the couple actually dancing. For those who use transparent or glass Cinderella toppers, it is recommended that a lighted base be used for maximum effect. This will light the topper up from below and put the figurines on spotlight.

Other equally romantic and regal wedding cake toppers are those that are closely themed with all things royal, like horse-drawn carriages and castles. Castle cake toppers are often made of porcelain to create a transparent, fragile, brilliant appearance or clay, which are often used for outdoor beach weddings due to their hardiness. Castle cake toppers are also popular for high profile weddings where flags of prominent families depicting family emblems can be included on the castles. Weddings of couples from two different countries are also prone to using castles which wave their respective national flags from its tower.

For the very exclusive, there are also designer castle cake toppers available. These may be more costly as they are normally handcrafted by world-renowned chefs or sculptors. The very exclusive castle cake toppers are often copies of real castles, usually owned by those who have them ordered in. Usually in ivory with gold flecks, these toppers are decorated by tiny ribbons, bows, flowers buds and given a sheer sparkle finish so it shines atop the cake.

Beach weddings often use castle cake toppers as well, of a different kind. For weddings on the beach, often cake toppers of sandcastles are used to highlight the outdoor beach theme. Often, these wedding cake toppers will be made of clay as they are hardier for an outdoor wedding, where lots of transportation efforts may have to be done. Usually white or beige in color, sandcastle cake toppers may be given a touch of elegance with a touch of gold around the edges to highlight its exquisite craftsmanship.

Despite its name, castle cake toppers do not have to be reserved for traditional weddings only. Many unconventional, themed weddings use castle cake toppers which give a fairy tale-like touch to their wedding festivities.
