Crystal Wedding Cake Toppers Make a Stunning Statement

Wedding Cake Top

Planning a wedding is all about details, not the least of which is the wedding cake and finding just the right topper. While wedding cake toppers traditionally represented the bride and the groom, today there are many more options available and couples are selecting designs that reflect their personalities. Crystal wedding cake toppers make a stunning statement and can easily be personalized to fit your unique style.

Crystal toppers may be figurines like two swans with their necks intertwined, heart-shaped, roses or other flowers, crystal sprays, monograms, or even custom designs created specifically for you. The crystal may be clear or there may be a number of colors combined to give it added personality. The crystal design is often placed on a mirrored base or has mirrors worked into the design in order to maximize the sparkle that the crystal provides.

The amount of sparkle that a crystal topper has is directly related to the design and the quality of the crystal. The more intricate the design, the more facets there are and therefore the more surfaces available for light to reflect off of so that the top of your cake shimmers and sparkles.

As you can imagine, the more intricate the design the more expensive it's likely to be. For example, the most simply designed crystal toppers start at about $20 while the more intricate designs and custom toppers that are detailed with Swarovski crystals can be hundreds of dollars.

In addition to crystal wedding cake toppers, you can also use crystal gems or beading on the cake or on the cake table for added sparkle and elegance.
