Bride & Groom Figurines: this trend is making a comeback. With many figurines sold individually, you can easily mix and match cake tops – select from color of hair, ethnicity, gender, etc. Figurines come in different positions, too – select figurines that dance, shop, holding a symbol of a favorite hobby, etc.

Monogram or Initials: another trend that is becoming quite popular, is the merging of your first name initial with his first and last name initial – creating your monogram. Or consider just a large single initial of your new married name. From scripty letters with rhinestones or Swarvoski crystals to colorful block letters, the sky is the limit!
