We’re talking wedding cake toppers with names on the blog today! Subscribe here for the latest to your inbox so you don’t miss an upcoming post!

Your wedding cake is a focal point of your reception. Even though guests love it for the way it tastes (wedding cake with fillings and flavors is one of the best desserts ever!), your cake is also enjoyed by looks alone, long before coffee is poured and cake is sliced.

During the ceremony, all eyes are on you; at the reception, all eyes are on the cake. ;) Okay, only kidding, eyes are still on the both of you, but cake is a pretty big deal at the reception. If you add a creative topper to yours, it will be picture-perfect for your cake cutting and make for a more memorable presentation.

Cake toppers don’t have to be extravagant, over-the-top, or even expensive.

In fact, there has never been a better time to shop wedding cake toppers with so many unique artists on Etsy bakin’ up all kinds of cool, unique wedding accents. They know couples love custom touches and there’s no easier way to add your own style than with a personalized topper for your cake or dessert bar.

Where to Shop Custom Cake Toppers for Weddings

One of our favorite shops to browse cake toppers is Thistle and Lace, Featured Artist at Emmaline Bride. These custom wedding cake toppers range from traditional and classic options to totally fun cake toppers, all the way to completely custom with your names in the spotlight.

This custom design is ideal for rustic inspired wedding. It features Mr and Mrs in laser-cut wood and features your new last name. This topper is available in your choice of color finish.

Check out the quality on these! You can see how beautiful they are in this up-close photo.

Here are the color finishes you can choose from for your topper.

Planning a geometric themed wedding? It’s one of my favorite themes! Tie in your modern theme with this geometric themed wedding cake topper with names on the inside of a hexagon shape.

If your theme is a starry night wedding, this cake topper is a must-have! Instead of a topper with names, this topper reads, “It’s written in the stars” and features your zodiac / constellation sign on the inside.

Here’s an example of the constellations. Where are my fellow Virgos at?! What’s your star sign?

Are you a fan of Star Wars? Or maybe your soon-to-be spouse is? Surprise them with this “I Love You, I Know” cake topper, inspired by the popular movie.

This cake topper is fit for Gatsby himself! In this topper, you’ll find an art deco inspired design with your names on the inside. This is a true keepsake item; you’ll love to use this topper again for anniversary cakes to come!

This stylish tropical cake topper is great for destination or tropical weddings; it works great for palm tree bachelorette parties, too!

In addition, we love this charming cake topper for your flamingo bachelorette party or bridal shower. :)

You have to admit, this “finally” topper is a perfect touch for engagement parties!

This charming accent features your names inside a rustic-inspired wreath.

A sweet top to your cake with the words, “Meant to Bee”.

And it goes great with this themed guest book alternative, too! (I love this.)

And last but not least, this mountain themed wedding topper is a fantastic way to top the cake. We love it for mountain inspired weddings and outdoorsy couples. Great for your next big adventure: marriage! Spoiler alert: marriage is awesome! :)
