Wedding Cake Topper

by Stephanie

Danny and I found this beautiful cake topper on ebay today! We really wanted a cake topper that was elegant and more like a sculpture than some weird plastic thing with creepy faces painted on the figures, but I still liked the idea of having a bride and groom instead of some abstract sculpture piece. I randomly googled cake toppers because one of my "Wedding Tip of the Day" websites was talking about cake toppers and how expensive some of them can be. We found this one for only $30!

It has a Shakespeare quote on it: "Now join your hands, and with your hands your hearts." I think it is so pretty that I wouldn't mind having it out on a shelf somewhere even after the wedding. Danny and I also liked that the bride and groom were the same height lol. Most of the cute wedding toppers have a really short bride, and I am not short at all!

****UPDATE*****
So I have gotten a TON of hits on the wedding website regarding this cake topper! We are talking about hundreds. People are searching for wedding cake toppers in google images and then clicking on the picture I have here. I have had a couple people contact me asking where I bought it so I figured I would just go ahead and update this post with that info:

It is a piece made by "Gina Freehill." Gina actually contacted me and told me that she has a new website where you can buy lots of her items including the cake topper! Here is the website:


We also ended up buying the Unity Candle and we loved it. It was so unique! I haven't posted many pictures from the wedding yet, but here are some pictures of our cake with the cake topper:

Hope this helps some of you guys out! It is gorgeous! The bride actually has a little piece of tulle for a veil!
And they lived happily ever after...

    I just ordered this topper, too! Also, if you buy it from http://ginafreehillshop.com she'll sign the bottom of it. I had to call her office to pre-order it and actually got to talk to her! She's a very sweet woman. She said she'll be on QVC in two weeks, if you're interested!
