Mix and Match Ethnic Wedding Cake Toppers for the Perfect Couple

Aug 1, 2009
In today's diverse melting-pot society, more and more couples of varying backgrounds, cultures, religions, and nationalities are falling in love and getting married.

However, this can pose a problem when it comes to choosing the right combination of ethnic wedding cake toppers for the cake. Fortunately, today this is becoming less of a problem with the availability of mix and match ethnic wedding cake toppers. No matter what combination you and your bride and groom happen to be, there is sure to be a combination that is appropriate for you.

Traditionally, the most common wedding cake topper came in just two kinds - Caucasian and non-Caucasian. Unfortunately, these two choices only cover a small portion of ethnically mixed marrying couples, so the demand for a wider variety of ethnic wedding cake toppers grew stronger. As a result, the wedding industry began creating ethnic wedding cake toppers that would better encompass all nationalities and cultures.

While this might seem like a small victory for some, it is a huge victory for those who don't fit what society had previously considered the "traditional" married couple. Your wedding cake is meant to represent the love you and your new spouse feel for one another and should accurately portray each person as an individual and together as a couple. This can now be fully realized with the many combinations that are made possible using these ethnic wedding cake toppers.

Rather than having to settle for the non-descript Caucasian or non-Caucasian options, couples can now choose from African American, Hispanic, Indian, or Asian figurines. Many of these ethnic wedding cake toppers come complete with culturally significant detailing as well. For instance, the traditional Indian figurines are decorated with henna tattoos and bindi dots or dressed in authentic sari or sherwani outfits. These individual wedding topper figurines can easily be paired with a partner that is of the same ethnicity or a completely different one.

In addition, most wedding toppers even come in a variety of specific hair color choices, such as brown, blonde, red, or even with no hair at all! All of these varying options make it much easier to choose ethnic wedding cake toppers that truly represent who you and your new spouse are as real people.

For those who still prefer traditional cake toppers featuring a bride and groom, you no longer have to settle for a stiff-looking couple with phony smiles. A whimsical alternative to the older bride and groom is an adorable child couple with cherubic faces.

For couples who can't wait to get to the honeymoon, a bride and groom in a convertible car is a fun-loving way to celebrate your new life together. Destination weddings are becoming more popular, with couples jetting off to exotic destinations such as Hawaii and the Caribbean to get married. These unconventional couples may prefer a barefoot bride and groom on the beach.
