So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Wedding Cake Toppers - New Cool Trend

By Beattie Sharona

Wedding cake toppers were not as popular for weddings as they are today. More and more they are becoming as important as the wedding cake and are one of the fastest growing wedding gifts.

Once over, wedding cake toppers just used to be in the form of a generic bride and groom couple. Now, though a wedding cake topper can be custom designed to the bride and groom's requirements which really makes the wedding cake even more unique. Personalised wedding cake toppers that are made from clay or sugar paste can be crafted to look like copies of the happy couple even right down to their wedding day outfits. Grooms can be shown wearing kilts, military uniforms or even their favourite sports team kit! Brides can be made wearing their wedding dresses, veils and tiaras and even hair styles and the type and colour of flowers used in their bridal bouquet.

They can even be themed related to the time of year that they are getting married such as Valentines Day or if it is a beach wedding in some far flung exotic location. Family members and the couple's pets can be added for that extra special touch. Many of the more popular cake toppers seem to be funny and humourous to reflect the bride and groom's personalities.

Once the wedding cake is long gone a cake topper can be kept as a unique keepsake and memento of one of the most wonderful days a couple will ever have. 
A new trend that is only just catching on in 2010 is for a monogrammed wedding cake topper. This type of wedding cake decoration is believed to have been launched in the USA and very few British and European retailers seem to have them available yet! They are usually crafted from acrylic or brushed steel and all of the letters of the alphabet and some numbers are available. Monogram wedding cake toppers usually include the initials of the bride and groom i.e. M & P.

What makes them really special though and what I believe is driving their popularity is that they are hand decorated with Swarovski crystals which match your wedding day theme. These crystal cake toppers really do create the wow factor sat on the top of your wedding cake to really add some bling!

There is a wedding cake topper to suit every budget and every taste!
