Topping it Off

Happy Monday!  As I continue to check things off the to-do list in preparation for the big day I realized I had to start giving some more thought to our cake design.  My preferences on this are pretty plain & simple (basic off-white buttercream, no flowers) so finding the right cake topper will be very important!  A few favorites I've been collecting from around the web...

Could not get over this adorable ones from forgetmeknotweddings 

especially when I then saw it again (customized) on SMP

 This one from Ruffled Blog especially speaks to my heart as Dan & I have 2 cats! I love the idea of giving them a little nod at the wedding.

Or maybe some kind of a little sign like this one (also from Ruffled)

and some more love birds over at Love and Lavender

But sometimes I wonder if we should do something a little more chic and add a little ode to our beloved Eiffel Tower...

(but perhaps a bit more shimmery than bling-y if you know what I mean?)  topperswithglitz

What do you think?  What are the favorite cake toppers you have seen?
