Wedding figurine on a cake: style
The issue of style is as important as what the figurine will be made of. The design of the figures of the bride and groom should be sustained in the general theme of the wedding. For example, if the celebration is planned to be done in the classic version, then the figurines are performed in the same manner.

There are such funny figures on a wedding cake, where the groom holds his wife in his arms, kneels in front of her, they kiss, hug or sit. Especially creative portray the newlyweds on skis, in a swimsuit, in the form of a zombie, in a football uniform. Often statuettes of young people are depicted together with their beloved dogs or cats, with children or, for example, with their second bride.
