"Funny" cake toppers
Filed under: Cakes and Catering, Etiquette, Receptions
I have a good sense of humor. I like to poke fun at myself (and others). One of the best parts of my wedding reception was cutting the cake with my husband -- my sister told us we were doing too quickly for good photos, so she made us do it again -- and we did. SLOWLY. My husband did his best impression of a hungry baby bird and I inched the cake towards his face at glacial speed. It was hilarious.
I'm not sure this cake topper (or this one) make me laugh, though. The toppers depict a very apprehensive groom being dragged to the altar. And honestly, I think it's emasculating to the groom to indicate he could be forced, against his will, into a lifelong commitment -- and offensive to the bride to indicate that she was marrying someone who'd rather not be at his own wedding. And I know it's supposed to be funny, so I guess my question is, is it?
