The W looked like an M upside down. It did not look good at all. I know they have the picture up now but if you want a W look somewhere else, you will get a M instead. The other letters look great and I even think the M looks nice but the W is horrible. I'm looking for a new topper.

I bought the "B" for our cake topper. I had read a review that said it looked more like the number 13 than a B. But I disagree. Ours looked perfect once it was on the cake! Also, bought it when it was on sale :) definately wait for a sale if you can
from Charlotte, NC on 8/8/2009
I just received my M last week [...] and think it is absolutely beautiful. It is the perfect size for the top of our cake. The only thing that could make it better is if the actual M portion was wider. In the picture the arms of the M (especially the V in the center) have space between them, whereas when I got it, it's very close together. But overall it's very pretty.

I really LOVED our cake topper. It was so practical. It fit our cake perfectly, and I now have it displaying on a small shelf in our living room.

I purchased the "W" for my wedding, and unfortunately the topper looks like a lopsided "W." I appreciate that the topper is sturdy, but it is a bit too small and overpriced.

I really love this cake topper. We ordered the "H" for our cake, and I plan to turn it into a centerpiece for our dining room table with the help of my florist after the wedding. An added bonus was that we caught it on sale! My only concern was that I didn't actually get to see the letter (only the M was shown), but I read other reviews and found one on the "H." I love it!

I ordered the "M" for our cake. It is perfect and we will use it after the wedding as a decoration in our house!

from Buffalo, NY on 7/2/2009
I was really excited to get my "B" for the top of our cake. The "M" shown is really pretty and the other reviews were mostly positive. When our "B" arrived I was moderately impressed, but my fiance "Mr.B" said "Hon, it looks like a #13!". The letter B does look like a 13 because the bottom "bubble" of the B isn't connected to the straight part. If I had seen it before hand I wouldn't have ordered it. I think theknot should offer examples of all of the letters. If you're not sure you want to order this product check other websites, most offer examples of all the letters. Another reviewer mentioned that her G looked like a lower case g when it arrived. Most of the letters are really pretty, but a few are not what you'd expect. We're going to glue our 13 together so that it looks more like a B!

from Detroit, MI on 6/29/2009
I absolutely love my "W", however there is one small flaw. There aren't any prongs to insert into the cake. Some letters, like the "M" they show in the picture have enough of a base to stand on their own steadily, but a "W" does not. My cake shop is going to have to finagle something in, around or under it to make it stand steady. Otherwise I really am pleased with the purchase.

I love it. It is going to be perfect for our four tier cake!! Then I am excited to use it in our house!!
from Bay City, MI on 5/26/2009
[...]The topper itself is wonderful. I got it on sale, which made it even better. I have silver in the wedding and the "M" is beautiful, so it seemed appropriate for us.
I got mine in the mail today, I ordered the "W". The script design is what I was looking for and I think it will look very nice on our cake. I am pleased with this purchase!

Our cake is going to be a beautifully Berry colored pink, and frosted with lots of hand-painted scrolls. We ordered the "M" topper. This matches perfectly with the cake and was a little larger than it looks in the picture. The top tier of the cake (as shown in the picture) is probably 6". So consider the size of your cake when purchasing. We also got the Berry colored napkins with the M monogram in silver, and they are beautiful! We plan to put this topper on our bookshelf after the wedding.

i was sceptical on buying this with all the reviews of being "flimsy" and "small" but i'm glad i did! i absolutely love it! one of those pieces i can use even after the wedding and it was on sale! can't beat it!
from Wisconsin on 4/8/2009
Great but a little expensive for the quality. Can re-use in your house after the wedding though!
from Corona, CA on 4/7/2009
I really like the "M" but i kinda think its a little small. Im not one to complain, but it'll work. our cake isnt too big though. i like it. i think it also looks bigger in the picture than it really is.
I was worried the initial topper would look flimsy, but I think it's going to be perfect on the top of our wedding cake. It's sturdy, elegant and I love it! The price wasn't bad either.
from Baltimore, MD on 3/4/2009
I just got mine in the mail and I absolutely love it (I got the letter M)! I bought it on sale and it was a great deal for the price. It is exactly as described online. I also love the versatility of this piece. After we use it on the cake, we plan to use it as a figurine to decorate our home or office!

I got this for my wedding in May. After reading reviews about it being too small, I was a little worried, but I love mine. Dont be intimidated by the small sounding size, it is just the right size for the top tier of a cake. I ordered the "R" and it is very lovely. Its simple but elegant, and very light but very well made. It was not rough or bent out of shape or anything. I cant wait to have this on our cake and then set it up somewhere in our home!
from Cincinnati, OH on 2/17/2009
I ordered the "R" for my wedding in May, and I was a little skeptical, but I am so glad I bought it. It is well made and looks sturdy, but is light enough to go on a cake. I was afraid it would be too small, but don't be intimidated by that. It looks good sized in person.
The edges are all smooth, too, which is nice.
I can't wait to put it on our cake, and then to have it as a decoration in our home.

from Sarasota, FL on 2/13/2009
We ordered this topper for our upcoming April wedding. We ordered the letter "W" and it's great! The script font gives it a classy look. It's also very sturdy, so it is able to stand alone, which means no worries about it falling off the cake. We are looking forward to to using it in a short 49 days!
from Grayslake, IL on 2/2/2009
Perfect, simple and exactally what I wanted!
from Caldwell, Idaho on 1/30/2009
We just got this one and we absolutely love it! We ordered the H and it will look great on our wedding cake. The size is perfect!
It's perfect for what we wanted. We did not want the traditonal people topper. It's a perfect size for a cake. The letter H is beautiful! Looks great!!!
from Hayden,Idaho on 1/20/2009
We love this topper! It will fit perfect and we're so excited to use it!

I ordered this for our wedding next July. I LOVE it so much I've decided to make the monogram the theme of our wedding!!! Does anyone know where I can find the matching font??? We have the "M" and I can find fonts that are similar, but not close enough. THANKS!!!!

I will put this on top of the cake...at first i was hesitant to get this due to not knowing what it looked like in each letter but i found an image on [...]...so here it is!!!

I ordered the letter "G" not knowing what it would look like since there is no examples. I just received it in the mail today and I am pleased with it. It is lower case however, and I wasnt aware that is how it would come, but I love it! I cant wait to use it on our July 11th wedding and then place it in our house. I think it will look great on our cake and I am sure others will agree. I am also glad I caught it while on sale, so it was a great deal! :)

I had just received our "M" cake-topper in the mail today and we love it!! Our wedding isn't until October 16 of next year BUT when I saw that it was online AND ON SALE....I just had to get it! I have kept a clipping of an "M" cake-topper (from a Bridal magazine) and I knew this would be PERFECT! It's so cute and it'll look great on our wedding cake. And the best part is, is that it can be used to be place on a shelf to remind us of our wedding day.
from Kansas on 11/7/2008
I was so excited when I found this cake topper... and it was on sale!! Everyone I've showed it to loves it. The only thing is that my cake-maker thinks she might need to add something to stabilize it. I personally think it looks like it could stand on it's own, but I'm going to let her decide.
Other than that, I LOVE IT!!!

I love this intial topper. It is large and made of solid metal. It stands on its own so we can use it somewhere in the house after the wedding. Its not small and plastic like others, very, very pleased!!!

I was thrilled when I ordered this topper. I ordered the letter "F" and was pleased with its design. I took a chance and ordered it without seeing a sample first, but it turned out great! All of our guests loved it and now we have it sitting on a shelf in our bedroom!

from WV on 9/5/2008
where im from, most girls just do the traditonal bride & groom on top of the cake, i wanted to be different. we ordered the "m" to sit on top of our four-tiered red velvet cake. it is beautiful, well made, and different. i am very very happy with my purchase.
[3 of 3 customers found this review helpful]
I was very nervous about ordering this without knowing what our letter would looks like. It would be nice if they would show what all the letters or at least what "font" they use on the website. We got an R and I love the design! It was a little expensive for a simple curve of metal but it looked nice on the cake and we plan to use it in our house too!

from Seattle, WA on 7/11/2008
I purchased the "N" cake topper and it worked perfectly on my small cake. It would have been nice if it had some anchoring spikes, but we were able to "push" it into the frosting with no visible issues. Please note that the top layer of the cake was only 5" x 5".

from Austin, TX on 7/3/2008
I am using this for my wedding cake topper. I currently have it displayed on a shelf. It can double for a decorating piece in your new home together after the wedding. It comes just like it looks in the picture. I got the M like in the picture and I pulled it outwards a little bit to make it slightly larger. It's lightweight, so it won't be too heavy for the cake. Looks great and brushed steel finish.

from North Carolina on 6/19/2008
We had the "S" on top of our three tier cake that fed 150 (see picture). I think it was a perfect size. It looked very classy with our contemporary-style cake, but if you're a more traditional bride you probably want to go for something different. It definitely wasn't worth [$] (the metal is not extremely heavy duty). But I thought it was very pretty!

I love the "M" and i loved the fact that I could see a picture of it before i bought it. the only down side is that mine looks a little rough around the edges...almost like someone forgot to sand it down and make it smooth. luckily my soon to be hubby is handy and he smoothed it down so no one will get cut by the sharp edges.

I loved my cake topper! I had a 5-tier cake & it didn't look too small at all (I had the "M"). I also happen to have a pic of the examples of the other letters. Hopefully, that will help some of you with making a decision. I kept the topper & have it on display on our bookshelf. It looks great!

It's cute, but not worth [$]... but it's my own fault for not truly comprehending it's size before I ordered it.

I loved it as soon as I saw it. I got the letter "B" and it will look perfect on our 3 tier cake. I also like that after the wedding I will be able to use it to highlight a wedding photo or shadow box with wedding items in it. I can't wait to use it in my November wedding
[3 of 3 customers found this review helpful]
I ordered the "D" and it looks really cute. Others wrote about its size but I thought it was a great size. Im using it for the Grooms cake, but even for mine I think it would be perfect. Although I am having a three tierd cake, which is smaller cake.
Of course I wanted it to be cheaper, but wait until its on sale, even if its not I think it really adds a modern look!
[4 of 4 customers found this review helpful]
This is perfect for our wedding. We are having about 100 people so the size is good for a smaller 3 layer cake. I wish there were prongs that go into the top of the cake to hold it in place better but other than that its great!

from Tulsa, Oklahoma on 3/22/2008
I got the "S" for my July wedding...cake to feed about 250. It's definitely adorable and I love it! It's not big enough to stand on top of my big cake alone, but when combined with the flowers I already had planned, it's perfect!

I really liked that I dont have to worry about it breaking as we travel to our destination wedding. Very sturdy.

from Minneapolis, MN on 2/26/2008
I used this cake topper for our destination wedding cake, it was a smaller 3 tier cake and it looked to be the perfect size. We had the "H" and it was really cute. I would not recommend it for a large cake since it may look too small.

from Cape Coral, FL on 2/21/2008
I was expecting a much different design (the website REALLY needs to show ALL of the finished letters, not just the "M") but I ended up liking the result just fine. The size is perfect for my 120-person, 3-tier cake and is a nice alternative to some other kitschy cake toppers out there!

I got the letter "C" and it was so unattractive and not worth the price. I sent it back.
[7 of 7 customers found this review helpful]
from Dallas, TX on 1/3/2008
I had a big cake, 5 tiers, the top layer was 8 or 10 inches, and the M was plenty big for our cake! My only complaint is that the letter is so skinny at the top that you can't really tell what it is unless you look at it straight on.

from Central Coast, CA on 11/21/2007
I reseved my topper very quickly[...] I got the "S". It is a good size for an 8-10" cake. It was a bit hard to figure out at first because it was very swirly. It has a clear stomper which allows it stand up by itself. However, I don't think I would have the cake travel with the topper on.

I loved my cake topper. The initial on top of our cake was much more "us" than a cheesy bride and groom.

from Pontiac, MI on 10/11/2007
We loved this topper. We bought both of our first initals and put them on top of the cake, we thought one letter might look weird. Then after the wedding instead of boxing them up, we put them on display next to a wedding picture.

The letter I recieved "J" was so ackward I couldn't decided if it was a letter or a music note. It did not have anything on it to stick down in the cake... so I will be looking for something else.

I am having individual cakes on every table and this topper is perfect!! It is just the right size for a cake that is 8-12". This would also be a great topper for a shower cake!

My cake topper just arrived yesterday and I was so excited to open it! I was sad to see how small it was. Even though I knew the measurements, it was still disappointing to see how small it was. I don’t know if I am going to use it or get a new one. I am afraid it will look lost on top of a big wedding cake. I think it is cute enough to be displayed somewhere in your home though :)
from Bowling Green, KY on 7/17/2007
I was a little surprised at the size of the letter when I opened the box. I guess I didn't expect 5" to look so small, but we are having small cakes on every table, so this cute little letter is a perfect topper!

from Las Vegas, NV - the wedding spot on 6/23/2007
It was great! Though I felt the need to make it gorgeous. And I did! It is stunning with ribbons and ornaments. The material made it easy to work with and what an attractive design! It sat atop my cake on a stand and all the fixings~ I loved it, though it could have been cheaper since I worked so hard to adorn it. But nevertheless, it gave me plenty of ideas and I had a ball working with it!
