Planner's Pick - Paper Gowns & Glory

Planner's Pick - a review of the new trend in cake toppers.

So you want to have a unique cake topper that won't sit in your china cabinet collecting dust? Well, then this post is for you!

I found this really cute, boutique paperista and I just had to share. Instead of a traditional cake topper, create a hand crafted replica of your wedding gown. (The groom is also included using the cut of the tux.) What a fabulously unique and "green" idea.

Not only is this a way to honor the details of a once-worn dress, it can be a keepsake to remind you how special your gown is. Since it is paper, it is less fragile and can be displayed somewhere you will actually see it, like your cubicle. Of course, since it is paper you could also have it recycled. Just make sure your photographer gets a few snapshots for your album.

The thing I think is the coolest about Paper Gowns & Glory is that she customizes everything and works very closely with her clients. This is definitely an eco-chic trend that I hope continues!

If you want a personalized memento of your gown, and you are crazy about being environmentally savvy this is a perfect product for you.
