Modern Moments

Modern wedding couples are skirting some of the tried and true traditions to indulge in their own sense of "new" worldliness.

Cake toppers are one of the easiest ways modern wedding couples can let their personalities shine through. With toppers exhibiting brides slinging their grooms over their shoulders or dragging them up the aisle, to the busy couple with cell phones still glued to their ears, today's modern couple deserves a cake topper that reflects who they are. Have a self-proclaimed computer geek for a groom? Surprise him with a replica of himself in the form of the new Geek Cake Topper for a picture perfect match. Not a girly-girl kind of bride that wouldn't be caught dead in a dress? The new modern bride decked out in a pantsuit would then suit you to a tee. Even the soccer-mad and hockey enthusiasts are represented in cake topper form. Proving that your cake topper choices are nothing like the more staid choices of the past.

Wedding favors is another area where the tried and true can be replaced with the cool and the hip. Personalized mouse pads presented on their own or as the wrapping for a more traditional favor, brings the computer age to the forefront as a practical yet fun gift.

Want to prove to all your guests that "love" is the key? Show them with magnetic computer keys that spell out the word "love" with an all important "enter" key to match.

Another computer-aged favor, techno-savy couples are choosing are personalized keyboard dusters. Characterized as cute brides and flirty grooms, these handy little favors are yet another practical gift that are fun to give and will be remembered for years to come.

Modern fashion statements for the bridal couple is yet another way new trendy brides and grooms are making their mark on their wedding celebrations. Not satisfied to let just their car proclaim their "just married" status, today's bridal couples are saying it themselves with the aid of iron-on transfers that can be affixed to any piece of clothing or accessory. Add them to t-shirts, hoodies, hats or swim cover-ups as a unique way to tell the world that you're the bride, or that you're the groom and to shout to the world in general, you're getting married!

After the day is over while on your honeymoon, flipflops, sunhats and coverups that proclaim you're "just married" lets the rest of the world know, it's still all about you.

Today's modern couples see the world around them and like what they see. Incorporate that world with the latest in modern wedding accessories.
