However, no matter how many times I browsed through the St. Lawrence Antique Market and the vintage stores in Kensington Market, I couldn’t find something appropriate. I only found things that looked like this:

Not exactly what I had in mind. Now that we’re less than 3 months out I was starting to get a bit concerned. Luckily I have Weddingbee to help me. I was looking through Weddingbee, and hive member extraordinaire Bakerella’s wedding pics. And while I thought all her details were gorgeous, I was particularly jealous of her cake topper. Five seconds after I mentioned liking it, she offered it to me, and of course, I said yes!

Here’s the gorgeous couple (I love the bolero):

I’m so happy about using this cake topper because (obviously) I really like it and because I love the fact that it was used in another Weddingbee reader’s wedding. This community is so fantastic and while so much of my wedding is going to have been influenced and shaped by Weddingbee, it’s nice to have a tangible reminder of how much Weddingbee has been a part of my wedding experience.

What’s the story behind your cake topper?
