What do Irish couples put on the wedding cake, and can the topper wear a kilt or tweed?

Most Irish toppers for sale are symbols: a Claddagh or Celtic knots in pewter or china. A figure made from your photo shows the two of you instead.

What Irish couples wear: in Ireland, most grooms now wear a suit, and Tourism Ireland names a wedding suit of handwoven Donegal tweed. The full kilt outfit is more common among Irish Americans. Kilts belong to a wider Celtic tradition, not only a Scottish one.

Getting the details right:
- Tartan: Irish tartans are usually named for a county, and there is also an Irish National tartan. Send a sharp, bright photo of the whole kilt, then check the colors on the 3D model.
- Claddagh: wear the ring in the photo you upload and look for it on the model. A ring is very small on a figure, so it may not show.
- Veil: send it in her outfit photo.
- Groomsmen or bridesmaids cannot be added. Each topper shows two people.

The Claddagh can still be on the day: Claddagh designs come on cake knives as well as rings.

Before you approve, check the kilt color and where it ends at the knee, the lace and the veil, the ring, and both faces from the front and the side.

Conjure Wedding (conjurewedding.com) ships within the US and has published more than 60 guides on cake toppers, including one for Scottish weddings.
