We decided to make our own wedding cake topper (if possible) to stay true to ourselves, save $$, be original, and to have fun with it and I feel we have been successful so far. This is definately a PROJECT IN MOTION at this point, and not close to finished...but I think it looks great! Once we do more to it and paint it and all...I think it will be great. What do you think so far?

Thank you all for your comments!!! The big day is Sept. 24th of this year and I cannot wait!!!! we are going to go on a 2 part trip instead of going to Hawaii...we are gonna do this:
In October- we will be going to Halloween Horror Nights at universal studios, Disneyland, and any other fun parks/ect that we want. Then, we will be going to the AMAZONIAN REPTILE EXHIBIT where everything is for sale and it is like a full fledged reptile and amphibian museum! After that, we are planning to walk the Hollywood strip and do whatever we want and go wherever our hearts content, and then finally we are going to go to the LA zoo! Thats one trip out of 2!
THEN in June- we will go all the way down HWY1 (which is beautiful) to San Diego...and go to this great (but very much ADULT haha..) hotel that we know of and spend the night and wake up and go to the reptile super show there (I'm so excited)!!!!! The TWO days after that show...we will stop at SeaWorld nad then our last stop will be at the San Diego zoo!
DOESN'T IT SOUND AMAZING???!!!!!!!!!
ANYWAY.....back to the topper---------->

NOT DONE YET, but alot is done. We have to fix small details, give them mouths and features and nostrils ect... and cover them in a non-toxic gloss spray. PLEASE COMMENT AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK SO FAR!!!
