Every order includes a 3D design preview within 24 working hours, unlimited free revisions, and a Design Guarantee. Wedding cake topper figurines start at $499 with free worldwide tracked shipping on orders over $149.

Can You Include Your Pet in a Wedding Cake Topper?
For a lot of couples, the pet is family too — so it's a natural question to ask before the big day, not something to assume either way.
Can a pet be included in a wedding cake topper?
Yes — your pet can be sculpted alongside the two of you in the same wedding cake topper scene. Clear reference photos of the pet alongside your own are all that's needed.
Does adding a pet change the size or pose options?
Adding a pet doesn't limit your pose options, though the composition may shift slightly to keep proportions balanced at cake-topper scale. Our Digital Sculptors will show the full arrangement in your free 3D design proof before anything is printed.
Does including a pet cost more than a standard couples topper?
Yes — since it adds an additional subject to sculpt and print, including a pet typically increases the price above standard two-person pricing. The exact adjustment depends on the pet's size and pose complexity.
Can the pet be positioned at the couple's feet instead of held?
Yes — a seated or standing pose at ground level next to the couple is a common composition for cake toppers, and works well at the scale most wedding cakes use.
What if my pet has since passed away — can it still be included?
Yes — this is a meaningful and common request. Send your clearest available reference photo of the pet along with your own wedding photos, and our Digital Sculptors will compose the scene thoughtfully. See Custom Pet and Owner Figurine Together — The Complete Guide for more on combined scenes.
