Cell Phone Couple Cake Topper: Love or Leave?

If you're getting married, then I imagine you're spending a lot of time on your cell phone, but this much time?

These cake toppers are for the kind of geeks who are literally attached to their phones, so much so that their cake-gracing avatars must have them, too. I hope they're at least talking to each other and that this is not a new trend — I don't want to hear about exchanged vows via text message! It's not every day I tell inanimate objects to get off the phone, but come on (although they might be cute on a Kindle cake). What do you think?

    Maybe if they were holding one phone so both of them could hear. This cake topper is heading for a divorce before they even get a good start!

    I think they're funny. But I guess most people wouldn't want their wedding cake to be a joke.

    My vote is a hell no.

    I'm more of a monogram topper girl myself or no topper--into the more modern so maybe I'm biased!

    I think they are great for a joke...but to actually use on a wedding cake, I don't think it's very appropriate.

    i think they're a sad reflection on today's society.

    don't get me wrong, i love gadgets and would find it hard to live without my mobile phone, ipod, computer etc., but i think it's important to use all these things in moderation.

    i think these figures are inappropriate to use on top of a wedding cake as it's kind of saying that it is ok to have a gadget barrier between you and your spouse when i believe communication (especially face to face) is one of the most important things in a relationship. if it was clear that these two figures were talking to each other then that would be ok but they aren't even looking at each other.

    it'd be better if they switched places, at least they'd be facing each other.

    maybe they're on the phone to each other? Eye-wink As geeky as I am I had to go with simple flower toppers on my cakes. I just hated all the cake toppers.

    Sammi- I'm with you 100%!
    I love technology, but I find it sad that this is how people actually interact with each other. Sad

    When my fiance and I get married next summer, we will have dated for FOUR years LONG-DISTANCE (and one year actually together). So I have fond memories of being on my cell. Definitely gonna buy this to celebrate not have to do this sh*t anymore!!

    I don't like them. They look very closed off and distant from each other. Not a very good thing to represent on a couple's wedding day!

    Hells no. I won't my cake topper to be traditional or to match with my theme. To me, this cake topper makes a couple seem like they are too busy for other.

    I would definitely get a humorous tech topper like this, probably a custom one with a traditional Indian bride and groom playing X-BOX together.

    I don't have a problem with funny cake toppers but I feel like this one more says "We're a-holes!" more than it says "We're funny!"

    are you serious? like anyone wants to be tortured further at a wedding by a bride and groom who should really be taking vows to their phones and not each other. that's okay. i'm gonna say leave'em bob.

    they're witty but maybe more as a joke at an engagement party among close friends.... definitely NOT on the wedding cake! but the figures themselves are really cute. it's hard to find ones that aren't too plastic-y or just plain ugly. Smiling

    this is practical for a bridal shower or bachlorette party cake! it's right up there with that other topper (with the groom's ready to bolt) LOL!! also those "ball and chain" garters (if you're a "prison break" fan0.....for a wedding cake, i'll just settle for the traditional bride and groom topper.
