Some stories sparkle. And sometimes, they shimmer with pearls.
Recently, Gloria reached out to let me know how their 30th wedding anniversary celebration went. She and Albert threw a party at the iconic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk—surrounded by more than 50 of their friends and family—and right in the middle of it all was a cake. A lovely little thing dotted with buttercream pearls and crowned with a custom topper I made for the occasion.
The topper itself is a clear acrylic, rimmed in a ring of pearls, with rich red lettering that feels celebratory without being loud. Paired with the simplicity of the cake and the elegant white orchid, it was romantic in a timeless kind of way—classic with a wink.
But what really stayed with me was Gloria’s message:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Just wanted to share the pearl cake topper was a hit and conversation piece amongst our 50+ guests at our anniversary celebration this weekend at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk! Thank you for a great job. Amazing topper & good job! Keep up the good work!”
That right there is why I do this.
These toppers aren’t just decorations. They’re little keepsakes that celebrate something big. Whether it’s a wedding, an anniversary, or a birthday, each one marks a moment that matters. And in Gloria and Albert’s case, it marked thirty years of love, partnership, and all the life that happens in between.
I’ve been making toppers like these for over a decade now—handcrafted, personalized, sometimes a little sparkly, always heartfelt. Some are quiet and simple. Some are bold and full of color. But they all share one thing in common: they help tell your story.
And stories like Gloria and Albert’s? They deserve to be seen. Celebrated. Topped off with something a little special.
So if you’re planning a celebration—or just want to mark a moment—you can find this pearl anniversary topper and more in my Etsy shop:
