Really Random Cake Topper

How tall is a cake topper supposed to be? I found one I love on Etsy that's 4 inches, and that seems entirely too small (I'm insane I have a ruler in front of me when I'm shopping to measure the dimensions). I'm thinking about asking the seller to make it 6-7 inches tall, but what's 'standard'? I feel like I should err on having something too big than too small.

Help!

the one i've been looking at is 3.5' high. 7' wide. now you've got me worried LOL

the ones at the store (michaels anyway) are at least 6-7 ' i think??

watch out for weight too!

Shoot, I didn't even think about weight!

As far as letters are concerned, I would think 4' Mightbe the initials of the first names and 6-7' would be the center last name initial of a monogram. How does that sound?

I think it really depends on the type of cake topper you use. I ordered mine through etsy, its not a letter or monogram, and its 3.5 inches tall

That makes more sense. The listing I saw was just for the first initial of the last name. I'll probably message the seller and ask it it can be 6-7 inches.

it all depends on the types of cakes your hall makes. if they have a standard style or not. you need to have a good sized base
