In 1945, Alfred Eisenstaedt captured the moment when a sailor returning from World War II took a beautiful nurse in his arms and kissed her passionately in the middle of Time's Square. After the photo ran in Life magazine, it became world famous and is still well known to many people. As a U.S. Navy seaman andoo a nurse, you have a unique connection to that romantic image, and we can bring that special scene to the top of your wedding cake with one of our Classic Sailor and Nurse Pose Wedding Cake Toppers.

Our Classic Sailor and Nurse Pose Wedding Cake Toppers bring that moment from Eisenstaedt's photograph to life, recreating the pose perfectly. The groom sailor figurine in our Sailor and Nurse Kissing Wedding Cake Toppers design has one hand behind the bride nurse's head and the other on her hip. He dips her backwards, and she lifts one foot off the floor as he leans in for the kiss. Her fingers touch his kerchief, while her other arm hangs at her side.

Because our WWII Sailor Kissing Nurse Wedding Cake Toppers are made to order, we can personalize them in any way that you wish. For this example design, we made the figures both brunettes to resemble the bride and groom. The groom's U.S. Navy uniform also bears copies of his shoulder chevrons and chest badges that we created using photographs. The base of this Sailor and Nurse Kissing Wedding Cake Toppers figurine set was also custom made with a mint green color and a gold name plate to match the couple's wedding colors.
