Cake toppers have ventured way out of the traditional it seems like. Just about any thing you can think up you can find for a cake topper. Here are some of our choices:
Animals

Although the moose in this picture don't really seem right it could be fun if they were more personalized. I often call Bobby my old crab (long story that I will have to share at some point, bottom line is we say a sign that says old crab lives here sometime near Bobby's birthday a couple years back and since I always tease him about how he is old it just stuck) and he often calls me squirell after seeing me in my AU graduation garb in the wind and claiming I looked like a flying squirrel.

We could also do something tied closer to the beach theme of our wedding. These sea gulls are cute and remind me of something out of a Disney movie but they aren't really what I want, I think.

Doves or love birds are kinda tradition and I like the non-traditional slant to these. In the wedding colors they could maybe work.

Although I have avoided most of the traditional elements of a wedding I kinda like these traditional birdies. We will keep them as a possibility but I ultimately think they are out.
People

These are kinda cute but seem a little too cheap looking to me. Fun part of this idea is I could make them myself and make them look like us.

I guess these little wooden people are popular. These are cute cause they are more beachy looking.

This one so far is my favorite. Something like this personalized to look like us (and maybe include our sweet puppy) so far is the winner, assuming Bobby likes it and I choose to even use a cake topper.
i actually like the wooden people, except the woman looks like olive oil from popeye. anyway, saw this cake today and thought it was gorgeous, with yet another nontraditional cake topper:
