Weddings

A wedding cake is no doubt, one popular symbol of a wedding. Cutting the cake is one of the highlights of any wedding and a beautifully adorned cake is something guests would surely anticipate. That is why part of the long wedding preparations of the soon-to-weds is to find the best cake for the wonderful occasion.

With all the pastry shops offering made-to order wedding cakes, couples can enjoy choosing from a wide variety of options. But it is always nice if you can find a unique cake for the occasion. Also, it is highly recommended that couples choose a cake with a good wedding cake top. Cake toppers ranges from the traditional porcelain couple figurines, to a dove of love ornament. It is necessary that the couple choose the ornament themselves as it would serve not only as a cake decoration but as a lifetime souvenir of the event as well.

Step 1:
Time the cake cutting as appropriate to the type of reception. If you are having a cocktail or tea reception, serve the cake after the guests shuffle through the receiving line; if you plan to throw a lunch or dinner reception, present the cake after the meal.

Step 2:
Gather the crowd and announce your intention to cut the cake, either verbally or with a reprise of the song that accompanied the couple in their first dance.

Step 3:
Cut with the groom’s right hand over the bride’s. Slice through the bottom layer of the cake together.

Step 4:
Feed one another from the slice. Traditionally, the groom feeds the bride first, then the bride serves the groom.

Step 5:
Serve slices to your in-laws - with the bride serving the groom’s parents, then the groom serving the bride’s.

Step 6:
Have a preordained friend or the catering staff serve the rest of the guests.
