Wedding Cake Cutting

When it came to the cake cutting, our wedding planner suggested that we do this earlier rather than later. In her experience (and in mine), many older guests like to wait for a slice of cake and then head home before the reception gets too rowdy. We cut the cake about 45 minutes after dinner was served, and boy oh boy, we were too excited to try a slice of this deliciousness.

We also agreed beforehand that we would not smash any cake into each other’s faces or start a cake war. These types of food fights make us kind of uncomfortable when we attend weddings, so we definitely didn’t want to do that at our own!
