Cake Cutting Song

Kristine, on July 13, 2014 at 5:57 PM Posted in Planning 0 15

I am looking for an upbeat cake cutting song. I want it to be cute and meaningful but I want the guests to be able to keep dancing while the cake cutting is going on. I don't really want a slow song because it takes time away from people being about to dance. Any song ideas?

    No, but we just ordered our cake yesterday, which got me thinking about this exact same question. We're meeting with our DJ next weekend. I figure he will know exactly what will work. Are you having a DJ/Band? They should be able to give you recommendations.

    I was really liking Build me up Buttercup for that, but I'm fighting with my fiancé on that one lol. He says he doesn't like the lyrics because they are about a bad relationship. I don't like the typical songs, and I think it's a very upbeat song!

    Karen, I am using a DJ. Yes, I would probably ask him for some recommendations. We have a 2 year old son that loves the song All of me by John legend and I was thinking of doing the techno, upbeat version of the song for the cake cutting and have our son with us. It'll be a special moment for all 3 of us. Would this work?

    "How Sweet it is" - James Taylor

    "I'm Yours" - Jason Mraz

    "All You Need is Love" - Beatles

    "That's Amore" - Dean Martin

    "Happy Together" - The Turtles

    "Grow Old With You" - Adam Sandler

    "Candyman" - Christina Aguilera

    "Sugar, Sugar" - The Archies

    "Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch" - The Four Tops

    "Marry You" - Bruno Mars

    For actual cake cutting, I'm just having the DJ play instrumental music. But right after we make the cut "Get this party started - Pink" is going to play as a break the ice to get people moving.

    This isn't that upbeat but I'm using "everything" by Michael Buble.

    We are using "I Choose You" by Sara Bareilles. It really describes how I felt when I found my FH and how everyone told me the guy I was searching for didn't exist (I had a list of looks, intelligence, talents, and habits that my perfect man would have), but he did!

    We are using "You rocked my world" by Michael Jackson. We both love it and it is upbeat so people can keep dancing.
