Cake pull question!!

@Malei that one definitely wasn't done right. Typically you choose who will do the cake pulls prior to the wedding day and have that many pulls. I've never seen a wedding with extra ribbons.

@Katelyn That makes sense. It's never done here so maybe that's why that was the first and last time I've seen that done. Haha! I thought it was a game or something until the garter toss happened right after that so I figured it took the place of the bouquet toss... which it was.

Sounds like it could be really fun! I agree to skip the high chair charm or anything baby related though because it could be too sensitive for some people.

Very interesting - never heard of this before.

Plus some people may consider a baby charm a curse

I've never heard of a cake pull.

No help but that is such an unique idea!

I've never actually seen it at a wedding; mostly at showers. I think it's sweet.

The weddings I have been to there have usually been 8 doing the cake pull. Another NOLA bride here! Not doing a cake pull, though.

Wow! I have never heard of a cake pull. I may try it at mine

Sounds fun and classic. Do it however your heart desires.

If you have more women than there are different charms, would you have 2 of some?

I have heard of this before and think it would be fun!

Thanks for all the advise everyone! Glad to hear that some people have done it with their married ladies Also, thanks for reminding me about the baby charm..I will definitely be removing that (or maybe somehow arrange it secretly so I get it, haha...we'll be starting looking into IVF/adoption soon after the wedding). I'm excited to do it! I guess I'll have to see which friends actually RSVP yes before I get final numbers. I think the bakery requested them like a month in advance, so I have time

I plan to know ahead of time who is going to participate, so I can arrange for the correct number of pulls, but I'm still debating if I should let the girls know ahead of time, or have the DJ surprise them in vivo?
