Will you be smashing some wedding cake in your spouse's face? Or do you have explicit "no cake in my face" rules already established?? Smiley tongue

    A resounding NO! I don't find it cute, nor funny. My H flat out said it's so disrespectful.

    Nopeeee. Not only would it hurt (crumble coffeecake up your nose??? No thanks) but it just seems genuinely disrespectful. I told my DH about the tradition and he was like "why?!"

    No cake in the face! I'm paying to get my hair and makeup done and I'm already going to put my mental energy into not getting my dress or face messed up. I don't need him to do it for me Smiley xd

    No way! I already knew he wouldn’t but I brought it up just to make sure. Neither of us want to or would do it.

    Nay! We did not do this at our wedding. I don't think it's fun at all plus why ruin your makeup.

    That will not be happening. I'm not paying $125 to have my makeup ruined by my FH smashing it in my face.

    My in-laws had a small engagement party for us and got us a cake. My FH smashed it in my face and it got in my hair as well. I was livid and told him if he does it at the wedding there will be hell to pay.

    Heck no. I'm not spending $100+ bucks on my makeup for it to be ruined by some cake... plus it seems really disrespectful to me.

    Absolutely not!! I think it's so disrespectful.

    I'm paying to have my hair/makeup done and would be so angry if my hubby ruined it by smashing cake in my face. Thankfully, he's on the same page as me.

    NO! I don't want FH to mess up my makeup or hair. I'm paying way too much money to have it ruined by cake.

    I don’t think it’s disrespectful, it’s all in good fun, however I’m not having my hair and makeup ruined...
