Engraved Cake and Knife Server Set

Hi Brides! I'm almost done with booking all of my major vendors for our special day. I'm now down to buying all the little things that we need to complete the day. Cake is a major part of the wedding reception. Is having your cake and knife set engraved a thing or does it seem to be going away from tradition now? I'm fine with a classic silver cake and knife server set. What did you guys do for cutting your cake?

    Thank you! I see where some people take detail shots of their cake with the server set and knife

    Those are BEAUTIFUL! I love those! I'm going to check and see if Etsy has some in silver that are similar to this.

    I suppose if having a picture of your cake and knife serving set is important... then certainly go for it.

    My mom gifted this to me for my bridal shower and it was engraved. This is something that I have usually seen gifted so I would watch that your mom or MIL aren't planning to get you one.

    We decided not to bother. It doesn't seem like a big deal any more. We did get toasting flutes, though honestly I'm not sure why, since neither of us really drinks. LOL

    We used the ones the venue provided and they looked fine. We received forks as a shower gift that matched our decor so we used those and they were used in our photos with the cake.

    Awesome! I would have never thought about that. I'll wait till my bridal shower to see if my mom or MIL purchases one for us.

    I agree Susan, more people are going away with the traditional customized engraving wedding items.

    We’re going to be using the same ones FH’s parents used at their wedding.

    This was one of the first things I bought as soon as we set our date. I ordered them from Lenox and they are engraved. They were about $40 but I got them for 50% off during a sale so it was a really good deal and great quality.

    We ended up borrowing a set from family since we didn’t have our own and our venue/caterer didn’t have a set (our cake was from a different vendor). No one sees them, so I say either use what they have or buy a cheap pair since it’s not that big of a deal.

    My future husband and I aren't planning on spending the money on it. We did not have plans of displaying it in our home after the wedding so we're planning on using what our venue has. But I have had a family member recently ask me if I purchased one yet, so I have a feeling I will be receiving an engraved set at my bridal shower, haha.
