How important is a cake/cutting to you?

I love cake. I looooove cake. I would probably be pretty disappointed at no cake, honestly, because I loooooooooooove cake. That's one of the only reasons I go to parties is for cake, no lie.

As for the cutting of cake? Meh, I wouldn't care. I want to do cake cutting at my wedding but I wouldn't care if you didn't do it at yours. I think as long as you have some good donuts I wouldn't be bummed. But I do love cake.

A lot of people do cake cuttings in private with the photographer anyway while others are still eating/preoccupied. It's a tradition that's going away. If YOU GUYS don't like cake, don't do it. I don't think you'll regret it.

Don't care about it at all as a bride or guest. We didnt have a cake. We had an ice cream sundae bar

As a guest, I never notice the bride and groom cutting the cake.

As a bride, I don't care at all about cake. We're serving cheesecake for dessert. It'll be cut and plated by the caterer.

We are doing dessert assortment - cheesecakes , cupcakes and cream puffs and doing a small six inch cake for us to cut. Best of both worlds.

We chose not to do a cake cutting, we didn't feel it was necessary.

It was one of the traditions I really wasn't willing to skip. I am a huge cake nut and couldn't wait to do tastings and pick my cake design. Honestly, I get disappointed if there's no cake at weddings just because you expect it and get excited about it and then you're craving it. The one wedding I went to that didn't have cake I made DH stop on the way home to get me a cupcake because I couldn't stop thinking about it.

I have seen weddings where the cake barely even got touched and one particular one I remember how upset she was because of all the money she spent. I guess it's different strokes for different folks. I don't eat wedding cake because I feel like they all taste the same and not good but that's cause I don't like cake lol. The donut place we are getting ours from I have been going to for about 30 years and it's very well known in our area so people are pretty excited. These donuts will make you forget all about cake.

I wanted to skip all the traditional stuff except the first dance but FH was NOT having it. So we are going to do the first dance then move straight into the tosses then straight into cake cutting so we can get the party started as fast as possible. I think if you don't have one people might notice because they feel like they can't leave until the cake is cut, but I don't think it will ruin your wedding for a guest if you don't.

Could not care less, as a guest. My brother had a big, fake cake at his wedding. It wasn't till I was actually eating my slice that I suddenly realized, "Hey, I didn't see them cut this!" and then noticed some people packing the fake cake into a box. Anyway, still had a good time at the wedding and they are *definitely* just as married.

We're doing the cake cutting because we both want to do it and we like cake. But I also like a really good donut, too. Oh, hell, let me be honest, I like just about any dessert--except cheesecake and tiramisu.

For anyone who thinks they'll have a lot of cake left over, I could send my cousin Kate to your wedding. She brags about taking home armfuls of wrapped wedding cake slices! For her birthday one year, instead of a birthday cake, her sister bought her a small wedding cake. Really.

Could really care less if I see the couple cut the cake. However, I am doing it but mostly bc I just LOVE cake. As long as there is something sweet at the wedding then I'm good!

The tradition is important to me. We are having two cakes, and I would expect it at a wedding as a guest.

I am but I wouldn't care if a couple decided not to.

I really wanted to do a cake cutting, so we're having a small cake just for that. We'll put the rest away for our 1 year anniversary! We are, however, having a sundae bar since I LOVE ice cream so much. If it wasn't for the cake cutting, I would do away with the cake altogether.

I don't enjoy cake but FH does.

We're not having cake. Our caterer is making stuffed churros for dessert. Neither of us care about cake cutting but I wonder the same thing if people will miss it.

We did the cake cutting and it made for some really cute photos, plus, the cakes were delicious! I've been to weddings in the past where the cake sucked. Too dry, too dense, bland, etc. As long as your cake doesn't commit those sins, cake is awesome. I have an aunt who is unmarried, and she swears that sleeping with a slice of wedding cake under your pillow makes you dream about your husband. I don't think it works..... And I don't know how it would work logistically either. She takes a slice of wedding cake from every wedding she attends; it's kind of embarrassing. I told her she was welcome to take a slice of our cake but not tell anyone why, other than it is just delicious!

I like to watch couples smash cakes in faces

Maybe you guys can feed each other donuts. I don't think it's so much about the cutting as it is tradition and photos

We're doing a cake cutting, but just of the wedding cake since we'll have that and a grooms cake. You should do what you want though. Too often we get hung up on trying to make the day into what will please others. I'm learning the most important pool to please are myself and my fiancé.
