Smooshing On Your Wedding Day, Do or Don't?
You're big day is finally here! You've said your "I-do's, indulged in some delicious food and drinks and now everyone's grooving on the dance floor having a great time. There's only one big part of the night left (in our opinion the best part!) Time for.....wedding cake!
Your beautiful 6 tier vanilla cake looks absolutely stunning but now it's time to dig in. Everyone is ready for the traditional cake cutting part of the wedding ceremony. You cut the cake, and you're about to feed your partner... but now the big question arises: To smoosh or not smoosh? Do you gently feed each other or take the other route and smash it all over each other's face? Most likely, you will have talked this over with your significant other before. However, sometimes to smoosh or not to smoosh can be a completely spontaneous decision, which makes it more fun!
Here one groom explains his experience. "We had a small wedding and during the event we were both reserved. Then the cake cutting time came and something clicked. Handfuls of cake went through the air and onto both of our faces. All of our guests roared with laughter and we got the best action filled snapshot!"
Another bride said, "He smashed a little bit of cake on my nose and kissed it off, everyone thought it was cute!"
However, some grooms might find themselves sleeping on the pull out couch during the honeymoon. One bride mentioned, "He smeared raspberry cake and icing all over my face! I could have killed him after the fortune I spent on my makeup!"
Occasionally things can get out of hand with couples smashing their beloveds' faces with beautiful decorated icing. For others, it's more of a playful fun spontaneous thing.
So, to smoosh or not to smoosh? It really depends upon the couple. Not following the "rules" is what makes the cake cutting unforgettable. This ritual can turn into an entertaining affair with teasing, laughter and affections shared between the newlyweds. It's your big day, so you decide what feels right at that moment. Whether you tell your hubby to "not even think about it" or decide to be spontaneous, have fun with it! This age-old ritual of cutting the cake will be a memory to last a lifetime.
