We went to a wedding and reception last Saturday night. It was beautiful! The food was out of this world delicious! But they did not cut the cake until all the pictures were taken, the couple had their first dance, until they toasted whatever and on and on and on!! By the time they cut the huge, beautiful and I know expensive cake, most people had left the reception. I DID stay around for the cake, because really, that's what I go to a wedding reception for is the CAKE!
As we said our good byes and well wishes, the bride was begging us and everyone to take some cake with us. We declined of course because we really don't need any cake at our house! But I felt sorry for the family that now had to deal with this huge, beautiful and I KNOW expensive cake!

AFTERTHOUGHT:
People, please don't wait to cut the cake.
Please cut the cake towards the beginning of the reception or party! I have seen time after time people trying to give cake away because they have waited until the end to cut it,
just trying to be helpful here,
you know, just sayin...

Yes, I agree. Cut the cake. At my wedding that was the first thing we did, before eating, dancing, or any of that other stuff. I love cake, too.
Ok, you got it...my next wedding, we'll cut it as soon as we hit the door.
Just kidding, I agree. I haven't been to a wedding where they waited that long.
Wedding cake is my favorite cake...love that almond flavored cake.
Great cakes, each with its own personality, my fave is carrot cake with cream cheese icing,mmmmm.:-)
I love me some good cake too. Robin has a strawberry cake recipe posted on her blog today...you should check it out. I'm definitely trying this cause it will soon be strawberry season here. Blessings, SusanD

I love cakes!!! Those were all great pictures.
It's really not fair to have a huge beautiful cake sitting out teasing everyone.
Yummy post. I love them all. That is such great advice about the cake. Thanks.
I SOOOOO agree! I am all over cake.
You had to post all those cake pictures, didn't you? Now I am going to have to swing by The Sweet Shop when I go out and get a slice of Smith Island cake. Heck, I am going to get a whole cake.
We had sheet cakes that we cut and put out right away for all the guests - Everyone loves cake!!
What gorgeous cakes -- I am more of a pie person. My daughter did not want a cake when she got married, but I MADE her --for the whole photos and things. It is a Big expense actually.
I loved your comments on my blog about the chandelier etc. You can come to my house anytime, especially if you are willing to eat hot dogs and tater tots ---my kids grew up on french fries and applesauce.
your awesome

We cut ours pretty early (only one couple had already had to leave) but we still have a tonne of cake left over. I just made a very big cake! :)
