To cake face or not to cake face?

Samtam, on December 13, 2016 at 02:35 Posted in Wedding reception 0 20

A new trend has popped up over the past few years that my husband and I refer to as "cake face" or "cake smash." Gone are the days where couples feed each other that first slice of cake. Instead they smash it in each other's faces!

What do you and your fiance plan on doing? Smiley winking

My husband and I both agreed to feed each other cake nicely. (One of the many ways I knew we were perfect for each other!) And we both stuck to it! It was actually really sweet because our nephew/ring bearer came up after we cut the cake and my husband fed him a bite too. So adorable!

We did have some friends though that got married a couple weeks before us and they had both agreed not to cake face but then the bride went rogue! Haha so you never know what's going to happen!

    Maybe if you set some ground rules and keep napkins on hand, you could do a tiny cake smash! But I'm with you! We didn't want to do it.

    My fiancé was hopeful for doing a cake smash but I am very reluctant to do so. I dont want to ruin my hair or makeup or get anything on my gown

    Haha we were kind of the same way! We were both like "if you do it then clearly we don't know each other at all!"

    Oh lord- no linking! I would stab his poor face i'm sure!

    Yeah- I think I want to avoid it. Maybe we can both take a bite at the same time...but neither of us feed one another or anyone else very often, I see disaster.

    Haha yeah it did take a little coordination to feed each other! Some people do the thing where they link arms and then feed themselves but I don't think I could ever pull that off! (plus it looks uncomfortable)

    HAHA that's like the same talk I had with FH!

    And I know what you mean... I feel like it would feel really weird, but it looks cute.

    No caske smash! - I agree with Melissa; it wouldn't sit well with me if FH does it.

    Although, it is one of his groomsman's birthday that day sooooo he can get caked and i'd be fine with it haha

    I have told him in no uncertain terms I'll fucking kill him if he ruins my makeup and makes my face all sticky! He was ok with that Smiley smile

    I'm also debating if we will feed one another. I think it looks sweet, but I would feel pretty weird about it. I don't much like doing those cute things, especially with people watching!

    Definitely no cash smash for us! Feeding each other is a little cheesy to me too. (You guys look super cute tho Smiley winking

    We will cut the first slice together and thats about it I would think.

    I never like the idea of cake facing a person at wedding, especially for the first slice you share together as newlyweds. I would rather feed him and for my FH to feed me than do that!

    No cake smash for us. I wanted FH that I'm paying a crap ton to get my make up done and if he smashes cake in my face I will murder him!! He's also very aware of my vengefulness and knows if he went for it I would get him back ten fold (no lie, when we forest started dating he threw an ice cube down my shirt and held my shirt so I couldn't get it out... so I the a bucket of ice water on him when he went to shower... he learned early not to eff with meSmiley winking )
