Observing the bride and groom thrust cake into each other’s mouths is a long-enjoyed custom for Prescott weddings, but there are numerous more fun wedding cake activities to consider as well.
One more recent alternative that’s gaining popularity in Prescott is to have cupcakes instead of a cake. This is normally less expensive than having a cake and it can be a lot of fun. Cupcakes are decorated in alignment with the wedding theme, just as a cake is, but the cupcakes are instead organized on tiered cake plates and exhibited on a cake table until it’s time to consume them. The cupcakes can be simply passed out on plates to each wedding guest.
You can construct activities into the cupcake display. For Instance, the cupcakes for the bride and groom can have a distinct decoration from the ones for the guests. To keep things interesting, you can have the Prescott bakery hide a special prize in one or several of the cupcakes.
Many people believe that once the cake is cut, they are free to leave the reception if they so desire. Since cake cutting usually comes after the meal and after dancing and other traditional celebration activities, many people take the opportunity to leave the party after the cake is cut and enjoyed.
If you want your guests to stay after the cake is eaten, it is worth it to build some activities into the cake-cutting event so guests will stick around. As an example, every person could get a slip of paper with thier piece of cake. The slips of paper might give instructions for the rest of the evening or might ask the guest to perform a short dance, to give the groom or bride a kiss, or ask them to take the flower girl out on the dance floor for a spin. The element of the unknown will keep the guests guessing and provide some amusement as the instructions are carried out.
Add a little creativity to your wedding and it will be a night to remember for everyone.
