Wedding Cake Etiquette
There is a protocol to the handling, cutting and serving of wedding cakes. This
is hardly surprising because just about everything in a traditional wedding is
governed by etiquette and protocol. Many couples, no matter how formal or
informal the wedding is, most wedding couples try to observe wedding cake
protocol. Protocol for wedding cakes includes the following: |
La Baguette & L'Echalote Bakery
604.684.1351
1680 Johnston Street, Vancouver, BC |
|
The cake should always be displayed at the reception on a beautifully decorated
table. It should be in front of the bride’s table and set so that while it’s is
on display it does not block a view of the head table. An ornamental knife
should be placed on the table. |
Notte’s Bon Ton
604-681-3058

|
Protocol demands that the cake must be cut at the right time in the reception.
For informal ceremonies and receptions this means serving it after the guests
have been received and toasts have been given. For formal ceremonies it should
be served after the main dinner. |
True Confections

An announcement that the cake is to be cut should always precede the actual
cutting of the cake, this allows mingling guests to view the ceremony.
The bride should hold the knife in her right hand and the groom should stand
slightly behind her with his right hand covering hers to make the cut, the first
slice should be fed by the groom to the bride and the second bite should be
offered by the bride to the groom. |

After the cutting of the cake and the first bites, a family member or member of
the catering staff should cut the serving slices.
The cake should be served with coffee or the beverage of the guest’s choice,
guests should also be offered the opportunity to box up their piece in a gift
box to take home |
