The wedding cake may be centered on the Bride's table or on a separate table.

The cutting of the wedding cake is a highlight of the reception. It is traditional for the bride and groom to cut the first piece of cake together.

The feeding of a piece of cake to each other is customary, but optional. If the couple chooses this option, it should be done with dignity rather than smashing the cake in each other’s face. One must think of not embarrassing or angering your significant other on your special day. However, if both parties have agreed in advance, have fun, it's your day.

A toast to each other may follow.
