The Touching Moment of Wedding Cake Cutting＊

The moment the bride and groom cut the wedding cake at the wedding reception is a happy time filled with many camera shutters clicking and words of "Congratulations!" being exchanged＊

During the cutting, a large knife specifically for cake cutting is used, and many brides decorate this knife cutely♡

Although it is used only for a moment, the photos from the wedding will last a lifetime. The brightness of your hands is surprisingly important＊ Many brides reflect later, "I wish I had added some decorations."

Here are some cute knife decoration ideas using flowers and ribbons from experienced brides♩
