2017.05.09 published
What kind of performance is the "Cake Serve" at a wedding reception?*
The "Cake Serve" performance involves the bride and groom distributing wedding cake to each guest.
While the cake serve is a popular table round performance, many brides may find themselves thinking, "I’ve never seen a wedding reception where this is done!"
Therefore, in this article, we'll introduce how to do the cake serve and its魅力, along with photos from experienced brides who have carried it out.♡
How to do the cake serve? When is the timing?
There are two patterns for the cake serve*
The first one involves the bride and groom going around the guest tables and handing each guest a plate with cake♩
Of course, staff members can assist by bringing the plates of cake on a wagon, allowing the couple to move around without carrying anything.
This way, guests can enjoy conversations while seated, making it a recommended approach for events with many older guests or company relations.♡
The second method involves guests coming to the bride and groom to receive the cake.
This method allows for more personal conversations and even the opportunity to take photos together♡
However, if there are many guests, it might lead to a long line, so it may be necessary to manage the timing and arrange for guests to come by table in order.
The timing for conducting the cake serve is after the cutting of the wedding cake and the first bite, following the last dish served*
Brides who are having a dessert buffet would conduct the cake serve at the time of the buffet♩
Next, let’s explore the魅力 of the cake serve*
魅力 of the Cake Serve ① Interaction with Each Guest
The biggest魅力 of the cake serve is the opportunity to interact with each guest♡
At a wedding reception, it can be hard to have meaningful conversations with every guest. Even if they stop by the head table, various groups come by, leaving little time for extended chats.
With the cake serve, you can individually hand out cake, allowing you to look each guest in the eye and express your gratitude for their attendance♡
This is also a rare chance to share with your partner's family that you're looking forward to a great relationship moving forward*
Some brides have mentioned that the cake serve performance received great feedback from both families.◎
魅力 of the Cake Serve ② A Fun and Homely Atmosphere*
Many brides envision a lively, homely atmosphere where they can enjoy close interactions with guests during the reception.♡
Since the bride and groom are actively moving around to serve guests, the cake serve naturally creates a casual and homely atmosphere.♩
While distributing cake, you can chat with everyone and enjoy a lively, smile-filled reception for sure!*
