If you’re not married, you probably didn’t pay much attention to which songs are played during cake cutting. Here is a list of what I think are some of the top cake cutting songs brides are choosing.
If it’s a well-selected song, it blends in seamlessly, tying together that perfect moment, the cake cutting, for bride and groom. The song starts as the cutting of the wedding cake takes place and can continue as the couple feed each other the first slice as husband and wife.
Just as important as picking an elegant wedding cake or the right photographer, is the song selection for the cake cutting.
Choosing the perfect song can be stressful and even overwhelming. You want a lovely song that expresses the style of the bride and groom while tying together the cake cutting ceremony beautifully.
Here are some tips to help you choose the right song:
- Pick a song with bride and groom in mind and nobody else
- Try picking a song that’s not overplayed
- Look at songs by genre or year
- Don’t be afraid to think outside the box and pick a really different or fun song
- Don’t overthink it too much, as the song is background to the cake cutting ceremony
