Observing the bride and groom thrust cake into each other’s faces is a long-enjoyed tradition for Prescott weddings, but there are many more fun wedding cake activities to think about as well.
One new option that’s increasing in popularity in Prescott is to have cupcakes instead of a cake. This is usually cheaper than having a cake and it can be a good deal of fun. Cupcakes are decorated in alignment with the wedding theme, just as a cake is, but the cupcakes are instead organized on tiered cake plates and exhibited on a cake table until it’s time to eat them. The cupcakes can be merely passed out on plates to each wedding guest.
You can construct activities into the cupcake presentation. For Instance, the cupcakes for the bride and groom might have a different ornamentation from the ones for the guests. For fun, you can have the Prescott bakery include a special prize in one or several of the cupcakes.
Many guests are under the impression that once the cake is cut, they are free to leave the reception if they so wish. Since cake cutting usually comes after the meal and after dancing and other traditional celebration activities, many people take the opportunity to leave the party after the cake is cut and enjoyed.
If you want your guests to stay after the cake is consumed, it is worthwhile to build some activities into the cake-cutting event so guests will stay around. As an example, each person could receive a slip of paper with thier piece of cake. The slips of paper might give instructions for the rest of the evening or might ask the guest to perform a short dance, to give the groom or bride a kiss, or ask them to take the flower girl out on the dance floor for a whirl. The element of the unknown ought to keep the guests guessing and provide some amusement as the instructions are implemented.
Add a little creativity to your wedding and it will be an evening to remember for everybody.
