Cake Cutting

Just like in any other wedding, a traditional part of the wedding reception is the Cake Cutting where the couple share their first task as husband and wife. Itโ€™s a romantic part of the wedding reception, and it is only fitting to choose the perfect song to celebrate this! The song you choose for the cake cutting should be fun, a bit romantic, and even sentimental.

You could stick with classic songs such as โ€œHit Me With Your Best Shotโ€ by Pat Benatar and โ€œCut the Cakeโ€ by Average White Band, or something a bit modern like โ€œYummyโ€ by Justin Bieber. No matter what song you choose, always remember to have fun with it!
