Dialogue: Cake Presentation Event?

Holy cold mornings! I cannot believe the drastic temperature change just after Labor Day weekend! Of course I'm used to fall in Oklahoma so I expect Fall here in the Florida panhandle might be nicer. I am anxious to see what the cold season is like here.

We all know that when people go to a wedding they want to see the kiss, the bride's dress and THE CAKE! I really love cake so much that it really was important to me to have the best cake I could ever want. I had the whole backdrop with lights, a special marble table, and had it all set on its own so that it can be reveled in its glory. Though I didn't get the cake I wanted, I always have to share my resentment on that, :-(

I recently came across a different idea for displaying the cake. Maybe it isn't so different but as much as I love cakes, I was surprised that I didn't think of this when I was getting married. A Cake Presentation Event!

Changing the music, dimming the lights, putting on the spotlight like when you do your first dance. Having the cake hidden until it is wheeled out to be seen by all and giving the time for people to take pictures of it, just before you go up to do the Cake Cutting.

Seriously, if I had the means at the time of my wedding (and my actual cake) I would have definitely done this! Of course this does take more party time away if you are on a time constraint from your venue. I guess removing some events like certain dances and the bouquet/garter toss, etc. can allow for this if you really wanted it.

So, let's have fun dreaming about cake! Tell me, would you do a Cake Presentation Event? Is it overdoing it to give the cake so much emphasis? Are you totally into this idea? Or do you think it is not really worth it? Do share!
