1. Facing away from your guests. Your family and friends are all at your reception to enjoy and share this special event with you. Make sure to face them so that they can see the action.

2. Slicing the cake without your wedding photographer. Cutting your wedding cake without ensuring that your photographer and videographer are ready will prevent you from getting fantastic photographs. Be aware of your photographers and videographers.

3. Positioning your cake against a wall. The wall restricts the movement of your wedding photographer and therefore, the angles at which your photographer can capture the moment are limited. In addition, this will make it difficult for you to avoid blunder number one.

4. Rushing. Your wedding is special. Enjoy the moment, relax and take your time. If you focus on enjoying it, everyone else will, too. Your emotions will show in your pictures as well.

5. Smashing wedding cake into your bride’s face. Nothing will wipe the smile off your future ex-wife quite like smashing a bunch of cake in her face. This could be embarrassing and also ruin her makeup. Avoid this blunder at all costs.

Bonus Tip: Show off your wedding dress during the cake cutting! Having the bride closer to the photographer than the groom will allow for full body pictures which will capture the entire dress!

Wow! Now you can plan to avoid blunders while slicing your cake and ensure that you and your guests enjoy the moment! Follow the tips above for success!
