How To Cut A Wedding Cake?
Cake Cutting Ceremony
Use a knife and not a server for a quick clean cut. And really, you need a small slice for two bites. Ask the venue if they provide a cake cutting knife and what options there are. Perhaps you have something nice you can bring from home or borrow from your parents?
It is traditional to cut from the bottom tier. This is for aesthetics for the picture. When the couple holds the knife together and cuts into their first cake as a married couple, it looks nicer if the tier they are cutting is about waist level (maybe a little higher).
