Tacky!! I am all about elegance. This is something that would be fine if you were playing at home, but come on. I want my husband to be gently and kind with me.

Hate it. First, its a little passive aggressive for my taste. Second, why would you spend all that time and money on hair and makeup just to have cake smashed into it? I wouldn't necessarily call it trashy. But its definitely unnecessary. A little childish for an occasion such as a wedding. This is the first day of the rest of your lives together, not a scene from America's Funniest Home Videos. I'm all for having fun at your wedding, but that's just inappropriate.

Trashy. You spent all that time looking good...who wants cake smashed in their face? Not to mention how much the cake cost... I would be in tears if that happened to me.
What's adorable is watching a couple feed each other a bite of the cake. To me that shows that they are willing to care for each other and that they respect one another.

Hate it!! I would be so pi**ed if my fiance smashed cake in my face and ruined my make-up, dress and hair!! You should have more respect for the person that you're marrying than that. But there are also some couples that decide they're going to do that and may be okay with it, as long as you don't do it spur of the moment, if you have already talked about it then you might be a little more prepared for that. My fiance already knows how I feel about this and has agreed not to do it, so that's one less thing I will have to worry about : )

Horrible.
The proper tradition is that the couple feed each other a bite of cake as a symbol of the way they will now care for one another as a married couple.
How that got perverted into a food fight, I'll never know.
Also, I will never forget the wedding I went to where the couple got hit with a huge extra cleaning fee by the B&B where they got married because their food fight left frosting ground into the carpet and spattered on the wall. It's way too easy for these things to get completely out of hand.
I'm betting her gown cost a lot more to get cleaned, too, since there was bright red frosting all down the front when they got done.
Yeah, they managed all that damage with one slice of cake.

I don't like it. At my cousin's wedding, her husband smashed the cake into her face and it got on her dress. She burst into tears and ran out. I'm not sure how often it happens that the bride gets that upset - but why risk it on such an important day?

I think it's idiotic. The guy can just go wash off his face, but the girl will have to redo half her makeup. The last time I attended a wedding where that happened, the groom really plowed it into her face. She was major pissed off, had to go wash her face off (it was even up her nose), and was noticably ticked off for the remainder of the reception. It made for a very awkward time for all of the guests.

Trashy...there's no need for it and why waste the cake just to make a mess of yourselves? Why spend hours getting ready if you're going to get cake in your hair and on your makeup? It's more of a hassle than anything else.

It's about the most disrespectful thing you can do to your new spouse. You get married because you love, respect, and honor each other. How does smearing food all over your beloved's face say love, respect and honor? It's an aggressive move that shows underlying hostility and desire to dominate and humiliate. Not the kind of marriage I want.

I can't imagine a bride wanting no more than cake smashed embarrassingly in her face, but on this most expensive dress she so painstakingly chose.
It is one thing if the couple agrees that this is to happen; but for one to 'spring' it on the other, teeters on the abusive.
Why would you want to embarrass the one you just vowed to love above all others?

I think its tasteless. There is no dignity in the act of smashing a cake into someones face on such a glorious day. I don't know how it got started but I think its time to stop it.
