A little bit of history
Wedding cakes have been present at wedding ceremonies for centuries. They were not always the focus of the event and often came in different forms, like pies or bread. The wedding cake was originally known as the brides cake therefore the color white became common because the cake needed to reflect the bride.
The tradition of the bride and groom cutting the cake together came as weddings became larger. The royal icing on the surface of the cake had to be thicker to help support the weight of the tiers above. This led to the bride not being able to cut it by herself and the groom would assist the bride in this process.
Once this tradition began the bride and groom would share a piece of cake before distributing it to the guests to symbolize their union and their promise to forever provide for each other.
