Music to Slice By


The Happy Couple

So…what song to pick for the cake cutting?

Glad you asked 😉  From our experience, the cake cutting song differs from all of the other special wedding  songs in that it does not need to be danceable.  When we posted our song list to the BPM website, we omitted some music favorites because they simply weren’t danceable.  So, if you have a favorite song that you can’t quite dance to, be it a classic tune, a quirky song, or a personal favorite, why not consider it for your cake cutting?  Make it work for you.  Photo courtesy of  Robin Ganter for Classic Photographers.
