The Wedding Cake - Is it the Most Important Part of the Wedding Reception?

Now the answer to the question in the title of this article is definitely arguable.
With some thoughtful discussion many answers will arise from different perspectives, and there really is no right or wrong answer to it in the long run.
There are varied perspectives, however.
With respect to the previous statements, the wedding cake is definitely important to many aspects of the wedding ceremony.
Though buying one is not required to get married, having one during the reception will help build the happy atmosphere of the wedding.
What is more, it is believed by many people, that the practice of having a cake goes all the way back to the time of the Roman Empire.
Furthermore, the cake brings with it a certain significance that no other wedding object can can fully express.
Many couples respect tradition by having a cake during their wedding.
They even go to greater lengths by making sure that the cake stands out! One way that they accomplish this is with wedding cake decorations.
These decorations are not limited to stuff that you can buy from stores.
You can create those decorations yourselves if you feel like you have a creative flare about you, or you can describe what you have in mind and ask your cake maker or your cake decorator to make them according to your wishes.
With the recent explosion in cake design and style, about the only limitation you have with you decoration is how limited your imagination is.
Finding wedding cake supplies should not be hard.
With the advent of the Internet, you can do so from the comfort of your own home.
You can individually check out different cake supply websites, one by one, or you can find websites that have already done the work for you.
These sites are called review sites.
Going back to the original question, I guess then the answer is, maybe.
The cake is one of the most important parts of the reception.
Without one, the reception may be viewed as incomplete to some people.
To other people it could also amount to a certain degree of disrespect to tradition.
Imagine people talking about your reception many days after the wedding.
Are they discussing your commitment to each other or are they talking about the fact that there was no cake? You also will not be able to experience certain rituals that come with having a cake.
You will not be able to cut the cake, share it with your spouse and smile in front of the camera while doing so.
Can you imagine missing out on this special moment? It clearly depends on your perspective.
Someone once told me "A symbol is never more important that what the symbol represents" I think it is true in this case.
