FI is currently at bachelor party and will be gone this whole weekend (42 days left till the wedding!) which leaves me sitting at home over-thinking wedding things again, haha. Current dilemma: when you have cupcakes instead of traditional wedding cake, do you still serve it at a specific time? We will have a small round cake at the head table to do the cake cutting thing, but should we just have the cupcakes sitting on the cupcake stand at the back of the reception room and guests just go up and grab them? Or is there a better way to do this? Last wedding I was at was a seated dinner and we were brought the cake by the servers. We will be having a buffet and catering staff, but since the cupcakes are from an outside baker and not the caterer, I don't really know if they would serve them. We will have 3 or 4 different flavors, as well, so it seems to make more sense that we would just have them set out so people can choose. Would people just know to go and start getting cupcakes once we do our cake cutting?
Also...the more I think about it, the more I think I might nix the round cake at the head table and just have cupcakes for everybody. I would honestly be jealous of my guests if I ate the round cake instead because these cupcakes are phenomenal, so this is partially a selfish thing haha. But do you think having the "cake cutting" is important? I don't know how I would do if if we just had cupcakes.
PS: I am not very good at wedding things. I have been to 5 or 6 but paid attention to nothing. I also tend to stress out about stupid things. Help is appreciated.
