Freezing Wedding Cake
"There was no saving of the wedding cake in the freezer for a year. At my first wedding, our cakes got demolished by accident (oooo, an omen!). At my second, we actually forgot to cut the cake after the civil service held in our living room with our three closest friends there to witness it. I don’t remember what happened to the cake later, I’m sure we just ate it."
Why? Because they don't want to follow every standard traditional thing?
If someone tells me that they don't understand some tradition a take them as an illiterate person. You don't need to follow, but understand? Just research it.
You can choose what you want.
