    Hmmmm I'm stuck on what to have for a cake cutting song and I need a little inspiration - nothing sappy!!

    And if you are feeling extra helpful a garter/bouquet toss song would be fabulous as well  :o)

    Thanks for the help  :o)

    For cake cutting, we are using Island in the Sun by Weezer. For the bouquet toss, I think In the Ayer by Flo-rida...lol or Man Eater by Nelly Furtado

    Dean Martin - That's Amore for the cake cutting

    Oddly enough neither of us can recall what was playing for the garter toss. It was the DJ's choice but I never paid attention to what it was. We didn't do a bouquet toss.
