Hi, I have two questions in one. First of all, when cutting the cake, are we supposed to cut the top tier or the bottom tier? Secondly, which leg should the garter go on?

Hi Alicia,
Firstly - Congratulations! Wiht your cake cutting - you'll usually go for the bottom tier, as it's a good height - if you were to cut the top tier of a 5 or 7 tiered wedding cake it's quite high! Even with a 2 tiered cake, you'd generally cut the bottom tier, especially if you're going to keep the top tier. But having said that - these days you really can make your own rules, if you want to cut into a different tier and it doesn't feel/look awkward - then go for it!
I'll leave the garter question for an expert to comment on, but at my wedding in may this year, I wore my garter on my right leg. I had two made - one to wear and keep, and one to toss for the garter toss.
Happy Wedding planning!
