Serving wedding cake alongside buffet or boxed up to give to people as they leave?

I was at a wedding recently and din't fancy any cake when it was put out, then later (after too many wines!) we wanted some, we grabbed a waiter and asked where the cake was and he bought us back a plate with a MOUNTAIN of cake on it for the two of us! (Honestly it must have been half a tier!?)

That story wasn't helpful, I know.

Ooh i never thought about this. We are cutting our cake at the reception and we have some cakes at the buffet and a candy cart as well

Not sure what the norm is, are you meant to box it up and give it as they leave? Or take it round the day after? I couldnt be bothered visiting everyone and giving them cake the next day. Ill have to find a dedicated box the cake up person at the reception, hmmm, not sure anyone will want to do this lol

I think if anyone were allowed to go near my cake Id probably have it cut and put into boxes for guests to take at the end of the night, maybe you could do that but leave some out incase anyone did fancy it, depending on how much cake your having.

Could you give people the option? Leave a few boxes near the cut cake, so people could take it away with them if they want to enjoy it later?

Thanks everyone, yeah maybe i'll get half boxed up and half put out
