Who takes the (wedding) cake, and why

Is feeding cake to each other a public display of nurturing, or a preview of how well a couple will resolve those   conflicts that inevitably surface in every long-term relationship?  Does a joke carried too far prompt retaliation? Or is this a reassuring  glimpse of how good-natured and playful they can be and how they'll achieve peace and harmony?
You decide.  Whatever the case may be, it's always a suspenseful moment for wedding guests who enjoy watching this amusing tradition and sometimes theatrical performance unfold.
Did you and your mate have a pre-nuptial agreement about the cake-feeding part of your reception? Were you surprised?
