A video of a groom forcefully smashing his bride’s face into their wedding cake has gone viral, drawing strong backlash from social media users. The incident, which was posted by the account ‘The Best’ on Twitter, shows a moment that was meant to be celebratory taking an uncomfortable turn.
In the clip, the newlywed couple is seen holding a knife together, cutting the cake while guests cheer with a countdown. However, the mood shifts suddenly when the groom pushes the bride’s face into the cake and continues to laugh, clearly thrilled by his prank. The bride, in contrast, appears shocked and visibly distressed, wiping cream from her face while her husband tries to high-five guests.
Online Reactions: From Outrage to Mixed Opinions
The video sparked a massive debate online. Most users condemned the groom’s behavior, calling it insensitive and humiliating. One outraged viewer wrote, “There is no way my husband will do that to me, they are newlyweds, immediate divorce.” Another added, “She needs to get an annulment right away. What a low POS.”

Many expressed concern over the bride’s apparent discomfort, with a user noting, “He tried to go for the whole face and she pulls away. That’s a sht move on your wedding day. To your wife.”*
One user even questioned the absence of parental intervention, saying, “Why her father didn’t come in full speed from the side by flying a side kick is why this was allowed.”
Some Defend Groom’s Actions as a Joke
While the majority found the act distasteful, a few users came to the groom’s defense, labeling the backlash an overreaction. “If you can’t have fun at your own wedding by doing things like this, then maybe you people shouldn’t say anything at all,” one user said. Another jokingly admitted, “I couldn’t have done this to my wife.”
Despite the few defending voices, the overall consensus online suggests that what was intended as humor turned into a moment of public embarrassment for the bride—one that has left social media divided over where to draw the line between fun and disrespect.
