This comes after their cake was shared on Reddit - and the design left people scratching their heads.
"My friend is a wedding photographer. Everyone thinks this is cute. I think it's gross," the caption alongside the
snap
of the cake read.
The cake didn't feature the classic bride and groom topper, but instead of standing side by side, the bride is dragging the groom away from his video games and snacks in her gown.
"Imagine spending 60k on a wedding and your groom would rather be playing video games," the Reddit user added.

It turns out they weren't the only ones who thought the cake was worse than tongue-in-cheek.
One commented: "All those 'ball and chain' references are so incredibly tacky and hurtful. If you feel like your life gets worse by getting married, don't do it."
And a second admitted they knew someone who took things to the next level, they explained: "They had a whole photoshoot with this theme.
"Most memorable were a photo where she is pulling him by the shirt as he tries to get away, and another of him clocking her on the chin while she smiles.

"Kept my mouth shut but in my mind I was thinking what the actual f**k."
And another chimed in: "My wife's family had this on their cake. Wedding song was Before He Cheats, food was a potluck, groom punched a guest and was taken by
police
. 10/10."
Georgia Steel slammed for wearing 'white' lace dress to Dani Dyer's wedding - with many stunned by her 'risky' frock
Meanwhile, others slammed the groom: "This is pretty damning for the dude."
"Imagine being proud of being a loser to the point that you want your f**king wedding theme to revolve around being a manchild who doesn't want to get married," they added.

And someone else bluntly wrote: "This tells me everything I need to know. They'll be divorced in two years, max."
But the couple aren't the only ones who were slammed for their controversial wedding cake.
Luckily, A

some of her top tips for choosing a cake for your big day.
She told

'There's no set price list, and each baker will price their work according to their own set-up. Some bakers charge per person, but most will base prices on the size of the cake, the detail of decorations required and where the cake is to be delivered,' said Annie.
She added that it's usually the decoration that will increase costs, and that if you want a seven tier cake you should be prepared to fork out four figures.
You don't want a cake so small that you can't give everyone a slice, nor do you want a huge cake that you are still going to have slices of in your fridge months later.
The important thing is to cater to how many people you have invited - if you have 100 guests you will want enough for everyone to have a slice, including yourself.

And if you still have some left over, Annie has one tip for minimising food waste, 'ask the caterers to wrap any leftover cake, and then take it home and freeze it," she said, "you can then have memories of your wedding for up to three months after it!"
Don't do this if the cake has already been
frozen
and defrosted though.
