The wedding day is considered to be one of the most special days in the life of the bride and groom. A video related to this occasion is going viral on social media. The reason for this is a decision of the groom, which has started a new debate online. In the viral video, after the cake cutting ceremony, the groom does not approach his bride first; Rather he feeds the first piece of cake to his mother. Then he feeds the cake to other family members also. In the video, he was not seen feeding the cake to the bride first. This has created differences of opinion among people on social media. The caption accompanying the video read, “Sorry, but the bride should have had the first piece of cake. On the wedding day, your spouse comes first.” This caption further fueled the debate.

What did people say?
Arya CJ Wrote that he has left his home and family to start a new life with you; Don’t do anything that will make him regret his decision. Your wife should be your priority on the wedding day. The Prophet commented that marriage is a bond between husband and wife; It is not a chance to show love towards parents or siblings, but a day when a new relationship begins. DeepState wrote that although it is good to love parents, the wife should not feel that she is secondary in the family on the wedding day. Avantika commented that it seemed as if the groom was telling his wife on the very first day what her place was in the family. Siya Srivastava wrote, “You bring a girl home after marriage, and the very next day she feels like a ‘side character’ – unbelievable.”
At the same time, many users also came in support of the groom.
Abhishek Singh wrote that the groom must have felt that this day was possible only because of his parents. “What’s wrong with it?” Rohit said that parents always come first; We are there because of them. Although the wife is important, she cannot take the place of parents. Ankit Mishra wrote that respect for parents is paramount in our culture. It is also important to respect the wife, but this does not reduce the importance of parents. Describing the situation as confusing, CM Ram wrote that if the groom had fed the cake to the wife first, the family might have been angry, whereas feeding the mother first might have hurt the wife’s sentiments; It all depends on the person’s perspective. Ravi raised the question why should this be a topic of discussion on social media to whom the groom will feed the first bite.
Some people advised not to take any decision without knowing the whole thing.
Kim Tae-hee claimed that in the video the bride herself is seen signaling the groom to feed the cake to his mother first. He wrote that it is not right to consider someone wrong without knowing the whole thing. Trilok Singh also suggested that the bride may have respectfully asked her mother to feed the cake before the groom.
Tanvi Deshpande raised a different possibility. He said that in many Hindu weddings the groom observes a fast, so he might not have eaten the cake at that time. Therefore, it is wrong to raise a dispute without complete information. Currently, this video is going viral on social media. However, it is not clear when and where the video was recorded. For this reason, many people are advising that people not jump to any conclusions before the full truth is revealed.
