Ehhhh.... says who? If it's what the bride and groom want, who are you to say that it's not allowed? As long as it's not offensive or something involving poor etiquette, it's the bride and groom's wedding - not the guest's. They're still providing you with cake, it's not like they're leaving you with a dixie cup of punch and a few peanuts. Just because it isn't big, white and boring doesn't mean that they can't have it.
Now, I agree that the fake cake is a bad idea, but why can't a wedding cake allow for more individuality? I personally dislike boring, plain white wedding cakes. Actually, I'm not a huge fan of wedding cakes in general. They cost a ridiculous amount, they're fairly boring looking, guests just get a sliver, and it isn't all that good at all. When I get married someday, I don't even know that I will have an actual wedding cake (the horror!). I will certainly be looking into alternatives
Groom's cakes are fun. We don't really do them up here in Pittsburgh. Probably because with the cookie table, there's already enough sugar. I've been to a wedding with a HUGE cookie table, a chocolate fountain, and cake. that's a recipe for a belly ache!
