Around here, groom's cakes are for the rehearsal dinner, never for the reception.

I don't like chocolate cake, but my mother was adament that the grooms cake, by tradition, had to be chocolate. I remember well when we were meeting with the caterer:
"The groom's cake has to be chocolate."
"But I don't like chocolate cake."
"But it has to be chocolate."
"But I don't like chocolate cake."
"But it has to be chocolate."
"But it's a groom's cake. I'm the groom, and I don't like chocolate cake."
Finally, the caterer mediated, asking me some very specific questions about what I don't like about chocolate cake and about different kinds of chocolate cake and he came up with a chocolate suggestion that was acceptable to everyone.
And I did like it.
As for rental cakes: beyond tacky.
