No, not at all. This is very much a modern and perhaps temporary fashion.
Historically the bride cuts the cake to symbolize the loss of her virginity but now Bride & Groom cut the cake together as one of their first acts as Husband & wife.
The bride holds the knife and the groom places his hand gently over hers as a symbol of support and guidance.
They then cut and remove the cake slices before the groom tenderly feeds a slice to his bride to demonstrate his commitment to providing for her.
The Bride then reciprocates to demonstrate her commitment to nourish him. This tender and romantic act of affection and symbolic promise to forever assist & care for one another.
This symbolic act has however somehow evolved into couples shoving the cake for a bit of fun however, rather than a first act of unity, it might result in the couple first argument as husband and wife.
Once the bride and groom have fed each other, they then share their wedding cake with their guests as a gesture of good luck and affection.
