[MWS] Can't interact with wedding cake cutting

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.85.203.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but Journey to Batuu and Decor to the max kit.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Setup a wedding Ceremony, have your sims get married (it may happen (I haven't tried) if they haven't exchanged vows yet). Place the wedding cake on a gravy fountain platform and your sims will say they can't interact with the item when they try to cut the cake with spouse.
What happens when the bug occurs? My sims can't cut the cake with spouse.
What do you expect to see? My sims cutting the wedding cake during the ceremony to fulfill the "Cut the Cake" activity.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Not sure it happened before the patch that got released on March 15th but definitely after I bought My Wedding Stories game pack.

When I tried moving the cake a dining table or counter the interaction will just disappear.  I did move both tables to an open area, but my sims still can't interact with the wedding cake. I also did try this without mods on and still got the same error. The screenshot is when I tried without mods in my game.

    No birthday cakes work fine for me and the interaction is not greyed out, also when I did test it on a table, it was a square one.

    No, I did play with a mod that helps with MWS, and I was able to do majority of the wedding fine, as buggy as the pack is, I can do everything else with the wedding cake but cut it with spouse. 

  • I do currently have MCC in my mods folder so I am not sure how valid my observations are but I noticed that outside of the wedding ceremony my sims can cut the cake just fine when it is placed on the center slot of any normal (4 seats) dining table. During the ceremony the option is given but the second sim just won‘t react to it. When you try to place a preselected wedding cake on a table via the pie menu during the wedding ceremony, it is also not placed properly and the interaction is greyed out.

    In general it seems to me that a lot of the wedding interactions work fine unless you start the actual ceremony event. I was building a venue (a park) to have a wedding at and while building-and-testing most things worked (sending sims down the aisle or cutting the cake for example) which absolutely didn’t work anymore when I started the actual ceremony.

    I tried MCC but it just breaks my game more lmao. Outside of the event, the interaction is still broken for me or greyed out. Yes, during the ceremony I had the wife sim try to cut the cake, but the husband wouldn't react to it, but I did not select it as my wedding cake for the ceremony because when I do, the cake disappears and never comes back for the ceremony. It won't even show up on the planning menu for the actual wedding. Sending sims down the isle kinda worked..I had both sims go down but they would just walk back up immediately.

    @mightyspritesims I actually didn't try it before at the wedding, I tried it on their home lot with both the gray fountain and square/round table but I got the same result

    It is now 2024 and i still have this problem too. I redid my sims wedding 5 times but no matter what i tried or did, (with and without topper, moving cake to different table etc.) i did not get an option to cut the cake. I had asigned the cake as weddingcake. The option just was not there.Maybe important info. I originallly  had put the cake on the round  table with kind of a stand that was already on the lo (can't remember the name of the lott in Tartosa.. It said to put the cake there. Also the assigned witness i send to the aisle imediately came back down the aisle to talk with his brother (the groom) . I had to tell him numerous times to go there and had to be very quick with sending the bride and groom down the aisle because he left his spot again to try and talk to the groom again.
