Atop the wedding cake you may also see the groom figurine dressed in military uniform while the woman is in her wedding gown. You can outrightly conclude that the groom is connected to the military.

But what if you see a simple figurine of the bride and groom ornamenting the wedding cake and there are small edible confection of tires that decorate the layers of the cake? Hmmm...
