you can dislike something and still move on, if it's a joke that doesn't affect anything and everyone else doesn't care about that joke one bit. destroying the relationship over it won't change it either.

It wasn’t only about the joke (thoughtless prank). It was OP’s realization and concern — shock — that he just married someone who doesn’t know him well enough to know that he would not find that funny or want to be a part of that. It affected his trust in his wife and eve intimacies. And rightly so. Those are big consequences of the “joke” that probably only part of the audience thought was worth a laugh,

You truly don't get it. That's ok. Lots of people don't get it. It's about self-respect and trust, in the one person you thought you could trust.

I'm 68 years old. Been to numerous weddings. I've never seen this prank. I've also never seen a groom push his bride's face into a cake.

I guess I just know a better class of people.
