Almost every single wedding I have gone to, both here, the Bahamas, and the
US has had fruitcake for their wedding cake. Whether it was called a grooms
cake or not, I don't know.

Sherry is also another alcohol to consider. I don't think I would recommend
actually putting it in the cake as one of the ingreds, but to marinade the
fruits, and for cheesecloth soaking, it sounds like it would be very good.
YMMV
