I have grown up in Houston, TX, and never heard of a cookie table but love the idea! Wish I had known about it for my wedding. It is something I will definitely suggest to any future brides that I know!

I have not heard of this tradition before, but I think it is a marvelous idea.

Not something I had heard of before, but it sounds very nice. I lived for several years just south of Pittsburgh,my parents and sister still live there.

My daughter got married in Nashville in Sept, and there was a cookie table. The groom's mother made her son's favorite: peanut butter, and I made hearheart-shaped sugar cookies.

And, yes, there were little bags for guests to use to take home cookies. My daughter had a little poem attached to each bag, but I can't remember it.

yes there are chocolate fountains too! and I have recently seen several receptions where cupcakes replaced the tiered cakes. this is so funny to me. I just thought the cookie table was as common a practice as the cake.I guess I need to get out more! haha My little world is growing . . . keep em coming ladies; I am enjoying hearing of family and regional customs. Thanks to everyone for your input!
