As for other desserts, the sit-down meal with courses (and wedding cake for dessert) is a fairly new thing around here and is still far from universal. The "traditional"reception is a stand-up affair with lots of finger foods and small serving foods, including a number of sweet foods other than wedding cake—cookies, small tarts, mousse, etc.
But no cookie table.  |
Ooh, I think I like that idea--that way you don't have to make the difficult decision about which to choose (although sometimes they go ahead and give a slice of each on each plate; nice so you can have both without having to sneak back to not look piggy). One of my bridesmaids was from Chicago and had never seen a groom's cake at a wedding. She thought it was genius to have chocolate cake at a wedding!
