Muses,
My sweet wife, the curator, contributes the following:
OK, I'll weigh in with my one experience. My Mexican American friend
here in San Antonio, Texas always makes one specific kind of
sugar/cinnamon cookies for weddings. She says that it is a family
tradition and they have to be homemade. The cookies are not on a cookie
table per se, but are available after the food and before the cake. For
one son's wedding, I think that 3 or 4 of them were put into small bags
to take home as favors. I've been to a number of Mexican American
weddings but these are the only cookies I remember. However, there is a
regional cookie (butter cookie with pecans and powdered sugar) known as
Mexican wedding cakes that is available at every Mexican bakery, so maybe
there was a tradition that is dying out with the exception of my friend
(who is a tradition bearer in general).
