Hi, Liz --
In this article it's called a Midwestern tradition but it goes on to say the cookie table at weddings developed in the northeastern Ohio/western Pennsylvania area (hardly Midwest, imho)
http://weddingservicesreceptions.suite101.com/article.cfm/the_cookie_table
You'll find quite a few links by doing a google search of the phrase "wedding cookie table" with the quotation marks or you'll get deluged
with references.
I've seen pastry tables at various receptions and bar/bas mitzvah's but I've never seen one nor heard of a cookie table before. My experiences at weddings have been limited to New Jersey, Wisconsin and Ireland and all have relied on local bakeries for the traditional tiered wedding cakes.
