Wedding Cookie-Grams Really Deliver

By: Karen Sullen

The ways in which we deliver our messages has really changed over the years. First there was the telegraph, then the pony express, and finally the postal service. These were soon followed by fax and email. Each change brought speed and automation to the way messages were sent. Many couples are taking advantage of these advances by emailing their "save-the-date" notices and even their wedding invitations. But for others, these methods lack the personal touch desired when inviting guests to their wedding or friends to join their wedding party. Couples looking for a different way to keep the personal touch in their invitations might be wondering, "What is the sweetest way to invite our bridal party to participate in our special day?" Why, the cookie-gram, of course!

Yes, sending a personalized invitation on a cookie is a unique and memorable way to get the message across. But these are not just any cookies. Each shaped, hand-decorated cookie is gift boxed, and most designs can even be delivered directly to each recipient's addresses. How can friends say no to such a sweet invitation? Available in designs for almost every member of the bridal party, these sweet message cookies really hit the spot! Here are a few of the themes:

Bridesmaids: Cookies shaped like elegant evening gowns come in a rainbow of colors with the question, "Will you be my bridesmaid?" printed on the front. Almost every detail of the delicious cookies can reflect your wedding, including the color of the dress, message and skin tone of the "bridesmaid." Messages can be customized for Maid of Honor, Matron of Honor, and Junior Bridesmaid. It's the perfect girlfriend gesture.

Flower Girl: Your little flower girls will love receiving this sweet flower! Its bright-pink petals are the perfect way to ask, "Will you be my flower girl?"

Ring Bearer: Symbolic of the wedding ring itself, these round cookies that feature the question "Will you be my ring bearer?" are also a special treat.

Groomsmen: The groomsman on this cookie is dressed for an elegant affair with tuxedo and tails. While this cookie is not personalized, it does include a hangtag that can carry your message.

If these cookies haven't satisfied your sweet tooth, then continue your cookie theme at the wedding with personalized cake-shaped cookie favors. Just like the invitation cookies, they can be decorated in your wedding colors and personalized with your name and wedding date. It's a delicious ending to a sweet beginning!
