120 kg will probably feel like a light breeze to you once you're done... 😁

And that’s precisely why I insist on keeping a massive selection of pastries in my restaurant... since we don't host any pre-event gatherings, nor do we offer anything to our guests once the festivities wrap up 😁

actually, hold on—how many guests are you expecting to host?

Arthur Thompson11 said:I honestly can’t wrap my head around why you all are getting so worked up over such nonsense. Personally, I think having a dedicated little corner just for cookies is a bit much—it feels almost excessive. At this rate, you won't even have any cookies left because everyone will be too self-conscious to go grab one, fearing they'll get judged for how many they're eating. Just put the cookies out on the table from the start and call it a day.

For me, the real perversion is having desserts sitting right there on the table at the same time as the soup or the main course—but hey, what can you do? 😁

It’s only natural that people will eventually make their way to the table (when the time actually comes for it; it seems ridiculous to me when everything is crammed onto one round table—the decor, the meal, the wine, the sweets—leaving absolutely no room for anyone to just eat in peace)... but even then, everything will still be laid out on that single table.

Besides, it isn't like everyone is going to be sitting down constantly where they can precisely monitor who is grabbing which pastry... 🤣 people will be moving about, dancing... a little dance, then a cookie... a little dance, then another... 😁 😁 😁 they'll see the bride doing it too 🤣

Honestly, people talk so much about this stuff! I don't think I've even eaten fifty desserts in my entire life... so they really don't mean much to me at all. And honestly, given everything else we had going on that evening, we didn't actually need them... I just find it a bit tacky having sweets sitting on the table when there's already meat and soup right there... plus, you generally know when it's time for dessert and when it's time for a real meal😂
So we ended up cutting them out, and somehow nobody seems to get what I'm saying... hellooo? Since John Doe is part of our group, there's always supposed to be at least one dessert sent over every single day🤣

For me, that’s more like a weekly requirement...😂

😲 😲 😲—so you aren't going to serve cookies to him or his family? Wow... how brave of you...😁

Adam Vaughn said:Honestly, my family would probably stage a full-on protest if I even suggested bringing out cookies 🤣 In our house, we always stick to a proper dessert right after dinner.

Honestly, I’d probably disown myself if there weren't any sweets at the reception.🤣 😁

My partner actually had this brilliant idea—brilliant, in his eyes—to just skip the cookies and pastries altogether because, well, who really cares about that? And look, I get it—you don't need to serve fifty pounds of sugar—but there's a point to having them... with a crowd that size attending the wedding, you know there are going to be people who absolutely require their sugar fix, or perhaps they just won't care for the cake, or maybe they simply prefer a variety of treats over one single slice of cake...🤷

I’ll be at my own dedicated table—honestly, it would feel just a bit ridiculous to have cookies sitting there alongside the decor, the craft beer, and all the other savory fare... though, if I’m being perfectly honest, I’ve always had a weakness for sweets... before lunch, after lunch, right after the main course, and even before dessert... and when it comes to dessert itself, 😁 anything goes 😍

Nathan Cox25 said:At an American wedding I went to, they had this whole dessert spread on its own table—you could just help yourself whenever you wanted. If there wasn't anything left, I’d either go hunting for more or just wander straight into the kitchen to grab some myself.😁

well, that’s exactly how it’s going to go here too... 😍 personally, I need to have those sweets within my line of sight at all times 😁 😁 😁 everything else is practically irrelevant... 😁
