Edible treats and favors are always a hit with party guests; whether offered at a bridal shower, a lunch or dinner with bridesmaids, the rehearsal dinner or wedding reception, you can bet that your nearest and dearest will appreciate having a little something edible to indulge their sweet tooth with later on.
Recently, I came across adorable cookies from the Whimsy Cookie Company, located in Memphis, TN. Now, for those of you who are fans of the hit movie The Blind Side, you probably remember NFL star Michael Oher’s little sister, Collins, played by actress Lily Collins. Fast-forward to 2013 and Collins Tuohy is now the co-owner of the Whimsy Cookie Company, along with founder Laurie Suriff, who used her mom’s delicious sugar cookie recipes to start her company. As Collins recalls, “I knew after the first time I tried Laurie’s sweet treats I wanted to make sure everyone had this magical dessert experience. I became partners with Laurie, and from then on, we have been taking the sugar world by storm!”

Their company offers an amazing variety of custom-designed, hand-decorated cookies shaped as wedding gowns, wedding cakes or rings.
They also have heart-shaped, thank-you and wedding date cookies:
Monogram cookies are always popular:
And who wouldn’t love these bride and groom cookies?
You can even order bridesmaid dress cookies in a style and color of your choice:
Each cookie comes wrapped individually in a cello bag and is tied with a matching ribbon.
And here’s another thought: Instead of a groom’s cake, why not order cookies to be displayed on a tray or given as favors that represent his favorite sport or team? Now, that’s a sweet idea he’ll love (and I bet big brother Michael loves these Ravens cookies!):
