You mean excessive sugary sweet mediocre chocolate on a stale sugary sweet cookie base? They are mediocre beyond belief, and contrary to what some people think, not that common or popular in Baltimore. Some people really do like them but I would never put them on a good cookie platter.

Fixed that for you.

Never heard of guests contributing. Also never heard of store bought cookies on a cookie table. But it sounds like a really
Nice contribution.
Nice contribution.

I guess bakery cookies would be okay. Most of the cookies will be homemade.

I don’t think guests usually bring cookies? Generally the family or caterer takes care of this.

If they taste good it is fine. Are you sure guests are contributing? I think usually the family takes care of it.
