Wedding Candy Buffet

Candy Buffets have become so popular it’s unbelievable.  When I got married 9 years ago, no one would have ever thought to have a candy buffet instead of the traditional pastry buffet or a midnight meal buffet (if you’re having an Italian wedding) .  I would have preferred the candy buffet, it would have been such a hit with my family and friends.  Who doesn’t love candy or chocolates?

If I were to have a candy buffet, I would definitely stick to colors that enhance my wedding theme.  You could go crazy with all the selections of candy out there, and very easily stretch yourself out of budget .  Choosing candy in your wedding color tones will both enhance your wedding theme and be very classy.  Don’t forget the candy bowls, bags and candy scoops.  The little details add so much to the table presentation.

I love this idea, how about you?  Do you love it or hate it?

Here are some great ways to add lanterns to your wedding.

1.  They can be used as a centre piece.  This would be lovely for an afternoon, but especially an evening outdoor wedding, or a wedding on the beach.

2.  You can hang lanterns from the ceiling.  I love this look, it really transforms the room into your own intimate space.

4. Ceremony Pew decor:  At last my favorite!  I saw this elegant idea on Intimate Weddings‘ blog and had to share it.  It’s so simple, yet adds so much to the room.
