Candy table

Elizabeth, on June 14, 2019 at 8:11 AM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 15
Is anyone doing a candy/ cake table for their reception? I’d love to see some real life examples (I’ve seen a ton a Pinterest but was hoping for some other unique ideas).
we will probably also have a cotton candy machine to go along with it also.

    I don't have any pictures but we bought a few different types of large bowls and containers to put ours in. We got 2 similar to the picture below and a couple of other styles. We bought some bags on Amazon and some little plastic scoops too. The candy we decided on was M&M's, Skittles, Hershey kisses, and popcorn. We're doing cupcakes too.

    We aren't having a candy bar, but we are planning on having a large jar of M&Ms in our colors. I picked up a large glass jar at Gordmans and some super cheap scoops from Party City.

    This was my good friends donut table. We are likely doing something similar for our wedding.

    We are doing cake and chocolate chip cookies on one table and I am thinking of doing some small candy also. I have some cute treat bags and cheap plastic scoops.

    We are also doing a popcorn bar with different seasoning shakers and m&ms and I am not sure what else to be mixed in.

    We will be doing different glass jars. The popcorn will go in closed glass containers to try and keep it fresh.

    Our candy table was really simple, but apparently a big hit because the only thing we had left to take home were the M&Ms Smiley xd

    I don't have pictures of the setup but we are doing a dessert table. Donut towers instead of a cake, a s'more's bar and cookies!

    I’m pretty sure the variety of photos you’ve seen on Pinterest cover most examples. There aren’t too many new and unique concepts when it comes to candy and dessert tables because they’ve been done for so many years.

    Nope! Crazy thing is, candy buffets are my side hustle! (see attached) I really wanted a dessert buffet, but my venue is particular on outside vendors and only has the store bought variety Smiley sad
