Instead of cheese/fruit and cracker trays for appetizers... this could be fun? Opinions please.

I think the skewers and cups are super cute, but if you're planning to do all of the prep yourself, I would save your sanity and go with simple, even if it feels blah. If you stress yourself out, you might feel frazzled and blah, which would be way worse.

I bet there are ways to display things really easily but in a very cute way that does not look blah..........can you use cake stands or tiered servers? I think those make anything look more exciting.

Oooh love the PBJs as a late night snack. Maybe even with a little glass jug of milk. You could even do a couple variations - like PBJ, banana nutella, etc. Nom.

And your menu sounds pretty sweet and spectacular to me!

That is SUPER cute- LOVE the variation of the pb&j's! And I could just get a cart of those little milk boxes or jugs to go w/them. I REALLY love that. I am def doing this now.

I love the PB&J idea. Anything in miniature form is always a hit. You could even serve little shots of milk with it.

Why not do a skewer theme, cheese and sausage ones would be awesome... the different flavors of pop corn is great too! Don't over think it... people will hopefully just be having a great day/evening with family and friends.

if you do the cotton candy check out http://flosszone.com/ I tought they had great prices.

My venue includes a huge cocktail hour but I really want to include these:

You could always try putting different levels on the table, and putting the cheeses and fruits around it. You could use a bread bowl to put the dip in.

You can do the skewers and put them into red cabbage. It would be colorful

PBJ sounds good! And so does your menu!! Don't fill people up too much before dinner because it sounds delicious

Love the popcorn idea but would ditch the cotton candy in favor of fruit
