Create fun and style at your wedding reception with a candy bar!

What’s the best way to break the ice and get guests in the mood to have fun and celebrate at your reception? Create a stylish and interactive candy bar in your wedding colors!

We’ve put together an eye-catching and refreshing candy bar to give you great ideas. We’ve included:

• lemon-flavored and yellow-hued candies

rectangular vases 

black floral ribbon 

square votive holders 

black favor boxes and chiffon favor bags for guests to fill with candies

personalized ribbon tags 

 

How to you create a candy bar that’s perfect for YOUR wedding? First consider your wedding colors and find candies in shades that coordinate (and in different flavors and textures to keep guests coming back). Then gather together an interesting collection of vases and containers to hold the candies. Provide favor boxes, favor bags  and favor envelopes to hold guests’ candies. Then accent! Use ribbonpersonalized tags and little signs to let guests know which treat is which.

 

Have fun ­— and enjoy!

You’ll
have a great time setting up your candy bar! All you need to do is…


ask your reception site to provide a round, square or rectangular table large
enough to hold all your treats


rent or purchase a tablecloth that coordinates with your wedding but also makes
the candy bar stand out, like a cloth with a little sparkle or a pretty floral
or subtle stripe pattern


shop for chocolates, candies, mints, lollipops, gumdrops, jawbreakers, gumballs
and other sweet favor fillers in your wedding colors (be sure to sample each treat…you know…to make sure
they’re delicious!)


collect a variety of vases, containers and tiered stands to hold all your candy


also collect pretty scoops guests can use to help themselves to the candy (tie ribbon to the handles for a
special coordinating touch!)


order personalized favor boxes, treat bags and favor envelopes for guests to use to hold their treats


ask your venue staff or a good friend to set up the candy bar so it’s ready for
your guests when they arrive at the reception

Get
ready for lots of “ooh-ing” and “aah-ing” and lots of fun memories!

Enjoy!
