I want candy.

I have more than a little bit of a sweet tooth. My FH has even more of a sweet tooth. So, when deciding on what to give our guests as favours, the answer was simple, something sweet and edible.

We thought about chocolate covered pretzels (but my FH's brother did that as his December wedding), we thought about personalized M&M's (but what about people that don't like chocolate), we considered caramel apples (though this would be very time intensive as we'd likely do them ourselves) and then we went to meet Kim, our wedding coordinator.

She suggested a candy buffet. Um, yes!

I had seen tons of pictures of wedding candy buffets, but thought they were out of our budget. But since our decorator/WC already has all the jars/plates to display the candy, it actually won't be too costly. Plus, since she'll be helping us the day of the wedding, she can refill the jars as the guests deplete them.

Now the only question is, what should I do for candy colours.

We could just do a mix of colour, focusing on the more halloween-y colours, like orange, green, purple, and black. I think a variety of colours can look great.

We can stick to our black and white theme and do something like this. Or, we could do this and add in our orange accent colour.



Or we could go for a primarily orange display, and let the candy buffet be the main orange element of the reception hall.


So what do you think? Black and white? Black and white and orange? Black, orange, purple and green?
