Has anyone done/Is anyone doing a candy buffet for their wedding? I'm tossing the idea around about doing this at my wedding, but I don't know if it's going to put me in the poor house. LOLIf anyone has done this or knows around how much it costs, please FM me!!

I plan on having one! I bought all the vases and jars I'll need off another LIW bride and I plan on getting the candy around halloween at costco or at post-halloween sales. Shouldn't be too expensive, and I think it'll really stand out to the guests too since I've never been to a wedding that had one.I'll definitely be looking to sell the vases again, keep your eyes peeled for my post LOL!

If I don't get crazy and buy them soon (aka, find them super cheap), consider yours bought already!!

I most likely will be doing one. Buying my own candy & jars. Check with your venue though because when I was looking for venues, the ones in suffolk county would not allow me to bring in my own candy/jars. It had something to do with the food/health codes.

not sure how much it costs but like the girls said you can buy the candy on sale or Costco. The glass containers you can find at Home Goods and Marshalls

I'm doing it! I scavenged all of my families homes to see what jars and vases they had ( thankfully my aunt is a hoarder and had ton)There are a bunch of wholesale websites to order candy In bulk and you can pick it by color

Most halls will not let you do this on your own because of health code violations. My hall would not so I hired my friend to do it who has a candy buffet business with insurance paperwork so now my hall allows it. Please ask them first. Epecially unwrapped candies...most of them will say no. Even your florist needs to be insured so just call you venue first.Welcome New Vendors
