I saw one in an episode of Bridezillas.. The bride was ... she was running two hours late and was mad that the guests ate the candy while they were waiting for her.

I think its a cute idea!..Good luck with it if you decide to do it

my friends did it recently..they had different desserts in big jars at each table as centerpieces..including m&ms with their faces on..and hershey kisses with some sticker with the date on the bottom. and then we all got treat bags to fill and take home as a favor (but most of us were too stuffed with sugary things by then haha)

i think there are some pics on my facebook page somewhere..it was a cute idea and i know they saved $$ by doing it also

I think they're fun! I know a few ladies on here have done them (or are considering them) but I can't remember their names.

The centerpieces also sound fun. It's decorations, centerpieces, favors, and desserts. Talk about saving money.

I almost want to do one. Too bad we're done planning.

I did that!! Our wedding was ALL black and white with a TINY bit of red (for the flowers) so the entire candy bar was white and black candies... m&ms, snow caps, hersey kisses, etc... we had shovels in all of the vaces and cute little bags w/ "love sayings" on them

i loveeeee the black and white idea with red. it sounds so classic and elegant

here are some pics from my friend's...it was kinda sorta this weird type of icebreaker, walking around to different tables to be like "sooo what desserts do you guys have?" haha.

No flipping way Krista, I was just...like 3 hours ago, googling wedding themes and I SWEAR I was thinking green and yellow!!! How WEIRD!?!?

ETA: I like the ice-breaker idea but wow...those colors do not go together the way I was thinking

I didn't do them as a centepiece though... I guess the "icebreaker idea" is kinda cute but we had a table set aside w/ a ton of vaces set up w/ shovels and all... It was totally seperate from everything. Funny enough there were people around that table ALL Night!

That's more how I envisioned doing it too...

but...maybe for centerpieces I could to cupcake trees on each table...

I don't like cake and no offense to other ladies but I just can not stand wedding cakes...not my style. I'm digging this cupcake tree centerpiece idea

haha, weird. and oh i agree. the bridesmaids dresses were a really pale yellow. it was definitely a yummy reception though. they kind of did a mario theme also, you can kinda see some of the mario things in the center..and they had a mario cake. (i don't remember why.)

maybe different shades? i don't know
