There a a lot of things I LOVE about this table decor set up by Cicely at Life Design Event Planning but I specifically wanted to point out the centerpiece. We get a lot of hits from brides looking for candy buffet ideas and this version is fantastic. First of all – the candy display makes a fantastic, unique centerpiece and if you’re going to do a candy buffet, why not work it into the table decor and eliminate the cost of centerpeices? It’s also completely customizable – just pick candies to match your color scheme!

Visit the Life Design Event Planning blog for more pictures of this fantastic spring table design! Can I just drop this in here: the print table cloth? LOVE IT!

I got a great question from a reader this week:

My future daughter-in-law and I are planning the candy buffet for her September 19, 2009 wedding. We have seen pics online of candy dishes that were fairly large that spell out the word L O V E. Each dish was separate and I believe was made of ceramic. It really set off the mood of the wedding having LOVE candy dishes filled with brown, orange and yellow M&Ms. Any idea where we could find these dishes? Thanks so much and God Bless! Cindia

So I did some research and found a a great source on eBay that offers them for $30 per set! Great idea Cindia!

I write about candy buffets a lot, and you guys seem to eat it up so I know you’ll love these personalized mini glass candy jars as much as I do! They are absolutely chic, and would suit a retro wedding perfectly. You could also add tags with your guests names on them and use them as place cards, or pile them together on a table for a stunning display in place of a traditional candy buffet.
