Candy Buffet

[KellyandMatt08]

For those of you that had or are having a candy buffet, where did you buy your candy? Did you purchase it in bulk online or did you buy it once you got to your location?

 

If we plan on doing this I'm not sure if we should just do one color or just a mix of everything. Just looking for ideas.

 

Thanks!!

I know there are pictures too.

When ours was a DW the plan was to buy the stuff before and travel with it otherwise you risk not being able to find what you want. On the flip side you have to worry about melting. LALA should be posting photos of hers very soon!

We got our candy in bulk before we got there - some online and some at costco. We took it down during our site visit in August and left it there until last week. It was fine - not stale or anything. The wedding coordinators just lined baskets with white napkins and put the candy in there with a big spoon. We only had red and blue candy. I'll post a pic as soon as I can find one!

I can't find a pic yet! Ugh!

Everyone loved it and made a bag of candy. I saw people eating it by the pool the day after. DH and I took a bag with us to Todos Santos too! There were these blue candies that turned your mouth blue. There are (somewhere) some funny pics of DH's grandma with her tongue out and it's all blue!!! So funny!
