Using all white looks really slick and what wedding doesn&#8217;t include white?<\/li>\n<li>Use unusual containers &#8211; here&#8217;s where you can call around to some of your older relatives with beautiful, large, maybe even antique glass candy containers.\u00a0 If you have fond memories of Aunt Mary&#8217;s green glass candy bowl, chances are a lot of your family members do too, and imagine how inviting it will look when filled with gorgeous candy!\u00a0 You can also get large clear containers pretty cheaply from hobby stores.<\/li>\n<li>Use a wide variety of candies &#8211; a minimum of 5 types, preferably 10 or even more. Choose variations in shapes or use all of one shape (round, for example) in various sizes.<\/li>\n<li>Get some matching fabric, some sturdy boxes to vary the display heights, and start practicing the set up on your kitchen table.\u00a0 You don&#8217;t want to figure out the setup on the day of the reception!\u00a0 There are lots of pictures online of candy buffets if you&#8217;re stumped about the sort of display that you want.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t forget the scoops!\u00a0 A 4 ounce size works really well, and if you shop around online, you should be able to get them inexpensively.\u00a0 Better yet, maybe you know someone who recently had a candy buffet at their event, and you can borrow theirs!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10023\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10023\" style=\"width: 570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10023\" alt=\"candy buffet\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23-500x667.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10023\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10023\" alt=\"candy buffet\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23.jpg\" width=\"570\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/5f2a9ec0b7a13cadb2f0d9f835c86c23-500x667.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> Source: http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/86131411596334739\/<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>You&#8217;re only limited by your imagination here.
