candy buffet

We love all sorts of wedding cake alternatives — wedding pie, donuts, and of course… WEDDING CANDY BUFFETS! This is our collection of posts just about wedding candy buffets — but we also have another archive dedicated to candy in non-buffet form.

Kisså & Todd’s morning garden party wedding

These two had awesome goals: stress-free day, guests enjoying their “quirky little world,” and be comfortable. They managed all of that while still creating a beautiful outdoor ceremony and cozy party with a bunch of touching moments and lots of blissed-out looks. It’s happy-sappy and I looove it.

Skulls and eyeballs and murder, oh my! It’s a Halloween Montage!

It’s Halloween today and we know what that means… fake eyeballs, hidden daggers, and CANDY from the Offbeat Flickr Pool! All of these and more can be found amidst the dark depths of this week’s Monday Montage.

Kelly & Justin’s DIY vintage Halloween two-day wedding

These two like photobooths — so much so that the groom proposed in one. So what better photobooth opportunity could there be than a costume party? The ceremony was the night before the reception so the couple could go FULL-ON costume for the party. And let me tell you, it was worth it. A ring warming, candy buffet, awesome costumes, and a hint of vintage give us a lot to love in the Halloween week entry.

Abby & Robb’s big family handfasting Halloween wedding

It takes a village to make a budget wedding and this couple had good friends to help. Handfasting, broom jumping, a last-minute Home Depot tie, and a little Doctor Who geekery make for a damn good time. Don’t forget to check out the bridesmaid’s different bouquets too! Just another awesome notch on the Halloween week checklist.

Kerri & Chris’ trick-or-treat Halloween military wedding

A Halloween theme, zombie-themed live band, and a saber arch in one wedding? Hell yes. This rockin’ party had these influences and more, including pumpkin carving, a candy buffet, and real live trick-or-treaters busting in. Even though the bride almost didn’t get her dress in time due to a volcano(!), they still managed to host a kick-ass party, giving us another great wedding for Halloween week.

Jamie & Nick’s self-catered Halloween theater wedding

Fog machines rock until they set the fire alarm off. Thankfully this pair had a great attitude and helpful friends to help them pull of their Halloween-themed DIY party despite that little setback. And you’ll love their paper burning ceremony to rid them of all their skeletons in the closet. Halloween week rocks!
