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.

Emily & Aaron’s monochromatic DIYed wedding

The bride lives in black, so her dress totally had to incorporate the color. Add in her blue hair (her “something blue”), gorgeous black and white veil, their classic ride, and a tear-y groom, and you’ve got this gorgeous Aussie wedding with DIY details. Just wait until you see the groom at the beginning of the ceremony. Oh, and wait until you see how a five-year engagement helped them overcome a challenge.

Ferne & Ben’s geeky science fiction wedding

The Day of the Doctor is coming in honor of Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary. What better way to relish one of our fave fandoms than to have a Doctor Who theme week? Today we’ve got a vintage dress, a huge homemade Dalek (and mini flower girl Dalek!), and a wedding guide made for us to “not panic!” It’s a sci-fi wedding… so say us all!

Toni & Nam’s offbeat lite garden wedding with monsters and games

We know that our brides run the gamut on how much they want to be involved in the wedding planning. This bride took it one step further and let her mom plan 99% of it! And their personalities totally shined through in their gamer geek music choices, colorful monster details (including Frankenstein shoes!), and choices in board games for the reception.

Candy, skulls, and horror movie props: Sounds like it’s Halloween on Offbeat Bride

One of my favorite things about Halloween is the candy; you can just imagine how excited I got over Offbeat Bride Leslie’s Halloween lollipop bouquet. The bouquet was made from lollipops bought at Candy Warehouse, the sticks are covered in pretty printed tapes. There’s more wedding candy, and dark Halloween-themed fun where that came from in this special Halloween week reader round-up!
