Popcorn Bar

Lately it seems as if popcorn is not only for throwing at weddings. Popcorn is inexpensive and is loved by almost everyone so what is more perfect to serve at your wedding as either a canape or a late night snack. You can either set up an entire popcorn stand or give it out as guest favours and you can include it in your wedding no matter what theme you have.

Love is Sweet

I recently wrote about the ever so popular Candy Bar Stations and another trend that we are seeing more often at weddings is the "Love is Sweet" sign. It is perfect for your candy station, your dessert table or even just next to your wedding cake. This is another small touch to add to your wedding that is inexpensive and can become the perfect project for DIY brides.

Candy Bar Stations

A few weeks ago I wrote about serving milk and cookies to your guests (which you can see here) and another extremely popular trend that has started is the candy bar station. This is inexpensive and incredibly easy to set up. You can match it to any theme and colour palette and if you have children attending your wedding I am sure they will love it.
