    hi everyone, might be a silly question but what sweets are you all having in your candy cart, im stuck for ideas, i don't want anything too sticky as it might ruin the look of the vases and leave streaks and i don't really want anything with wrappers as kids may make a mess. So far all i can think of are f1y1ng s@uc3rs. Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Different coloured bonbons (perhaps your wedding colours?) Chocnibs, lollipops, foam bananas and shrimps.

    my wedding colour is green, struggling to find a large variety of green sweets but it's a fantastic idea! the foamy sweets are a great idea too, never even thought of them, i love the look of the lollipop trees, may make a couple of those x

    They do green apple bonbons. Apple kubes (kind of like cola kubes) Those apple sour belts.

    These may be apple themed green sweets. hehe x

    We are not having one, as we will only have one child (aged 8 when we get married) at our wedding.
    I guess though that the other 119 big kids - sorry I mean adults mike like it.

    We went to a wedding 2 years ago where there was a sweet cart, and it turned into a free for all sweet fight - okay we were in a marquee in a field with 250 wedding guests of which 200 or so were bikers - but even the non bikers joined in the fun along with the bride and groom.

    I'm just worried that if we had one at our wedding, it could turn into the same thing, and I'm not sure the hotel would appreciate it. So I guess its best that we don't bother with one. Instead I shall do a pic and mix for my young guest.

    Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

    aaah well i hope mine doesn't end up like that with all the effort i'm having to put in! :') and Danielle I'm not certain i would have bothered either but if we wanted any sort of sweets on the buffet it was an extra £2.50 per person which doesn't sound bad but we have 150 evening guests so that brings it to an additional £375.00 and for the price I'd be miffed if they just slapped on a cheesecake ahaha so figured I would sort it myself for cheaper x

    I would say sweet cart as a child fountain looks good but is always disappointing :-) xx

    A child fountain? Lol!
    Yeah I know what you mean, you can never get enough haha. I'm just more into chocolate than sweets. Will have to have loads of little choccies and maybe cookies on the sweet cart :)
