I love food and by extension cooking shows. You know how a chef will make a deconstructed version of a meal with several different elements? Like if they’re making deconstructed chicken piccata, they might have rice in one dish, chicken in one area of the plate and a lemon caper sauce in another area. Can you see where I’m going with this? …No?…Of course you cant – let me explain.
Everyone’s doing these beautiful candy buffets. I don’t think we’re going to do one, but maybe we could do a deconstructed version of one.
What if we put a single container of candy at each table as part of the centerpiece? It would encourage guests to mix and mingle and the candy ends up serving double duty, both as decor and dessert.
Thoughts?

I’ve seen people custom order M&Ms in their wedding colors. That’s a cute idea…You’d have to stay sort of consistent though to give it a nice look. May be worth considering!

My friend uses M&M’s as her centerpieces. They were fun and a good conversation piece. I know candy everyone loves candy. Each table had a diff color M&M. It really worked well and probably didn’t cost much

I like the customized M&M’s idea. I also like Martha Stewart’s wedding, conversation hearts. Not sure if I’ll be able to work it into my candy buffet:(
