More than 90 percent of all weddings have cake. It has become a ritual at every wedding regardless of culture or religion. Why not add sweetness to your big day with a candy station?
Project weddings states that “Candy bars, candy buffets & candy stations are the sweetest thing to happen to a bride since the cupcake. Brides from Newport Beach to New York City are requesting candy stations at their engagement parties, showers & wedding receptions because they are budget friendly, a popular treat, can blend with any decorator’s color scheme and are available in wide variety of flavor options. In addition, dessert bars in general are growing in popularity from cookies & milk to marshmallow buffets & late night snack bars.” The source for this quote comes from:
