The Best Candy Vendors

Give guests a candy treat at your wedding reception.

By Tara Mandy and Meredith Levy

Guests love candy. Hard candies. Toffees. Chocolates. Mallows. You name it. You can load up a table with apothecary-style glass jars and silver candy scoopers and call it a Candy Buffet. Or order Jordan almonds in your wedding colors and wrap them beautifully as table favors. Or fill the welcome bags with nostalgic brands like Smarties and candy cigarettes.

There are a gazillion ways to add a touch of whimsy with sweets. On the luxury end, Miette creates gorgeous displays and favors while Papa Bubble hand-makes beautiful hard candies that you can order in custom shapes and colors (to match your décor). You can commission One Girl Cookies to create a cookie buffet, Vosges to set up an exotic truffle buffet, or Simply Candy Buffets to create something very Willy Wonka-ish. For the DIYers, it's best to order in bulk from sites like Candy Warehouse and Bulk Foods.

Top it all off with custom cocktails served in edible candy glasses from Bar Candy.
