Your special day is all about celebrating the sweetness of love and what better way to make your shower a little bit sweeter than with wedding candy? Wedding-themed candies can be a delicious way to add some color to your shower tables. Plus, they make for a sweet treat for your guests.
Here are a few ways you can use wedding candy in your shower centerpieces:
Colorful Candy Jars: There’s something about glass canisters filled to the brim with candies that makes you feel like a kid again. Choose wedding candy to match your wedding colors and then fill several glass jars with them to place in the center of your tables. Choose jars of varying heights and sizes for a whimsical touch.
Candy Bouquets: If you’re feeling crafty, turn wedding candy into a bouquet by using non-toxic adhesive to fasten candies by the wrapper onto wooden dowels in fun flower shapes! Or, if you want something that’s even more edible, unwrap the candies and use a cake maker’s adhesive, which is completely edible. There are tons of tutorials out there to help you make a wedding candy bouquet using tissue paper, a mix of fresh or artificial flowers, or other ingredients! Place your bouquet into a vase and enjoy.
Lollipop Trees: Decorate a clay flower pot and use floral foam to create a base for your lollipop tree. Then, use a wooden dowel or decorative rod to make for the “trunk”. At the top of the dowell, place a round, foam flower ball. Stick individual lollipops into the flower ball - you can make patterns, alternate colors, add bows or rhinestones, and so much more!
After the shower ends, encourage your guests to fill up their goodie bags with the decorations as a sweet favor!
