Make your wedding day sweeter

Flying saucers, chocolate mice, love hearts and fizzy snakes - no one can resist sweeties which makes them the perfect addition to any wedding when guests range from tiny tots to grandparents.

A white paper bag stuffed with memorable pick and mix favourites is the obvious choice for guest favours and are always a welcome treat as well as being very cost effective for brides on a budget. Why not personalise each one, for example, Buttermint Bon Bons for your grandma or Flying Saucers for your best friends to give them a trip down memory lane?

But there are so many other ways you can use sweeties to add a bit of fun to the day:

What about pick and mix instead of petit fours? Put small bowls of popular childhood sweets like jazzies, black jacks or super shrimps on each table with the coffee so guests can help themselves.

How about scattering a selection of sweets around the table like small packets of love hearts instead of table confetti? It provides a great talking point and acts as an ice-breaker for guests who may not know each other.

If you're inviting children to the wedding then a bumper bag of sweetie treats will guarantee their silence during the speeches.

Jars of retro sweets with a personalised label are ideal gifts for your Best Man or bridesmaids. Perhaps you had a favourite sweet as children that you always used to spend your pocket money on or sweets that your mum and dad never allowed you to have? Fill a jar with a selection of those and then create a label using a photograph of you as children.
