Candy and dessert tables are here to stay. Everyone loves the nostalgic feeling that sweets give you. They are also great for getting your guests moving and interacting.
With that being said, the million dollar question for all brides and party hosts when they decide they want to incorporate a candy table is "how much candy to buy?"
My first suggestion is to figure out the number of guests and how many different types of candy you want to display. Candy comes in different shapes, sizes and weight, so you want to make sure that you're not going over board. Project Wedding suggests purchasing 1/2 cup (4 oz) of candy per person, which I think is a great gauge. Another website, Big Wedding Tiny Budget, suggests 1/4 lb (4 oz) or 1/2 lb (8 oz). My vote is for the 4 oz because your guests will have already eaten plenty during the cocktail hour and dinner, along with the wedding cake.
