in Weddings & anniversaries
Hoping you can all inspire me here...........we're having a sweet table at the reception, for the kids really but I wanted to have a little card saying something ? but what?

all I can find on the net is ''grab a bag, fill it up, enjoy the sugar buzz, and remember love is sweet' but I'm not so keen on that one.

any suggestions would be grately appreciated ;)

    How about

    Here for you to enjoy,
    Sweets for every girl and boy,
    A table of fun,
    For everyone.

    Or

    For the young and the young at heart,
    A table of treats, a bundle of sweets,
    A jelly or two, for all of you.
    So fill up a bowl and enjoy

    Sorry, im a bit pants but those are my quick thoughts

    you could get all the sweets to be similar colours
    then say 'thanks for coming to our wedding heres some sweets with some red in'
    i can think of aniseed balls and perhaps sherbet pips to start you off
    my favourite food is spare ribs

    Thanks for coming on our special day
    We thought this might be our little way
    Of spreading sweetness and sugar too
    Here for all to enjoy and especially for you!

    Just a little play with words!

    Have a look on Project Wedding (its FAB!) - look in the photos, then search for Candy Table you might get some ideas from there too!
    Women marry men hoping they will change, men marry women hoping they won't! Inevitably they will both be disappointed.

    Not sure which makes me feel more nauseous - the idea of kids running around hyper on sugar or the shmaltzy poems you lot spout! _pale_
    I was born too late, into a world that doesn't care
    Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
