  • A sweet table hadn't actually appealed to me, but the more I think about it, the more I like the idea. We aren't having a large wedding, and not many kids, but might do this anyway x

  • LOL, I don't care about the guests... I'm doing a sweetie table JUST FOR ME mwa ha ha. Obviously I will share with all of them too. Not sure how much to do per guest though.

  • I'm having 100 in the evening in total, it will only come out at the evening reception.

    I got some tall vases from Quality Save or Home Bargains (same shop really) they are 50cm tall, in them I'm having, ferrero roche, jelly beans, jelly babies, mini eggs, lindt bears & balls.

    I got some kiln jars from Ikea they are going to have all the other jellied sweets in. Also having sweetie trees.
