kiiradee, 28 August, 2011 at 10:16 Posted on Planning 0 7

Getting married in 9 and half weeks :o.. just decided to do my own sweet table as we were quoted too high and i reckon with a bit of creativty i could create a nice one..afterall im not the conventional bride so im off to ikea today to look at vases , jars and plates to see what i can get hold off (color scheme black white and red).

What sweets are your/peoples favs for this kind of thing? I dont really care for color scheme match i like funky retro sweets so far i havean idea of what i want to buy am i missing a key sweet/s?

Wine gums (my fav)

Panda natural Liqourice

colorful rock and rock swirl giant lollys.

black jacks and fruit salad

Flumps

smarties

malteasers

choc raisons

Jazzies (mixed)

refreshers

drumstick lollies

flying saucers

Vimto bomboms

candy straws

Also going to have fresh strawberrys as i dont really eat sweets (lost 17 stone and trying hard to resist all this weding temptation stuff ).

Thankyou everyone.

    Wow, well done on the weightloss - makes my 6 stone target look pants! lol

    I like your choice of sweets, ours will be very similar I think. We are doing it ourselves too - Jars etc from Ikea and Ebay, and sweets from the cash and carry :-)

    Wow your weight loss story never stops amazing me!

    We also had some little candy watches and those Trolli burgers (me and OH were 90s kids and had those on the way home from school!

    Jelly beans look great too, and we had little boxes of candyfloss to go out on the table. I also put on after eights which were gone before I even got to the venue!!

    Oh and about the weightloss sorry i didnt see that.. i just cut down and watched fat , i eat things under 5g of fat per 100g of product and stick to only foods i know contain no oils and added fats (natural fats are fine like nuts and seeds) it sounds complicated but its my way of life now.

    i am 6 and half weeks after my tummytuck and i swelled right up to size 12-14 after surgery but now back in tens i cant wait for swelling to go down completly though.
