I love this trend. And why wouldn’t I? Candy bars are both sweet and chic, fun and functional! They offer an easy, affordable opportunity to incorporate your wedding colors into the reception in a delightful way, and with M&M’s new campaign that allows you to customize your candies with photos and messages, you can add even more sugary fun to the mix! Plus, candy bars are a more family friendly option for the ceremony than wine bars, letting everyone from the flower girl to Grandma enjoy the treats you’ve laid out.

But, when I brought the idea up to my family, they argued that it seemed a little childish. I think their exact words were, “Who are you marrying? Willy Wonka?”

What do you think? Are candy bars playful and posh, or do they leave a bad taste in your mouth?

How incredibly fun are these wedding Pez dispensers covered with Swarovski crystals? InStyle Weddings has compiled an amazing slideshow of “Fabulous Favors,” including personalized gifts, donations to charity and these fantastic little bride and groom Pez dispensers from Dylan’s Candy Bar. Even if you don’t want to fork over $300 per favor, there are some other great ideas for any couple looking to add some sparkle to their ceremony.

InStyle also announced that Amy Adams, the adorable star of Enchanted and one of my favorite actresses, is engaged to actor Darren Legallo. Congrats, Amy!
