Taffy
How much fun would it be to theme your wedding around taffy? You could create a beautiful vintage 1950s prom look. The best part about this idea is that it is affordable–you could even use a school gym! You can make it upscare by making sure to pay attention to elegance–high quality catering, white-gloved servers, and champagne. First, on the wedding invitations, ask everything wear a shade of pastel or white/khaki (for the men). Your bridesmaids could each wear a 50s vintage prom dress in a different shade of pastel (think lots of tulle and a tight bodice), with flowers in their hair. You could also use the braided rope effect in various ways, such as a chuppah, jewelry, or a rope for the aisle. For your reception, simple white tablecloths would be best, but accessorize them with puffy, pastel blooms like peonies or roses. Decorate the ceiling by floating hundreds of large pastel balloons–and, of course there is the dessert bar! A beautiful display of thousands of different flavored pieces of taffy would look marvelous, along with pretty colored boxes or containers for guests to take them home in. The cake should be buttercream, but colored, not white–and simple. It’s all about the sugar! Sugar-rimmed cocktail glasses, sugar-rubbed meat for the main course, and various flavors of sugar for the coffee. The result–an event everyone will be talking about!
