Niagara Wedding Planner- Theme and Decor: Fun and Fabulous Wedding Themes

If you are looking for a unique wedding idea to spruce up your wedding, take a look at some of these themes. These ideas get rid of the same old wedding feel by introducing activities and fun decor and liven up your day and ensure your guests are talking about your wedding for years.

1. Carnival Themed Wedding

This a super fun idea and great for couples who are all about having fun and don’t mind having a slightly more casual wedding.

Niagara Falls Wedding Coordination

To really pull this theme off you need to pay attention to all of the little details. Games, cotton candy, candy apples, and amazing props for photo time really pull this theme together.

2. Casino Themed Wedding

This is a great option for couples who want to introduce a little fun and lots of interest to their wedding while still keeping it classy and formal. A Casino Royale theme is a great option as it offers a black tie option.

This is another theme that does well with lots of attention to detail. Basically this is a posh cocktail party, and that is the feel you want your guests to have!

3. Chocolate Themed Wedding

This is meant for those couples who just can’t live without chocolate, the couples who have a die hard sweet tooth and want to celebrate their favourite indulgence.

Think about what you can have made in chocolate to add the extra touches to this theme. For example, place cards, centerpieces, straws, etc.

Niagara Wedding Planner- Vendor Love: Candy by Katie

Candy Buffet Niagara Falls

I met Katie at my WPIC training and let me tell you, she is really lovely! Katie specializes in anything sweet! From specialized candy buffet tables, to favours, or edible centerpieces, she is your girl! Katie does not just fill some bowls with candy, she creates a design, a piece of art work to wow your guests. I recently sat down with Katie to go over exactly what she does and how she does it.

What services do you offer?

If it involves sugar, we offer it! Our most popular services are candy
bars and dessert tables with a close second going to favours. Just
recently we started creating edible centrepieces as well!

What makes your service so unique?

We make everything custom to your event or tastebuds! Our passion is
creativity and we thrive on making each and every service more of an ‘art
installation’ at your event, giving people lots to look at and talk about!

Why should a bride and groom hire you rather then creating a candy buffet

by themselves?

IT’S NOT AS EASY AS IT LOOKS! The investment made for the jars, scoops,

bags and decor alone could put your budget way over let alone the retail
prices you’re going to pay at bulk food stores. Our price is an all
inclusive one and it means you get all of those things I mentioned above
plus we set everything up and tear everything down at the end of the
wedding. All you need to do is give us some inspiration to create and
we’ll do the rest!

What is your most favourite item that you offer?

Candy apples! The one part of the family business that really has made a
huge impact on Candy by Katie has been these little sweet delights. It’s
more of a sentimental reason…..my Dad actually makes them when we get an
order. It reminds me of when I was young and around him at some of the
festivals he worked and stores he owned.  He’s too scared I’m going to
burn myself so he makes them and I wrap them. The best father/daughter
moment I could ask for!
