Answer 1

my niece did a "family" table. There were "auntie nancy's snickerdoodles"  "Grandmas macaroons"  "Dad's trail mix" you get the idea. Ask family to make their "famous" goodies and label them accordingly. It was a huge hit!

Answer 2

candy canolies a big cake or go to a candy store and put white mints  or something that that you want

Answer 3

Dried tropical fruit ....  chunks of FRESH coconut ...  Macadamia nuts (instead of the usual cocktail nuts)  ... Jordan almonds ... jelly bellies in the colors of your wedding ...... Pretzel rods rolled in melted chocolate coating (colors available at Michael's) and then rolled in nuts or sprinkles (these stand up in a glass well) .....fruit kebobs stuck into whole fresh pineapples

Answer 5

My cousins wedding had a candy table. An entire table with tons of different candies, penny candies and chocolates. Try researching some recipes for canapes. They are pretty much toasted breads, crackers, vegetable or fruit bases with a sort of like cream cheese  (or cheese) mixture on it and a little bit of meant, nuts, vegetables, herbs, chunks of cheese.

You can have many different varieties and flavorings (meat, fruit, veggie, sweet, salty...etc.) that will please just about everyone.
