Candy Buffet Supplies - where to buy?

For those of you who did or are doing candy buffets, where is the best place to buy things like the scoops and candy?  I don't want to spend a fortune, but also want it to look neat - preferrably with our wedding colors...

Also, just curious, do you set it up yourself or just give someone at your venue the details and all of your stuff and they set it up??  Just curious how it works.  TIA!!  :)

    Ooh I never would have thought to look there.  I wonder if they are reasonably priced.  I saw some scoops online that are like $20 a PIECE so when you need several it gets expensive!!   I will check it out tho!  Thanks!

    In my bio is a link to a place that rents the whole set up (picture is in my bio too, not on the website though) - pretty inexpensive! 

    (in my bio it's under "It's all in the details")

    Stupid question, but how do you look at someone's bio? Help!

    I bought metal scoops at Walmart.
    My whole candy buffet setup is for sale.

    I bought mine from a past knottie and plan on selling it after our wedding. Check out the "For Sale" sticky at the top of the boards. Our DOC is setting ours up, but you could talk to your venue and see if that's something they'd be willing to do

    I'm selling my candy buffet set up for $75 - 14 containers (I think) and 18 or so scoops.
