So this idea works for carnival weddings, that's a given. But really? ANY WEDDING can rock cotton candy. Your sweets table, candy bar, and dessert spread is instantly that much awesome-er with the addition of delicious, fluffy, happy-inducing candy floss. I mean, just look at the faces on these kids at Christina and Michael's carnival wedding (with Elvis officiant!). Those are some blissed-out sugar-fiends.

We're always in favor of a late-night dance party snack, too, and a cotton candy machine is such a good call. If you're hiring a caterer and are totally into this idea for your own wedding ( not required, of course, as with all our ideas!), see if they can snag a machine for your spread. Or if you have caterers/servers on hand (or a friendly and willing helper), you can rent your own for a pretty reasonable price. Google "cotton candy machine rentals" in your local area for lots of vendors.
