EVENT / WEDDING IDEA: POPCORN BAR!
It’s our opinion that popcorn should be invited to every wedding or event – it’s the perfect snack or party favor. Here are some answers to questions that will hopefully help make your popcorn bar a success. Maybe some other fun ideas will pop into your head, too.
HOW MUCH POPCORN WILL I NEED?
We understand that weddings & events come in all sizes, so here’s a quick look at how much popcorn comes in every bag at Vic’s, as well as how many people that will serve.
Keep in mind that, though some people will not eat any popcorn, some will eat extra. And they will most likely continue to munch throughout the event. We recommend you estimate enough popcorn for everyone - roughly two to four cups per guest. And if you have some left over at the end of the night, all the better – Vic’s popcorn is just as good the next day as it is on the wedding or event day.
WHEN SHOULD I ORDER?
To ensure you have your popcorn on the day of, we suggest placing your order no later than two weeks before your event.
That being said, we know how satisfying it can be to cross off something on your to-do list, so you can always place your order in advance. Just let us know in the customer comment section at checkout that this is for a wedding or event, and let us know the date you would like to receive it. We suggest you have the popcorn delivered two to three days before the event. That way you can relax knowing it has arrived, and the popcorn will stay very fresh in that amount of time.
HOW LONG WILL MY POPCORN STAY FRESH?
Here’s the big question, of course: how long will the popcorn stay fresh? To give you a bigger picture, any of our gourmet white popcorn will stay fresh for 10 to 12 days, and the flavored or sugarcoated popcorn will be good up to four weeks later. Just be sure and keep it stored in a closed container, at room temperature and out of the sun to contain freshness.
CAN I CUSTOMIZE TO MATCH MY WEDDING OR EVENT?
Of course! To start, you can order specific colors of popcorn. Though we can’t guarantee an absolute color match, we try very hard to get as close as possible.We can also print a monogram, picture, saying, etc. on either red, white or gold tins. This is a great way to display your popcorn on the wedding or event day, and it even makes for a nice keepsake! Just give us a call at 877-330-VICS or contact us today to talk through details and pricing.
Please note that we need a month's notice to create any customized popcorn or tins. And due to high volumes during the holidays, custom popcorn colors cannot be created during the month of December.
