Weddingbee boards

INVEST IN THEM!!!! I recently posted on a thread explaining that we are using them for our wedding. I always, always, always keep them in stock at home and with our camping gear. They make perfect night lights in the tent or to line the hallway for out of town guests. *Giggle* Cheesy, I know!

Amnystik is right tho, purchase more than you expect to need because some may not work. (Try shaking them or adjusting the battery!) I usually go to Dollar Tree or Walgreens for them. Being that it is Halloween season you should be able to get a great deal on them once everything goes on clearance.

if you're looking for the larger sized candles, or even the tea light sized ones - i don't know about in the states but i know that costco in canada has them and for a really good price, including batteries!

The larger candles are even covered in a type of wax so that the outside looks and feels real!

I think they're a great idea...  I went to a wedding where the florist created these tall centerpiece trees that had glass votive cups hanging off them.  The venue required all flames to be fully enclosed in glass and sitting on a flat surface, so they used the little battery operated votives.  I that think up close, no they don't look just like real candles.  But when they're in an arrangement like that, they look great! They even make ones that flicker and twinkle.  I bought some that were 3/$1 at Dollar Tree, with batteries already in them.  That's cheaper than most real votives!
