Whats the huge new trend in the choice of wedding favors for 2010? It's an interactive piece of art at your wedding, and is known as a "Candy Bar" or Candy Buffet" a wildly popular favor choice this year. A candy bar can actually be economical in terms of saving on wedding favors for your wedding. The average cost of a wedding favor is about 3% of your over all budget but anywhere between $5-$15 per guest or per couple. This can add up quickly is you are on a budget. Therefore not only is the candy bar a focal point at your wedding but it is extremely cost efficient. One can purchase take away bags/boxes/ or tins from as little as $0.25! And if you stick to candy that excludes chocolate and any other specialty (expensive) assortments you can create a candy bar for well under your initial budget.
Candy comes in all shapes and colors and can add that pop to your wedding decor, and keep your guests talking throughout the night about it. One thing to also consider when budgeting for a candy bar is the jars and glassware. These can get pricey fast! So your best option is to rent. Renting can range any where between $100-$300 for jars and decor. So keep this in mind when totaling your overall expenses for favors. Ideally you are looking at $350.00 for everything, for a medium sized wedding of approximately 100 guests. Which is only $3.50 per person! This is a great option if you are stumped for favor ideas, and want something a little less traditional. It is easy enough to do it yourself, but for a showstopping masterpiece its always good to go to the professionals for advice!
