How much would a candy bar at a wedding reception cost for 100 people?

Question

I want to do a candy bar at my reception instead of the regular favors. Has anyone ever done this at their wedding? How much candy did you use and how much did it cost?

Answer 1

are you talking about a personalized candy bar...like with you and your spouses name on it? which would be totally cute...but i can't even guesstimate want they would want for that....you could look online, and get a good price i'm sure...but then your chancing on whether it would taste good...i would call your local bakery (that caters to weddings) and get their opinion on such a thing. a 100 people isn't too many.

cute idea.

if your meaning a candy 'bar' like the above poster...i've never seen it done...but that is a totally cute idea too. sounds do-able. go to a bulk food store they always have a lot of candy and get little shovels...how adorable. kind off kilter, but who wants to be on kilter...

Answer 5

I would say the cheapest route would be to go to a whole sale store like Bj's or Sam's. If you buy them in bulk I am sure it will save you money.

I did the mini hershey's because they're cuter and cheaper.  For 100 minis, it's $75.00.  I also ordered personalized napkins from this site.

You can also get order the wrappers and do it yourself.
