Wedding reception favors to put in tulle or organza favor bags.?
Question : Wedding reception favors to put in tulle or organza favor bags.?
We are eloping on a beach and having a reception (really more of a get together to have drinks and eat some awesome food) about a month afterwards. The favors are koozies–the collapsible ones not because they are cheaper but because they are more compact to store in the car. I need something to put inside of the koozies so they will stand up on the tables. I bought these tulle bags at Wal-mart and need some ideas on what to put in them. I thought of getting M&Ms from their Web site but they are $ 50 for a 5 lb bag for a specific color. I really don’t want coated almonds and personalized wrapped chocolate in quantities can be expensive. Do you think getting pastel M&Ms around Easter time (March 23) would be okay if the reception isn’t until the end of July (July 26) or is 4 months too long for candy to be sitting? Any other ideas? I am thinking, obviously, of something that is edible and I would be willing to spend a few hours making them to save money.
Our reception will be in a air-conditioned social hall in the Midwest, not on the beach.

I think you could freeze the candy and it would work fine.
If you freeze candy it will turn white. Why can’t you buy the candy closer to the reception date? Why not fill the koozies with chocolate covered pretzels, candles or potpourri?
