What do you lady's think about doing a candy jar with jujubes in them. They are the bright colors of my wedding so they would look cute! I don't know, justy can't spend too much! HELP!!!!
I'm totally for edible favors. They will go with the summery feel of your wedding too

I think it's a great favor. I had this in mind at one point. I thought it would be cute to say something like 'A Sweet Beginning' with the wedding date on it and have the candy inside.

do you have one of the jars already? i would fill one and see how many candies it takes. I would buy a normal size box like the size you get at the movies first and see how many jars you can fill up with one box. I just looked up online in the typical box of jujubes from the movie theater there is 6.5 ounces of candies so if it takes an entire box of (the movie theater size) candy to fill 1 jar and there are 80 ounces per bag (16 ounces = 1 pound and its a 5 pound bag) then you can fill just over 12 jars with each 5lb bag. Does that help i think i may have confused myself lol
1 jar for a dollar but they were atleast 6 inches high and pretty wide

WOAH!!! Thanks for the math lesson! That is a lot of candy then!! Hmmm, I hope they take less than a box!!! This is going to get expensive very fast!!!
