Yeah...i was thinking it would be a good idea. Do you know where I could find tea light candles at a decent price...my florist said they would charge $1.00 per candle. Do you think this is a good price??

Dollar stores. Walmart has bags of 25 or 50 for not too much either...

i wouldn't get them from Dollar Tree, they burn way to fast if they even burn. I use that for my oil burners BUT i found the ones with the plastic base as opposed to the metal base burn much better. I bought a bunch from AC Moore on clearance and Christmas Tree Shop always has them for real cheap.

I ordered the long burning votives off of some discount candle site, that worked well...

It comes with the glass holders and the candles burn for 10 hours so you don't have to worry about them running out before the party is over. I think they look nice.

Before shipping and handling and tax is included it comes to less than 60 cents a piece - which is actually then about 30 cents for the glass holder and 30 cents for the candles. You won't find cheaper.

Crate and Barrel...they have tea lights that are extended length that last over 5 hours. I used them for my E-Party and they were great!

candles4less.com. I got 72 votive candles with holders and they were less than $40 + shipping.

ETA: and i think they last up to 8 hours.
