‘Tis the season for wedding festivities. If you are hosting a bridal shower or a bachelorette party and looking for some decorating ideas, here’s a simple, festive and inexpensive idea for you. Mini wedding cake candles look great when displayed in numbers. Use a rectangular glass block or candle holder, line up the candles and you have yourself a very simple centerpiece. The mini cake candles would also look great displayed on a glass cake stand in a large group for a similar effect.
Many of the mini wedding cake candles out there are pretty tacky. I found a few that are simple and look nicer than most on the market.
Small Pearl Wedding Cake Candle – available at Candles.com for $5.99 each

*A little more expensive than the average mini wedding cake candle but, unlike most of the others I found, they are very simple. They are also available in a larger size, so you can vary your display with large and small candles.
Elegant Lace Wedding Cake Candle – available at icestandar.org for $1.84 each

*This one even comes with its’ own mini cake stand you can use as a candle holder, but it does have the extra pastic packaging, which isn’t very eco-friendly. Try asking for it without the plastic box if you are using them decoratively and not giving them as a favor.
Those mini wedding cakes are really cool looking and not a bad price either. If you need other wedding decorations you should check out http://www.uscandleco.com . They have unity candles plus a ton of unscented colored candles. Of course they have all kinds of scented candles too.
Very nice and relatively inexpensive. What a marvelous idea. You do have good taste.
you can also buy candles just like this at the dollar store
you may even be able to find the glass blocks there but not to sure.
Love the pictured small pearl candles and the the multi-candle holder. Cannot get info on them on the website provided. Help!
The pearl-studded candles are no longer available so I referenced similar candles that you can use as a substitute. The candle holder is a basic, long tealight/ votive holder. Here is one that is similar to the one shown.
