I am getting married in the fall of 2023 and instead of using sparklers for a send off I have somehow convinced my fiancé to use flashlights because I think it would be funny. Now here comes the fun part…… picking out lights. Im sure I can go to vista print or something like that and get 100+ flashlights for not that much…….but I can only imagine how bad they would be. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for buying flashlights in bulk (probably 120-150) or know of any “better” lights that may work for this idea or more reputable flashlight sellers that have better bulk pricing.
Well the venue wont allow us to have sparklers so she said we could do flashlights and is completely on board with it. So maybe me saying “I convinced her” is a stretch
Plus batteries and then they have to charge them all, and print and include info on lithium battery safety.
How bright do they need to be? I’m guessing you’ll want to go for AA batteries otherwise the price will skyrocket if you have to supply every light with a lithium battery too. Using AA’s will make it harder to find something.
I have placed an order for four of this key chain light on Ali Express.
For a lower price when you buy in bulk, go to Alibaba.com and take a look. You will find key-chain multi-function flashlights of various brands, each costing only about US$5 (on Banggood, it is being sold for over US$10!).
It can do many things, including blinking red and blue, which I believe will be wonderful when you have more than 100 of them doing the blinking at your wedding.
One possible drawback is to fully charge each of them before distribution. But I believe everyone (built-in battery) is partially charged and is quite capable of doing the flashing for several minutes.
why don’t you go for something like this, then your guests could all hold them up to make an archway for you to walk through - it’s cheap and they can be taken home for kids to play with
or, these foam ones so when everyone is drunk they can fight with them (my choice lol)
I am not sure you will get the same effect as a sparkler using an ordinary flashlight. Unless you have some sort of a diffuser. Like the ones cops use for directing traffic.
This is the important question. Set a budget first, and the community will find the best alternatives in that budget.
Also, which is your idea? Are you going to send them as invitations, give them at the begining of the ceremony for people to shine the sky/ceiling, or give them when people are going away?
1 mode
Twist ON > Twist OFF
Under the black cover on the tail it has a USB A port to plug into a charger, computer…
Very cool white LED
Bright enought to make the party but not enough to blind someone
Has lots of different colours to chose from
I'd look for bulk prices on the old $2 zoomies .
They are AA and simple easy to mod if you end up with a bunch afterwards.
People love them
They come in black or silver /one mode or high low strobe .
probably close to a buck a piece wholesale .
AA's are easy to source and easy for noobs to understand .
(my choice lol)
