Candle favours are a popular gift for both men and women as a thank you for attending your wedding. As well as looking attractive on the table, they are also a beautiful and practical gift that will be welcomed by your guests. They can be made even more practical by colour co-ordinating them with your table decorations, using the same fragrance as your wedding flowers and personalising them with your guest’s name so that they can then be used as a place marker for the seating arrangements. Or to really add your own personal touch, why not make your own by melting wax, adding your favourite colour and fragrance, then pouring into a jar or glass and decorating them with ribbons, flowers or other trimmings. As practical as they are though, they’ll be so beautiful that your guests won’t want to use them but will want to keep them as a special souvenir to remind them of your happy day.
There are many different kinds of candles you can give your guests. From ones with novelty value such as a candle in the shape of a Frog Prince, a piece of fruit or a vegetable to more elegant candles such as gel candles in champagne flutes or cocktail glasses or tea lights in teacups or lanterns. And along with the different kinds of candles, there is a price bracket to suit everyone too, from just £1 each. All types of candle are easily available in your local high street from the supermarket, department store or craft shop or online via the Internet.
