To Order
-
All you need to do is:
-
Let me know how many candles you want. Each pack holds 6 candles and is priced at £15.00. A discounts available for bulk orders - 10 boxes plus and 20 boxes plus
-
The colours that you want. If buying multiple colours, let me know the amount of each colour that you require. Like the china order, you can increase or decrease up to two weeks before your wedding. I cannot cancel or add after this date.
-
The order will then be added to your final invoice and inventory. The candles can be delivered separately or part of your china inventory when I set-up. If you have a separate stylist, I will arrange for collection for you.
NB: Check with your venue to see if they allow live flames before ordering.

How to Use
Please make sure your venue/stylist is(are) aware of the following. This will provide safety and the best use of the candles
.
-
Trim the Wick: Before lighting, trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch to prevent excessive smoking and ensure a steady flame.
-
Spacing: Place candles at least 10 cm apart to allow for optimal airflow and prevent uneven burning.
-
Avoid Drafts and Heat Sources: Keep candles away from draughts and direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause uneven burning and dripping.
-
Sunlight Sensitivity: Avoid placing candles in direct sunlight. Sunlight exposure can soften the wax, causing candles to bend or lean over time.
-
Never leave a burning candle unattended.
NB: I don't currently provide candleholders.
