I’m obsessed with candles, they are my favourite decor! They bring so much to the room; height, colour, light, mood.
They do however, have their downfalls. It’s important you know a few things about them.
If you are buying non-drip, usually cheaper candles, they have a lot of potential to ruin the linen underneath them. This can result in a bill from your stylist for the cost of new linen as candle wax is near on impossible to remove from materials.
Many venues don’t allow a naked flame which lots of couples are unaware of. It’s worth checking with your venue if you are able to have candles through your styling. If you’re not, check if we are able to use floating candles or glass covers. If not, we can look at LED candles as an option.
Candles can fill up lots of space while still creating a beautiful, ambient setting. They can also be a more affordable option although shouldn’t be mistaken for a cheap option. When using a stylist, we will source good quality candles in the correct shades and also deal with the candle wax mess the following day.
I hope this was helpful!
I’m ready to talk candles and other styling with you soon. Drop me an email!
