Candles are a timeless element of event decor, yet can easily become boring without an exciting spin. Give metallic candles that shimmer all around a new lease on life or add drama with large pillars and floating candles for maximum impact.
Set up an organized display for your items at market. Consider plastic tote bins to transport candles and supplies, or collapsible utility wagons as storage solutions.
Wax Candles
Candles add a warm and welcoming glow to any space, as well as providing a soothing sense of well-being or recalling memories from favorite places or times. There are various wax candle types and containers designed specifically to set a specific atmosphere or emotion.
Wax candles come in an assortment of colors and patterns to fit in perfectly with any decor. Candles make any event memorable – weddings, birthday parties and anniversaries alike can benefit from adding candles as decorations or even as gifts for friends and loved ones.
At the forefront of your decision when purchasing candles should be choosing your type of wax. Different waxes offer various advantages and drawbacks, such as color, texture, scent throw distance and level of difficulty to work with.
Soy wax and beeswax are two popular choices of wax for cosmetic applications, due to their non-sticky residue-free qualities and renewable resource benefits for local farms. Furthermore, soy wax works better with certain fragrance oils than other forms of waxes.
Beeswax is another natural material from an eco-friendly source: honey bees. Additionally, this form of wax requires no hardeners, additives or chemical processing in order to achieve high quality product results.
LED Candles
LED candles offer event organizers many advantages. Not only are they safe for both kids and pets, but their versatility exceeds traditional wax candidates; from flower arrangements to pillars and votive candles – LEDs make lighting designs easy! Plus they don’t produce open flames or hot wax production so can even be used at venues that prohibit flames.
Battery-operated candles feature an authentic look and feel, featuring subtle waxy texture and flickering illumination. Perfect for adding an atmospheric ambience on staircases and pathways for an eye-catching glow that won’t cause fire risk, these battery-powered candles provide a beautiful warm light that is sure to impress guests.
Dependent upon the size and style of LED candle you purchase, some options come equipped with a timer function that enables you to set how long they remain illuminated for. This feature can be useful in terms of meditation and relaxation as it gives you peace of mind knowing they will turn off automatically at their predetermined times, thus helping prevent you from forgetting manually to switch them off at certain intervals.
LED candles offer more convenience and less expense than wax options, making them an excellent option for event planners and decorators on a tight budget. You can purchase multiple candles in bulk to save even more. Just ensure you select an excellent product which will withstand time while providing realistic illumination to your clients.
Votive Candles
Votive candles add an intimate, sophisticated flair to any table setting, often placed between floral arrangements and glassware to illuminate without overshadowing them. Votives have also long been a fixture at churches as a symbolic reminder of when Mary and the Apostles experienced Pentecost and its tongues of flame descended onto Mary and the Apostles at Pentecost; as well as being important elements in many other religious ceremonies or celebrations as well as home decor options.
Add a candle holder to your votive candles for enhanced visual appeal, protection from heat damage and protection of surfaces from accidental spills or accidents. A tin candle container may also prove more durable than glass alternatives; these protective covers come in various forms like window, hinged and slipcover tins for your convenience.
At any corporate event, wedding reception, or dinner party at home, lit candles can completely change the atmosphere. Multiple candles at once create an elegant and romantic ambiance or can be clustered to highlight a focal point on the table. Candles make wonderful presents as housewarming gifts, hostess gifts or thank-you presents; many people even give candles as thank-you gifts!
Pillar Candles
Pillar candles add an air of luxury and elegance to any event, regardless of size, shape, or occasion. Available in an array of shapes and sizes, pillar candles make an excellent addition to centerpieces, mantels, outdoor decor or table settings. For an especially sophisticated touch, try opting for colored pillar candles in order to create a striking color scheme to go along with any theme or colors of interest.
When crafting pillar candles, it’s essential to use high-grade candlemaking wax. This will ensure your candles don’t develop dents easily and burn properly; additionally, using an excellent mold and strong wick is key in order to avoid tunneling – which leaves an unsightly hole at the center of your candle; to prevent tunneling you can use a wick bar which keeps your wick centered within its mold.
Custom candle packaging can help set your products apart from their competition, increasing brand recognition and strengthening customer relationships while simultaneously decreasing product waste. Custom solutions may include eco-friendly materials or customized label design to create distinctive pillar candle packages that set your business apart from its peers.
