Candle Wedding Favors

 What is a wedding without candles? How much more true that sentiment is when it comes to the wedding reception tables, where they can be used as wedding favors.

Light is elemental. It literally lights our way. But it is so much more. A candle is a practical device and has been for centuries. Yet, even in this modern age when electricity is completely taken for granted, we continue to use them by the billions. Why? Because they're not just practical but decorative, lovely, and symbolic.

A candle is a symbol of romanticism, hope, and purity. In the clean burning center we see a representation of the hopes that every marriage starts with. They're also an elegant decoration. Its gentle flame draws the eye effortlessly. And they're simply lovely, offering a delicate swatch of color with a tiny wisp of swirling smoke above.

Fortunately for those looking for wedding favors, there are dozens of designs that incorporate all those elements.

Picture a frosted glass votive wrapped with an elegant silk tassel. Tying the knot comes immediately to mind, presented in the most stylish fashion possible. The gentle glow provides just the right look to the table. The guests enjoy the lovely scent while they share your joy.

Candle wedding favors can also offer a bit of fun. Your Prince Charming may have begun as a frog and evolved to the man of your dreams. Your tea light wedding favors can reflect that in the shape of a frog candle topped by his little gold crown. Set inside a wedding favor box decorated to look like a small castle tower, it makes for an excellent gift for the guests.

Miniature mugs make for ideal candle holders. Smooth ivory-colored ceramic has an elegance and warmth all its own. Add a candle and it becomes a center of gentle illumination for the table. Fit them inside a box with a pink ribbon and they'll be used in the guests' homes long after that special day.

Candles and cakes are natural partners. Why not combine them and get a set of miniature porcelain cake candles? Decorated in lively colors, these tiny objects lend a touch of beauty while they deliver a load of fun. Enclosed in a box topped with a satin bow, they're the perfect wedding favor.

Butterfly tea lights make for another great option. Providing hints of a serene summer garden they fit well with a garden theme or a fairy tale setting or one that honors Spring. But independently of any theme, they're simply lovely. In frosted glass style, the wings glow with a hopeful light. In solid colors, they provide a beautiful pastel accent.

Add a scent of coffee to the table by choosing the Caffe Espresso tea light. Get the delicate scent of orchids by going with the Orchid Gel candle set. Enjoy the fragrance of the East with the Chinese Tapestry votive. So many aromas, so few tables!

Pick a set of candle favors for your wedding reception tables and illuminate your delight.
