Creating Unique Wedding Candle Favors
When your grandparents married, the idea of creating unique wedding candle favors as a project may have crossed the bride’s mind, but weddings were simpler, then. Wedding favors were often nothing more than sugar-coated almond candies. The candies were traditional, and many brides went with tradition.
Today’s bride has a wealth of ideas from which to choose – and yet, because the same ideas are so readily available via the Internet, many brides want something different. They want wedding favors that aren’t like everyone else’s. Some want to get together with friends and spend a day crafting wedding favors.
That’s where creating unique wedding candle favors as a project comes in. Picture yourself with your friends, tables piled high with lovely supplies. You load the CD player as everyone gathers around the table, and then settle down for an enjoyable day of chatting, listening to music, and creating your own unique wedding candle favors.
British Wedding Candle Favors
A nostalgic wedding candle favor with a “tea for two” theme can be created using “British” teacups with saucers. Search online for mini teacups and saucers. Several toy teacup and saucer sets are available. Choose antique white or flowered teacups with saucers. Place a tea candle in each cup, add a bow and card to the handle, and your wedding candle favor is ready. Centerpieces for your tables could be arranged in teapots.
Dutch Wedding Candle Favors
Something old … something blue. What better for unique wedding candle favors than Delft “Blue” with an “old” theme like a clog? An online search will turn up ceramic mini Dutch shoes with windmill or other design painted on them in Delft Blue. Purchase pairs to cut costs, and separate the shoes for your project.
Place a penny in the bottom of each shoe. Then insert a small, white tea candle. Use thin, sheer ribbon to tie on a printed tag with the traditional rhyme: “Something old, something new; Something borrowed, something blue; And a penny in her shoe.” Add a brief explanation: “The theme is old, the favor is new; I borrowed the rhyme, the shoe is blue. Look for a penny in the shoe.”
Eggs-actly Affordable Wedding Candle Favors
The bride who wants to inject humor can create unique wedding candle favors with ceramic egg cups. Oriental Trading Company online offers “paint-your-own” ceramic egg cups at $6.95 per dozen. The white egg cups can be painted to match your wedding color scheme, in flowers or other motif. Fill with wax and a wick, or insert a tea candle. (Oriental Trading has candle-making wax kits, too.) Tie a bow around the base of the egg cup, attaching a place card or small thank you.
Oriental Wedding Candle Favors
Creating unique wedding candle favors as a project is a good way to carry out an oriental wedding theme. The trick is to think of oriental objects that can hold a candle. The most obvious, of course, is an oriental tea cup – tall and narrow, with handle and lid. These can be expensive, but low cost cups are also available, especially if you work with a wholesale company. Choose a pretty pattern, insert a candle, and put the lid on it. Tie your place card to the handle with a pretty ribbon.
Spring Wedding Candle Favors
A spring idea for creating unique wedding candle favors as a project is to begin with tulip bouquet candles, available online from Lillian Vernon. These come in sets of 3: pink, yellow, and lilac bouquets. Use white and silver ribbon to tie a place card to each tulip bouquet and you’re done. For a whimsical touch, a note about “two lips” could be added to the card. These wedding candle favors are perfect for a spring wedding – especially with tulip centerpieces.
Tropical Wedding Candle Favors
A favorite tropical flower is the hibiscus, and floating hibiscus blossoms can be a quick way of creating unique wedding candle favors as a project for bride and bridesmaids. Begin with clear plastic dessert dishes 3″ to 4″ in diameter. Choose dishes with a short stem. Tie a ribbon around the stem of the dish, looping it through your place card. Fill each dish 1/2 full with water, and place a hibiscus floating candle in each. Candles are available online.
Seashore Wedding Candle Favors
You can create unique wedding candle favors for a seaside wedding using materials at hand. Order white, 13-hour votive candles from a bulk pillar candle supplier online. Purchase small plastic coasters, and pastel ribbon to match your wedding color scheme. Glue a candle in the center of each coaster. Glue a layer of sand around it. Make the sand come up over the bottom of the candle in an uneven pattern. Glue tiny seashells to the candles, and then tie with a bow, attaching your place card with the ribbon.
Involve Everyone
Creating unique wedding candle favors is a project in which you can involve nearly everyone in the family. You can create your favors all in one day, or do a few at a time. You may not use one of these ideas exactly as is, but perhaps the ideas given will spark your imagination.
The important thing is that you like the favors you create, and that they reflect your personality and interests. This is your day. Make it uniquely you in every way.

Long Lasting Floating candles for our Centerpiece?
I am looking for long lasting (over 8 hrs if possible) floating candles for our centerpieces.
Does any one have ideas where to go theses for a reseasonable price?
We used floating candles as our centerpiece also. We used the ones that float in glass holders like this
http://www.nationalartcraft.com/subcategory.asp?gid=12&cid=94&scid=219
We used the regular tealight holder and they worked great. I’ve never used the oil ones so I can’t tell you how well they work. As far as where to get them, we found them at a little craft store. It may be just as easy to order them online then to go out looking for them. Hope this helps!
can i use drinking glasses to put water and floating candles in at my wedding does anyone know?
Can you? Yes you can from the physical point of view.
Will it look elegant? I doubt it (depending on the glass design).
Will it be healthy to use drinking glasses to put a petroleum based product (and other chemicals)? Most likely not.
So it would be better to use something that is not used for food.
how long do it take floating candles to burn?
They are mid size round candles
Well my tiny tea lights in the metal cups burn for 3 hours.
Memorable Wedding Table Ideas
Every bride wants her wedding to be memorable – for herself and the groom, but also for their guests. A big part of making her wedding memorable is to select carefully from the myriad of memorable wedding table ideas. That selection begins with a dream, but it involves more than that.
Four Considerations
When searching for the most memorable wedding table ideas, you should keep four things in mind.
1. Significance: Whatever idea you use should have significance for you and your guests. This does not mean everyone attending your reception would have chosen the same wedding table ideas you chose, but there should be a meaningful reason for your selection. If you choose from among the many Irish wedding table ideas, and you are Asian American, there would seem to be no significance. If, however, you are getting married on St. Patrick’s Day, and your color scheme is green and white, Irish wedding table ideas are fine.
If you are having a themed wedding, you should select from among wedding table ideas that will carry out that theme.
2. Color Scheme: Most memorable wedding table ideas carefully adhere to the color scheme of the wedding. If you will be dressed in white and your bridesmaids will be in soft summer yellows, look at wedding table ideas that can naturally accommodate soft yellows and white. In this case, the Irish wedding table ideas mentioned above would be out of place.
3. Budgetary Concerns: No matter how many beautiful wedding table ideas you find, you will be able to use only those that fit within your budget – and you should have a budget for your wedding. Plan how much you will allow for the centerpiece on each table, and how much each guest’s wedding favor will be. Give yourself a firm budget before you begin looking, and stick to it.
4. Commemorative Favors: You will want wedding table ideas that incorporate wedding favors, and mark the favors in such a way that they will commemorate your wedding day. The marking may be as simple as a small paper tag imprinted with your names and the date – or the same information might be inscribed on glass or metal. If the favor is candy, cookies, or other edibles, have the rappers imprinted.
Flower Baskets
Brides who use flower baskets for weddings can carry the theme into wedding table ideas for receptions. One clever idea is to construct centerpieces of flower baskets, each filled with miniature bouquets. Use flowers similar to those carried by the wedding party, and tuck them into tiny silver or glass vases inscribed with your names and the date. Set a tent card on each table instructing guests that each may take one of the mini bouquets at the end of the reception as a wedding favor, thereby dismantling the arrangement.
Flower basket wedding table ideas go another direction when you place regular flower basket centerpieces, and echo them in miniature flower basket favors. Again, consider your colors and theme. Small folded cards attached with a bit of ribbon will give a place for your commemorative note.
Floating Candle Centerpiece and Favors
Most people enjoy candlelight, and if your wedding is in the evening, you might want to consider wedding table ideas that make use of candles. Arrange a large floating candle on a slightly raised stand in the center of each table. Surround it with small candles, each floating in a pretty container engraved with your names and date. Twine flowers or ivy among the candles, and advise guests that each of them may take one of the smaller candles as their wedding favor at the end of the reception.
Hurricane Lamp Centerpiece and Favors
Nostalgic wedding table ideas are always in vogue, since weddings are romantic occasions. Set the mood for nostalgia by placing on each table a tall hurricane lamp chimney mounted on a candle holder. Place a tall candle inside, matching your colors, and surround the candle holder with real or artificial flowers. Do not use thin tapers, as you want your candle to burn throughout the reception. Prepare a miniature edition of this for each guest’s place, and light them also. Use very small hurricane lamp chimneys and shallow glass candle holders for guests’ candle favors. Place short white candles in the candle holders, set the hurricane lamp chimney in place, and surround the bottom with delicate artificial flowers and ribbon to match your colors. If you wish, the candle holder or lamp chimney can be engraved.
Oriental Wedding Table Ideas
If your wedding is to follow an Oriental theme, you will want to consider wedding table ideas to continue the theme. Bright red tablecloths are a good place to begin, as red is traditionally used in many Oriental weddings. Gold or silver favors will stand out against the red. Center each table with a floral arrangement of red and green, with white, silver, or gold touches.
For a distinctly Chinese theme, use white or off-white tablecloths, and make your centerpiece of wedding favors. Arrange bare branches in a bamboo or black lacquer container. From the branches, hang miniature red Chinese lantern favors. To each, attach a commemorative tag. If your budget will allow, use silver or gold colored fortune cookie place card holders as additional favors.
Your Own Wedding Table Ideas
The best wedding table ideas are those each bride creates after doing her homework. There are many galleries of ideas on the Internet. Look until you find something you like, and then tailor that idea to be your own.
