Custom Wedding Favors

1/1/2023

Candle Favors for a Backyard Summer Wedding

When the question of wedding favors came up for our August '22 backyard wedding, the obvious choice for this candlemaker was, well, custom candles of course! 

I scoured Pinterest for inspiration and found a few ideas to add to my wedding notebook. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
These were a few amongst my favorite ideas.
Picture
This display, simple and pretty, became the inspiration for my final display/styling design.
​

Ideas in hand, I got down to making the choices that would fit my unique, personal wedding look & style. 

Picture
I collected a variety of neutral pottery & vintage style glass vessels. I also added a handful of this gorgeous green vessel to add a pop of my wedding color “fern” to the mix.
Picture
Picture
I ordered custom matchbox covers from Etsy and thank you card attachments from The Knot.  The cards are double sided with a simple "Love & Thanks" greeting on one side and a personal note of thanks and gratitude for joining us on our special day, on the flip side. I loved the look of attaching with either side showing, for a mixy/matchy feel that complimented my eclectic, curated vibe.
Picture
Picture

After creating & finalizing the custom fragrance blends (see those details below), I attached thank you cards
​to the poured candles with a fine, fern green, jute string. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
I mocked up this display a few weeks before the wedding so I could tweak and add to and adjust over time.
(One of the best things about having your wedding on your own property!)​

A guest took the photos below, day of the wedding.
​I am so grateful, as I didn't really get many
photos of our final set up (I was a little pre-occupied after all).

​Crafting Custom Wedding Fragrance Blends

I knew I wanted at least 2 different fragrance choices for my guests to choose from.
​I went to work pouring and playing with different oils and notes, combining a few of my favorite
​wedding day themes into the mix. 
Picture
I ended up with 3 unique fragrances that I felt truly reflected my special day. 

1. Midnight Garden- The photo above is a Moonlight Garden I planted at the beginning of the season. A Moonlight Garden consists of all white flowers that appear to glow in the Summer night. I created the Midnight Garden fragrance combining top notes of juicy pear and tonka bean merged with soft floral and marine notes cocooned in a powdery blend of dark musk and amber. It's a lovely, sweet yet sultry blend. 

2. Honeymoon Beach- With our Florida honeymoon in mind, I crafted this blend using sweet mandarin,
sand jasmine, refreshing oceanic mist and just a touch of teakwood and tobacco.
This fragrance blend carries you instantly to a warm & sandy beach,  where old school suntan lotion wafts
amongst the driftwood and coastline breezes.


3. Fern Wood Farm- The overall theme for our wedding was a forested, fern & garden vibe. I quite obviously had to add the "Fern" theme somewhere in my fragrance line up. Fernwood Farm is a sophisticated woodsy scent with vivid notes of eucalyptus, cypress, and tonka bean, and just a hint of smoke to round out this crisp, woodsy blend.  
Picture
Check out all those gorgeous ferns!

Since our wedding last Summer, I've had so many guests asking where they can find the fragrance blends they received as favors.  And so, last month while yet again doing another custom pour for a guest, I decided to simplify and add these blends to our fragrance line-up! 
You can now find these very special fragrances in our Roots Collection.
These blends are a welcome mix to our PNW brand & vibe, natural, fresh and with a lovely outdoorsy story too. 

Also....Did you know we offer custom wedding favor services? Indeed we do!
Large or intimate, formal or rustic, we can create something truly special
for you to share with your guests.

3 Wick Tips

4/11/2021

How to get the best results from our 3 wick candles

Our newest release, The Botanica Collection, is presented in handsome matte black vessels
​and the 16 oz. option features 3 wicks for burning. 
Picture

Why 3 wicks?

Our 2 main reasons for creating  a 3 wick offering -
#1 Three wicks = more ambient light:
3 wick candles beautifully provide even more lovely,
​stress-reducing, ambient light.
#2 Three wick sources = powerful scent throws:
more wicks allow for more fragrance to be released,
therefore are perfect for larger rooms and spaces. 
Picture

Get the best burn:

Initial burn: fun fact- wax has "muscle memory"!
With this in mind, to insure you
get the best and most out of your 3 wick candle is to
properly burn each and every time, and most importantly, the very first burn.

1. Be sure to trim each wick to 1/4" 

2. Light all 3 wicks for every burn (burning only one at time
will not extend the life of your candle, adversely this
will actually cause tunneling, and diminish the life of your candle.

3. Be sure you are able to burn your candle
for at least 3 hours on your initial burn. 

4. I use my watch to time burns so as to not exceed the
recommended 4 hour burn time, as well as to time my initial burns. 
​
5. You will notice that each wick starts to form it's own melt "pool".
For best results you want all 3 pools
to form 1 large pool. This is why we recommend the 3 hour burn, as it will 
take approx that long for the desired large pool to form. 
Picture
3 pools forming- 1 hour burn time
Picture
large pool formed- 3 hours burn time

​6.
 Because wax has "memory" your candle will
burn in the same matter each burn after this initial burn,
therefore creating that large pool the first time is essential. 
If candle is snuffed prior to achieving proper pooling,
your candle will "remember" 
this and will not burn properly there after. 

7.  As always, keep lit candles away from drafts and flammable items. 
And always be sure to burn on safe surfaces, candle vessels can get hot!
Be aware of your surface to avoid damage. ​
