Decorating Your Wedding Altar with Candles

Your wedding altar is the heart of your ceremony — where vows are exchanged and forever begins. Adding candles brings warmth, depth, and romance to this sacred space.

 Why Candles Belong at the Altar
The flicker of candlelight represents hope and unity. It turns any setting — church, garden, or beach — into a moment of pure intimacy.

 Styling Ideas for an Elegant Candle Altar
- Place a Unity Candle Set at the center of your altar table  
- Surround it with wooden holders in varying heights  
- Add flowers, greenery, or crystals to accent the glow  
- Use ivory or cream tones for timeless beauty  

 Pro Tip: Layer the Lighting
Combine candles with soft fairy lights or lanterns to enhance the atmosphere, especially for evening ceremonies.

 A Personal Touch
Choose candles that reflect your story — natural wax, personalized engravings, or handmade details.
