By Sophia C.

Your wedding day, one of the most important days in any couples' life together is a time for romance, tradition and sharing your love with the people who mean the most to you - your family and friends. Once you've selected the theme of your wedding, the colors and the date, it's time to start picking out the little touches that will make your wedding stand out and be remembered for all time. You can do this by adding the warm ambiance of candles to your wedding decor that also double as wedding favors for guests to enjoy.

Personalized votives. These inexpensive and versatile wedding favors can give you a lot of bang for the buck at your wedding event. Buy them in bulk, have them etched with your initials or a special picture to set out on tables. Then fill with anything you like - from inexpensive tea-light candles, to scented gels, seashells or colored stones, you can find many ways to use votives to give your wedding dcor a wonderful glow. Guests can then take them home to enjoy after the wedding to remember your special day always.

Gel candles. There are a large variety of candle wedding favors you can find for your special day. Gel candles, which come in all colors, scents and sizes, make wonderful wedding favors. Gel candles are known for giving off a much better scent when lit. You can even find some that have little things inside like flowers, seashells or gems to make your wedding day sparkle.

Heart shaped candles. A wedding is about the joining of two hearts, so why not use heart shaped candles in your wedding decor? You can set them on individual votives or candle plates. For an even more stunning look, try grouping several heart candles in a deep rich red on mirrors on the centers of the tables as a focal point for guest to enjoy.

Floating candles. These are wonderful to use in just about any wedding theme. The great thing about floating candles, besides being available in every shape, color and scent imaginable, is that you can use them without worrying about starting a fire. Place floating candles in bowls, buckets or pails and set on and around tables for fun accents. Great for a casual or elegant wedding theme.

Sand candles. Think back to those happy childhood memories and you will most likely think of playing at the beach or spending family vacations along the seashore. If you are like many couples, you will be planning a romantic honeymoon at a beach destination so why not allow your wedding guests to enjoy some of that by giving out little sand castle candle favors? It's a nice way to thank them for coming to share in your wedding day and to let them know you will be thinking of them as you embark on a new journey as a couple.

With a little imagination, you can incorporate candles as part of any wedding decor and as giveaway wedding favors to help your guests remember this special day in your life. Wedding candle favors can be enjoyed for years to come by not only your wedding guests, but also as your spouse and you celebrate each happy anniversary together.
