I should probably know this, but how many unity candles do you typicaly have? I've seen a center pillar candle sold with 2 tapered candles on the sides, but then I've just seen one pillar candle called a unity candle. Please let me know what's normal Thanks!!!

Re: Confused about Unity Candles
There should be a total of 3 candles. One center candle with two tapers. You and your DH light the center candle with the two tapers.

Re: Confused about Unity Candles
I've seen both. The unity candles with the 2 taper candles are used by the parents of the bride and groom. I think (but I'm not positive) that if you have one pillar candle and no tapers that it is just the bride and groom that light it.
