Opinion - candles with picture - need help!

Original post by Future Mulligan

Ok, so I really really really really really want a candle lit aisle for the wedding ceremony. I have this romantic ceremony pictured in my head, dim lighting, candles, the string trio, a flowy chuppah, red flowers - so now you know my vision....

So I've been looking around and I found these on Ebay last night - its a set of two candle stands. I can buy 6 sets and have 12 candles total.

I think that I would do 4 on each side of the aisle and alternate them - high, low, high, low so there would be 8 candles down the aisle - then the other 4 i would put around or inside the chuppah....

I'm not crazy about the bottom of the stands - but I like the hurricane glass alot. I have to call JT and ask if we are allowed to do this - but I'm pretty sure I can do it as long as the candles are inside glass - I asked when we booked and they said it was fine but of course before I buy anything I have to confirm.

Honestly, do you think these would look good? Are the scrolls on bottom to much? I don't want to buy anything that looks cheap....

I love them and the idea but what time are you getting married? When I went in there to check it out it was a sunny day and very bright in there with all of the sky lights. just something to think about.



our ceremony is at 6pm on december 5, it will be dark out so there will be no light from the skylight - so that is why i want the room dimly light - not dark but just on a dim setting - it will really be up to AG though - i dont want it to dark that she cant get good pics - i know she likes to use a lot of light so i'll have to see what works for her too...

They are very pretty!!! Are they going to be on stands or on the floor?? I'd be worried someone would knock them over.



I agree..

I LOVE the vision though. That is how I imagine my reception--candles EVERYWHERE!!

What about using votives with tea lights and lining them down the aisle?

i think we are going to get them - they are the nicest/cheapest ones ive seen so far - ive been googling them and its not easy to find nice ones that arent too pricey.....i can always try and sell them after the wedding to the 09ers
