How many candles should I use per table at a wedding?Updated 2 months ago
It depends on your table size, layout, and overall look.
For a round table seating 8–10 guests, 3–7 candles work beautifully—often a mix of heights and styles like pillar candles, dinner candles, or tealights for a layered glow.
For long banquet tables, repeat groupings every 60–80cm (or every 4 guests) for even coverage. Don’t forget to balance with your florals and décor, and always consider flame safety if using real candles.
Remember, space your candles at least 10cm apart for best burn results!
