You could buy candles for the day. But you'd spend about the same on ones that look it, then store and lug home boxes you'll never use again. Hire instead and you get the real, high-end sand-wax candles in clear glass for a similar price, and none of the fuss. These are the candles styled at the weddings you've been pinning. You order online, collect your crates, light them on the day, and drop them back. No stock to store, no wax to scrape, nothing wasted. Just the look you wanted, sorted.
Every collection is a fixed bundle of pre-filled candles, no counting, no surprises. Candles come in crates of 15, so collections are in multiples of 15. Table candles are a mix of 20cm and 25cm, in premium clear glass cylinders.
12 large floor candles, 30 to 50cm tall, for aisles, entrances and welcome signs. $180

"I use Candle Hire Co for almost every event now. They turn up pre-filled, I just place them and light them, and the room looks a million dollars. Pickup and return is a breeze and it has saved me hours."
"We wanted that warm, candlelit look without buying hundreds of candles we'd never use again. So simple, so beautiful, and honestly such good value. Our wedding photos are glowing!"
