A wedding anniversary candle is a traditional part of anniversary celebrations.
Love Burns Bright
Many people purchase special candles that are used only for their anniversary. They light each year to show that their love is still as strong as when they were first married and that they have had the joy of celebrating another year together. You can purchase these candles or you can make them yourself easily. There are a number of candle making kits that you can use to make yours, you could decorate it with dried flowers or confetti. Use melted wax to attach the items to the candle and then put a coat of wax on the top to ensure they don't get damaged. Be careful with the hot wax and make sure you buy a nice big candle to keep on going!
Technology has increased the versatility and the novelty of a wedding anniversary candle. You can have a picture of the two of you, or of the couple if it is being purchase for them rather than by them, placed on the candles directly along with the date and their names.
Candle Favors
Many people have anniversary parties to celebrate milestones, as with most parties it is traditional to have favors, which are passed out to all the guests as a reminder of the party and as a way of saying thank you for attending. Favors can be just about anything and a wedding anniversary candle is a great favor for anniversary parties. You can have the candles engraved or designed with the initials and date or the names of the couple.

Candle Gifts
Anniversary candles also make great wedding gifts, or maybe one of the first purchases a couple makes together. This type of anniversary candle is given or purchased at the time of marriage and is brought out and lit only once a year on the anniversary. It is important to get the largest candle that is possible. While it is not necessary to use a single candle for the entirety of the marriage it is the idea behind the anniversary candle.
