Truly a unique gift that everyone will remember, this basket of candles and accompanying poem are a must for every bridal shower. The poem is read at the shower as a basket of candles listed below is given to the Bride-To-Be.
- 2 White candles wrapped in white lace
- 2 Green tapers
- 2 Navy blue candles
- 2 Pink candles
- 2 Cream candles
- 2 Red candles
- 2 Purple candles
- 2 Light blue candles
- 2 more candles for their 25th anniversary. The bridal shower candle poem doesn't mention the color. Silver symbolizes twenty-five years of marriage if you can find candles in that color. Or add two silver candle holders to go with these.
A Basket of Candles for {insert Bride's name here}A basket of candles that come in a pair
In all different colors, for you two to share
The white ones burn first
They are wrapped in white lace
To celebrate your first married night
In your new chosen place.
The green pair is taller, and also much thinner
Burn with the first company, you have over for dinner.
The dark blue candles are for after your first fight
Use them to burn while making up all night.
Pink candles set the mood and pave the way
For your first married Valentine’s Day.
Now, when your first year of marriage is through
The cream anniversary pair, will light for you two.
Red candles aflame, both your futures are bright
Celebrate promotions you’
ve worked toward with all of your might.
By this time we hope, maybe, just maybe
You can light the purple ones, on the birth of your baby.
And just when you thought you’d put these away
Take the light blue ones out-for your fifth anniversary day.
Now just one more pair left - for the big 2 5
The anniversary pair that will keep your love alive.
Congratulations {insert Bride and Groom's names}
On the start of your forever
May the two of you always be happy together
And burn these candles just the way we said
But please don’t forget-blow them out before bed!
