About this Experience

What you'll do:

It’s a candle-making party with your best batches! You and your crew will pour, vibe, and create your very own custom 9–12 oz candle while enjoying drinks, music, and plenty of laughs. Guided by your personal Wax Chandler, you’ll choose from premium fragrance oils, blend your perfect scent, and craft a one-of-a-kind candle to take home. While your candle sets, sip on your included drink, play games, and soak up the good vibes. All you have to do is show up ready to create and connect!

Why we love it for your party:

  • All supplies included (premium soy wax, fragrance oils, wicks, vessel & more)

  • 1 drink included (mocktail, cocktail, beer, wine, soda, or water)

  • Curated playlist & fun games to keep the vibes high

  • Expert guidance for a bold, long-lasting scent

  • Hands-on, creative experience you can take home

Gave this experience as a birthday gift to the exchange student we're hosting. She and her friends had a lot of fun! The candles they created are very unique and the host was super friendly, fun and knowledgeable. I was super happy for her!

June 2025 • Bachelorette Party

This past weekend, The Raw Candle Company hosted the most incredible bachelorette party for my sister—and we are still buzzing from how perfect everything was! If you're looking for something fun, creative, and completely outside-the-box, this is your spot. From the moment we arrived, the vibe was immaculate. We had the entire studio to ourselves, which made it feel extra intimate and special. The team went above and beyond, adding personal bridal touches like “cheers” napkins, fun games, and other adorable details that made everything feel customized just for us. Now, let’s talk about the candle-making! Who knew learning about candles could be so fun? It was engaging, hands-on, and honestly such a unique twist on your typical bachelorette activity. We were laughing, learning, and creating something beautiful—all at once. The space was spotless, the customer service was top-notch, and the whole experience felt so well thought out and intentional. I cannot thank the owner, Ticca, enough for taking such great care of us! Her warmth, attention to detail, and passion for what she does truly made the day unforgettable. I can't recommend The Raw Candle Company enough for anyone planning a bachelorette, birthday, girls’ night out—or even just a fun, different kind of gathering. Wishing this amazing company nothing but HUGE success—you've got something truly special here! ✨🕯️💕

If I could give six stars, I would! My wife and I had The absolute honor and blessing of having Ticca lead us through a candlemaking session on Valentine’s Day. I never expected to have as much fun and as many belly laughs pouring candles as we did with Ticca. Her energy is contagious and warm, her smile and positivity radiates, in all she does, and is clearly incredibly gifted at teaching. I really can’t say enough about her. It’s worth any amount. Book her. Buy her stuff. Support this brilliant business owner and amazing human!! Can’t say enough good things. Thank you Ticca!

Ticca and the class was amazing and informative. I arrived to the class late due to my flight landing late, Tica was very understanding and welcoming once I arrived.

I had a really great experience in their candle making session. The host was well spoken, high spirited, and really knowledgeable of the candle process and made everyone feel comfortable. I will definitely do another session and share my experience with my family so they may do the same.
