Are Quick Candles scented or unscented?

It depends on the specific candle. Many colors are available in both scented and unscented versions across different product types. Click into any color collection to browse the full selection, then visit the individual product page for scent details, burn time, and sizing.

What's the difference between white and ivory candles?

White candles are a bright, cool white. Ivory is a warmer, creamier off-white with a slight yellow tone that pairs well with natural linens, wood, and earthy florals. White reads more modern and minimal; ivory reads softer and more traditional.

Will the candle color fade or change as it burns down?

No. Quick Candles are colored throughout the wax — the color is mixed in, not painted or dipped onto the surface. As the candle burns, it stays the same color all the way through with no white core showing.

What candle color works best for weddings?

White and ivory are the most popular choices for weddings. Gold and champagne work well for formal receptions with warm lighting. For color-coordinating with bridesmaid dresses or florals, choose a candle from the same color family. Ivory is neutral enough to work alongside almost any color scheme.

Can I mix different candle colors on the same table?

Yes. White and ivory together for a tonal look, gold and natural for a warm harvest table, or a single bold color paired with ivory are all common approaches. Mixing heights — such as 3x3, 3x6, and 3x9 pillar sizes — adds visual depth.

Do I need a candle holder for pillar candles?

Yes. For safety and longer burn times, pillar candles should always be used with a glass pillar candle holder or plate. Candle holders are not included with your candles but are available separately on the Quick Candles site.

Can I order candles in bulk and save?

Yes. Quantity discounts are built into each product listing — no wholesale account required. Sets of 6, 12, and 24 are available for most colors and sizes. Free shipping applies on orders of $79 or more.

Why shop candles by color?

Color-matched candles make the difference between a table that looks assembled and one that looks designed. Whether you're coordinating with bridesmaid dresses, matching a venue's linen, or building a seasonal display, starting with color is the fastest way to get it right.

Wedding & reception centerpieces

White and ivory pillar candles remain the classic choice for wedding ceremonies and reception tables. Gold and champagne tapers add warm candlelight to formal dinners, while colored candles in pink, burgundy, or purple let you coordinate with bridesmaid dresses, florals, and wedding favors down to the exact shade.

Colored throughout, not surface-dipped

Quick Candles are hand-poured with color mixed into the wax — not painted or dipped over white. That means the color stays consistent as the candle burns down, with no white core showing through. Every pillar, taper, and votive looks the same on day one as it does at the end of the burn.

Bulk candles for restaurants & event venues

Restaurants, event planners, and florists rely on unscented candles that burn clean and long without competing with food or fragrance. Every color is available in bulk quantities at discounted pricing — pillar candles, taper candles, and votive candles all ship fast from our warehouse.

Seasonal & holiday color palettes

Orange, gold, and natural for fall harvest and Thanksgiving. Red, green, silver, and white for the holiday season. Soft pinks, ivory, and lavender for spring weddings. Black and white for modern or dramatic tablescapes year-round. Stock up by season without over-committing your inventory.

Frequently asked questions

Are Quick Candles scented or unscented?

It depends on the specific candle. Many colors are available in both scented and unscented versions across different product types — pillar candles, votive candles, taper candles, and more. Click into any color collection to browse the full selection, then visit the individual product page for scent details, burn time, and sizing.
What's the difference between white and ivory candles?

White candles are a bright, cool white — clean and crisp. Ivory is a warmer, creamier off-white with a slight yellow tone that pairs well with natural linens, wood, and earthy florals. Both are popular for weddings; white reads more modern and minimal, ivory reads softer and more traditional. If you're unsure which to match to your décor, ordering a single candle from each collection before committing to bulk is the best way to compare in person.
Will the candle color fade or change as it burns down?

No. Quick Candles are colored throughout the wax — the color is mixed in, not painted or dipped onto the surface. As the candle burns, it stays the same color all the way through, so there's no white core showing and no fading mid-event.
What candle color works best for weddings?

White and ivory are the most popular choices for weddings and remain timeless in almost any venue. Gold and champagne work well for formal receptions with warm lighting. If you're color-coordinating with bridesmaid dresses or floral arrangements, selecting a candle color from the same family — for example, blush pink for a soft pink palette or burgundy-red for a jewel-tone theme — creates the most cohesive tablescape. When in doubt, ivory reads as neutral enough to work alongside almost any color scheme.
Can I mix different candle colors on the same table?

Yes, and it's a common approach for creating visual depth. A few combinations that work well: white and ivory together for a tonal look, gold and natural for a warm harvest table, or a single bold color like red or purple paired with ivory to let it stand out. The most important thing is to keep the candle heights varied so the arrangement has dimension — mixing 3×3, 3×6, and 3×9 pillar sizes in the same color family is a simple way to achieve this.
Do I need a candle holder for pillar candles?

Yes. For safety and longer burn times, pillar candles should always be used with a glass pillar candle holder or plate. Candle holders are not included with your candles, but Quick Candles carries a full range of pillar holders and plates that are designed to fit the Richland pillar candle dimensions.
Can I order candles in bulk and save?

Yes. Quantity discounts are built into each product listing — no wholesale account required. Sets of 6, 12, and 24 are available for most colors and sizes, with the per-candle price dropping as quantity increases. Free shipping applies on orders of $79 or more.
