Marcie made a custom sized candle to fit inside a lantern for my husband and I's unity candle. The candle was so unique and beautiful we got SO MANY compliments on it. It looks great on display in our living room and the custom size fit absolutely PERFECTLY inside the lantern. Literally could not have turned out better. Marcie kept us informed throughout the whole process of making the candle and the candle arrived shipped all the way to Iowa well packed and undamaged. Good quality candle too and not flimsy in any way. Was exactly the way I imagined it!!!
Beautifully crafted unity candle set! It made it all the way up to Alaska in perfect condition!
My mom ordered glitter rose taper candles from Marcie to go along with our unity candle. They are GORGEOUS!! The craftsmanship is top notch- they are so delicately crafted and have just enough sparkle. They truly are one of a kind and really made our unity candle piece something special. The packaging is also wonderful and when you receive it (we also received ours quickly and without issue) you will feel that you have something of quality. If you go with Marcie for any products to make your big day even more special you won’t be disappointed- I highly recommend her and Forest Candle Studio
Marcie was WONDERFUL and extremely passionate and professional with her business. I reached out to her for a unity candle for my wedding as she offered a unique candle that I have never seen in stores or at another wedding. My fiancé and I feel in love with it and thought it was worth every penny. She makes these candles by hand and communicates very well during the process to keep you posted on the status of your candle. She also emails to let you know when the item ships and then emailed again once received to make sure the package arrived safely and there is nothing wrong with the candle. So many people on Etsy just use Etsy to communicate and that is OK, however, when someone takes the time to email me personally and follow up multiple times it makes me feel like my order is truly special. We can’t wait to have this candle photographed for our wedding and I’m so grateful to Marcie for adding such a unique and personal touch to our wedding. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience shopping with Forest Candle Studio/Marcie, but you'll see I tried! I originally reached out to her about a more expensive set to use for our unity candle portion of our wedding and she went into thorough detail about why her prices between sets vary either due to size or detailing including actual measurements and pictures between the options. Wow.
Needless to say I was impressed, very few owners take nearly a fraction of the time to answer such mundane questions and yet I got so much help and consideration when communicating with Marcie. She was always understanding of our financial situation and did not make us feel any less appreciated as potential customers.
Marcie was always readily available and extremely knowledgeable and helpful when deciding on items to purchase. Instead of falling back on the ease of redirecting us through her store to navigate our options ourselves, she included all her information about why she charges what she does. I have no doubt in my mind, with her artistry and attention to detail such as outsourcing her glitter from England so that it is specifically made for candles and safe to burn, never mind the many labor intensive hours to hand make, made me feel much better about the option.
With many other candles, the detail added to the external part of the candles is non-flammable and personally makes me very uneasy since you want to burn a candle, not worry about if you can burn it, it's...a...candle, it should be able to burn. End of story haha Not only that, but because the candles are made to include internal and external detail, other unity candle shops I noticed either painted on two dimensionally or just glued some lace or rhinestones around the outside, neither options could, wait for it, hold a candle to the beauty and intricacy of Marcie's designs.
The designs are very labor intensive and speak for themselves. You definitely get what you pay for; I've never seen anything else like them and could only be lucky enough to have such art be a part of our day. The rose candle will always have my heart, to me, it adds such an authentic and romantic feel to the day which already encompasses so much love. Instead of a standard pillar, a ravishing rose with your choice of petal color is genius and a modern take on a unity candle, with a classic and timeless sensibility. For those who want glam, I highly suggest the glittered edges, SO PRETTY. We ultimately, went with a set of tapers with petals to match our colors and glittered edges because GLITTER. Who doesn't love just a bit of that?
All in all, it's just a candle right? But then why would you be bothering to look at pretty unity candle sets in the first place? Because you need something special and personalized for your once-in-a-lifetime day and after seeing what this store offered, I stopped looking.
Feel completely at ease when purchasing from Forest Candle Studio and if you still have any questions or doubts, reach out and don't feel shy or ashamed to ask. I found it to be one of the best customer service interactions I've had and when planning a wedding and all the vendors you interact with, that's saying a lot! Thank you for all your help in completing our day Marcie, and supplying us with something we knew we needed, but also making it a beautiful addition to our day encapsulating how special it truly is!
