A candle Pouring Party is a fun activity to do with your friends—and Pure Intentions Candle Company is here to curate and personalize it just for your crew. Here’s what you can expect at a Pouring Party and why it’s ideal for a special occasion or even just a night in.
Background on Who We Are at Pure Intentions Candle Company
For those that don’t know me, I was born and raised in Lafayette, La. This beautiful, vibrant paradise they call Acadiana is where I call home. I am a lover of life, light, and all things…good. I’m also a loving wife to my high school sweetheart Wendel and a brand new mommy to my miracle, Cameron. My friends say I’m a little extra, definitely an over thinker, passionate, and positive. Pure Intentions Candle Company is the beautiful manifestation of a lot of pain, loss, and prayer. It’s what happened by staying in the light through my darkest and saddest times. And now I hope to share that light with you.
We offer mobile Pouring Parties in various locations around Acadiana. We are as passionate about the art of candle making here, as we are about celebrating life and we love to share this creative and FUN experience with our guests. Our knowledgeable, enthusiastic hosts turn each party into an immersive experience that’s both educational and entertaining. If you want a fun activity to do with your friends, look no further. Our Pouring Parties are definite crowd-pleasers and we’ll talk you through what to expect each step of the way.
Prepare for a Pure Intentions Pouring Party
We keep the size of our parties relatively small to create an intimate experience for our guests. The average size of a workshop is 10-15 participants, and the cost starts at $40 for each person.
This fee includes all the materials you’ll need, such as the vessel to make your candle in and the fragrance oils to infuse it with. The Pouring Party will last anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour, plus an additional 45 minutes for the candle to set, so you can take it home.
At Pure Intentions Candle Company, we ensure the materials and fragrances you’ll use for your creation are non-toxic and safe for skin. Our standard candles hold about 9 ounces of wax for 50 hours of burn time, so not only is this a fun activity to do with your friends, but those memories of a shared bonding experience will continue each time you light the candle at home.
What You Will Experience During the Party
Once you’ve booked your party and we’ve arrived with the fun here is what to expect at your Pouring Party. In between laughter and conversation, your host will help you with each of the following steps in the candle making process:
- Pick your favorite Vessel and Fragrance from our large selection.
- Measure how much wax you’ll need for the candle.
- Measure the amount of Fragrance using a scale and beaker.
- Attach the wick to the bottom of your vessel.
- Pour fragrance oils into the wax, then stir to combine.
Cue the party games. Party games are a must at every party!! Play a game of the Sweetest Taboo, a fun FRAGRANT twist on the classic party-game Taboo. Or try viral fav, POUR. It’s a wicked good time that’s sure to light up everyone’s night!
Private Events or Collaborations
You can also take this fun activity to do with your friends up a notch with a private event or a collaboration with another local business. We love partnering with other unique artists and vendors in Acadiana. We offer collaborations that combine candle making with fitness, floral arrangement, soap or painting, private dinner, professional photography, content creation and so much more. This is just one of the ways we support our community of small business owners.
We love getting involved we can help you host a private event of pretty much any kind. From birthday parties and bachelorette weekends to family outings and corporate functions. Whether it’s a special occasion or you want a night with friends, candle making is the perfect choice.
