I had an amazing time at the Valentine’s Day candle-making event! The space was beautifully decorated, and the setup was so easy to follow. I loved being able to create my own heart-shaped candle with a wood wick or triple cotton wicks.
The refreshments were delicious, and the photo backdrop was stunning—perfect for capturing the night. The whole event felt special and well-organized. I left with a gorgeous candle and great memories!
Highly recommend this event for a unique and fun Valentine’s celebration!
