4 Ways to Use Candles at Your Bar or Bat Mitzvah

Candles are a beautiful addition to any Bar or Bat Mitzvah. They add a warm glow to any room and there are so many ways to incorporate them into your Mitzvah decor or party. A word of warning though–I always use LED candles in the tween area. You can never be too safe with unsupervised tweens and fire! In honor of the festival of lights, here are four different ways to easily incorporate different types of candles into your child’s Bar or Bat Mitzvah.

Floating Candles

Floating candles make an easy and relatively inexpensive centerpiece on their own or can compliment a larger centerpiece.

Votives

Votives add a little something extra to a centerpiece or a cocktail table. There are some very realistic LED votives available and you can also get unique votive holders or candles.
