functional. <span class=\"il\">Sam<\/span> had this idea to use the candle and succulent centerpieces as wedding favors and use matchboxes as place cards. The goal was for it to be beautiful on the day, and then have everyone take home a piece of the night. Our favorite candles are from Standard Wax, who specialize in thoughtfully designed ceramic containers specifically made to be reused long after the candle burns down. Our centerpieces were a mixture of their soy candles and succulents planted in reused or empty vessels. The guests loved it, there wasn&rsquo;t anything left on the tables at the end of the night. This also meant we didn&rsquo;t have to spend money on flower decorations.
