Let customers speak for us
I hosted a candle-making event at Candle Castle & Co., and it was such a great experience! We had about 14 people, and the team made it so fun and easy. The store itself is super cute, and we each made beautiful candles to take home. They did a wonderful job hosting, and I’ll definitely be back for another event! 💛
We had an amazing time making candles, the atmosphere was cozy and we loved our teacher:).
Great class! Very professional and informative.
Absolutely adorable little shop. We had such a fun experience! great idea for a girls day out. Love my candle too!
This candle smells great and burns really well. I've had trouble keeping wood wicks lit in the past, especially with soy wax (which this candle seems to be), but I'm having no trouble at all with this one!
This was my first time experiencing this event and I really enjoyed myself. Our host was very friendly and helpful
Such a fun experience. Our instructor guided us through all of the steps and was really kind. 10/10
This is something different and a lot of fun for the family. My daughters did some research and picked this place out. Owners are very nice, place is great and my wife loved it. Highly recommended. Lots of places to eat in the area also.
It was amazing, thorough, and they were really caring towards safety to not injure yourself
I had a wonderful time celebrating my friend's birthday here. The instructor, Eliianna, was so delightful and fun. The scents, the vessels, and the toppings were all so good!!
Everything was amazing ,our host was so fun and great spirit .This was the best anniversary date for us for sure .Would definitely do again .
Went for a date night with my girlfriend and had an amazing time. The guy that was working was fantastic, super easy to get along with, and we loved our candles! thanks!!
