Candles is one of the least expense decorations that you can purchase.

 Candles is one of the easiest decorations to transport and set up.

When nothing else fits, a candle will fit in a small place.

Clusters of candles make a picturesque setting.

Question from a Bride and Groom . . Do we have to have a two ring wedding ceremony?

Response . . No, exchanging wedding rings is not a legal requirement.  If you are only using one wedding ring during the ceremony, your officiant should be informed of that before the wedding ceremony begins.
