What to expect

1-4 Guests

The Blend Experience typically lasts 45-60 minutes, offering an engaging and creative session. After completing your custom candle, it will take about 2 hours to set before it's ready for you to take home and enjoy. You can come back after those 2 hours or any time before we close that day. For groups of 5 or more we ask that you pick your candles up the next business day to allow time for packaging. We also hold your candles for up to 30 days, so feel free to come back another day to pick them up. Candles can be shipped for $12 per candle.

Aire’ Mists are ready to take home immediately after blending!

While you wait for your candles to set, feel free to shop in our retail section and enjoy a 20% off discount! Be sure to take Instagram-worthy photos at our selfie wall!

5-6 Guests (No Private Party):

For groups of five or more who wish to participate in our candle-pouring experience without booking a private party, we include a nominal fee of $5 per person. This fee helps us provide the additional time, resources, and personalized guidance needed to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience for larger groups. The experience typically takes about 90 minutes. For groups of 5 or more we ask that you pick your candles up the next business day to allow time for packaging.

Private Party 5-15 Guests:

For groups of five or more, we recommend booking a private party as these larger gatherings require more time than our standard candle pouring experience, which is designed for 1-4 guests. This allows your group to fully enjoy the experience without feeling rushed and time to socialize. Our private party room offers an intimate and exclusive environment for your group to collectively enjoy the candle pouring experience. To book a party of 5 or more fill out form at the bottom of the Private Party page.
