What is a memorial candle

A memorial candle is a candle that is lit or displayed in memory of a person who has died. It is often used as a way to honour and remember the person, and can be used in a variety of settings, including religious ceremonies, funerals, and at home.

Memorial candles are often personalised with the name and dates of the person who has passed away, and can be used during a memorial service or placed in a special location, such as a memorial garden or cemetery.

They can also be used as a way to remember or honour a loved one on anniversaries or special days. Some memorial candles are specially designed to have longer burning time, some are made with special scents to evoke memories and emotions, and some can be placed in a special holder or lantern to make it more decorative.
