＼Wedding Reception Performance／ What Are the Appeals of "Candle Relay"???

Along with its romantic origin, "Candle Relay" has many charms! It's sure to make you want to incorporate it into your reception performance right away! ♡

＊Flow of "Candle Relay"＊

First, the bride and groom enter, and at the entrance, they receive the flame from a representative of the family or a close guest. ♡

Once they receive the flame, they connect the lights.＊ The bride and groom go around to the guest tables and present the flame of the candle to one representative from each table. ♩

Once they receive the flame, they sequentially pass the flame to the next person, like a relay, gradually creating a romantic atmosphere in the venue... ♡

When everyone has connected the lights, the flame is returned from the representative to the torch held by the bride and groom.＊ The bride and groom then light the wedding candle and vow eternal love. ♡

They once again take the candle that received the flame and, with a wish for the happiness of everyone in the venue to continue forever, everyone gently blows out the candle flame together. ♩

Appeal of Candle Relay ①＊All Guests Can Participate＊

The Candle Relay involves going around every guest table and lighting each guest's candle. *By passing the flame like a relay, when all the guests' candles are lit, everyone in the venue can experience a sense of unity, emotion, and achievement. ♡
