What goes on the front

Pick how the front looks. A photo fills the whole label, so it can’t share with a message or symbol. A text label can carry a message and a symbol together. A date works with either.

Optional extras add either or both

Questions, answered

How long does it take to design?
About five minutes. Say who it’s for, pick or write the words, add anything optional — a message, a date, a photo — then choose an ink colour and layout. You see the finished label on the candle the whole time.
Can I put a photo on the candle?
Yes. Choose a photo label and upload your picture — it fills the label, and you can pair it with a date. A text label can carry a message and a symbol instead.
Will I see the design before it’s printed?
Yes. We email a proof to approve before printing — nothing is made until you’ve approved it.
What can I personalize on the label?
The main line in your own words, an optional message, a date, a symbol, four ink colours, and a choice of layouts for both text and photo labels.

Personalized Memorial Candles

Every Afterlights memorial candle is personalized with your loved one’s name, turning a simple flame into a lasting tribute. Whether you’re looking for a custom memorial candle for the loss of a dad, a personalized candle to remember a mom, or a memorial candle gift for a grandparent, each one is made to carry their name and their memory. Add a name, a date, or a few words — and create a memorial candle that’s truly theirs.

A Sympathy Gift That Lasts

A memorial candle is a quiet, meaningful way to say what words can’t. Many people choose ours as a sympathy gift for a friend who lost a parent, a remembrance candle for a death anniversary, or a thoughtful gift for someone who is grieving. When flowers feel temporary, a personalized candle offers something that lasts — a small light to return to on hard days, birthdays, and anniversaries.

In Loving Memory

Afterlights makes memorial candles for loved ones who have passed — in loving memory of the people we carry with us. From in-memoriam candles and bereavement candles to candles for a funeral or memorial service, each is designed to honor a life and offer comfort to those left behind. Light one in memory of someone in heaven, and let their flame burn for everyone who still loves them.
