✅ Pre-booking Checklist

• Confirm the exact quote, language, and font with the vendor and approve a digital proof before production begins.
• Request a physical sample of the candle and packaging at least two weeks before the event date.
• Verify burn time specifications — a standard 200 ml candle should last at least 35 hours.
• Check fragrance ingredients for allergens, especially if elderly guests or children will receive the gift.
• Clarify bulk pricing tiers and whether discounts apply at your required quantity (50, 100, 200+ units).
• Confirm whether the studio handles end-to-end packaging into handcrafted gift boxes or if you need a separate packaging vendor.
• Lock in your order at least 14 days before the event; 3–4 weeks for peak wedding season in Chandigarh.

🎯 Selection Criteria

• Wax quality and type — soy, paraffin, or beeswax — based on your budget and eco preferences.
• Fragrance range and throw strength — ensure the scent is appropriate for the occasion and guest profile.
• Personalisation depth — choose between template-based, semi-custom, or fully bespoke designs.
• Packaging quality — assess whether boxes, ribbons, and fillers match your event's aesthetic.
• Vendor reliability and sample process — prioritise studios that provide proofs and physical samples.
• Turnaround time and delivery capacity — confirm the studio can meet your deadline without rushing production.

💰 Cost / Quality Factors

• Wax base choice directly affects cost: soy and beeswax cost 30–50% more than paraffin per unit.
• Fragrance grade (cosmetic-grade vs. synthetic) affects both price and scent longevity.
• Engraving or embossing adds ₹100–₹300 per unit but significantly elevates perceived gift value.
• Order quantity is the single biggest lever — bulk orders above 100 units typically reduce per-unit cost by 15–25%.
• Custom packaging (rigid boxes, jute bags) can double packaging cost but dramatically improves unboxing experience.
• Rush orders attract a 20–40% premium — always plan ahead to avoid this cost.

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Skipping the design proof stage and discovering typos or font issues only after 300 candles are produced.
• Ordering without confirming burn time, resulting in candles that last only a few hours.
• Choosing fragrance based on personal preference alone without considering guest sensitivities.
• Underestimating lead time for bulk personalised message candles and being forced to accept a rush-order surcharge.
• Ignoring packaging durability, leading to damaged candles during transport to a venue or outstation delivery.
• Failing to order a buffer quantity (at least 5–10% extra) to account for breakage or last-minute additions to the guest list.
