Candle Commissions
Designed for moments worth remembering
Some occasions deserve something made entirely for them.
Contento candles can be commissioned for weddings, anniversaries, celebrations, and gatherings where every detail matters. Each order is thoughtfully designed around your event, your space, and the people you are welcoming into it — scent, size, quantity, and presentation considered together.
Commissions are accepted on a limited basis, ensuring every order receives the care and attention it deserves.

Anniversary Celebration
A 30th wedding anniversary in Paris
— fifty candles, each one refined for the occasion, from the restaurant table to the journey home.
"Recently, we hosted an intimate dinner party in Paris for 23 dear friends to celebrate our 30th anniversary. We wanted each guest to leave with a meaningful keepsake that would capture the spirit of that special evening. Jane created the perfect custom candle for us, thoughtfully developed around our favourite notes. She made the entire process fun, easy, and deeply personal. The finished candle was truly beautiful — from the scent and packaging to the labelling and every thoughtful detail. We also placed smaller versions throughout the venue so the fragrance became part of the experience, and our guests were delighted to take home the larger candle as a reminder of the night. We now have our favourite candle, and we wholeheartedly recommend Jane to anyone looking for a custom candle experience."
— Alex & Tim, 30th Anniversary, Paris
Graduation
A Graduation celebration
— twenty candles, elegantly designed for the rooms of the home and the people who filled them.
How It Works
Every Commission is Different. That's the Point.
Each Contento commission begins with a conversation — about your occasion, your guests, and the atmosphere you want to create. From there, we work together on scent, size, vessel, and quantity until every detail feels right.
One
— Tell us about your occasion. A wedding, an anniversary, a celebration, a gathering. No occasion is too intimate or too grand.
Two
— We discuss scent, vessel, and size. Choose from the Contento signature collection or we'll explore what works best for your event.
Three
— Your candles are hand-poured in small batches in New Jersey and delivered ready to light, gift, or place.
To begin a conversation about your occasion, please get in touch.
