Our Story

Candle Me With Love began with a quiet realization: the most meaningful parts of our lives are the ones we can’t hold onto.

As a healthcare professional working closely with patients during COVID, founder Mai witnessed moments that reshaped her understanding of time, memory, and what truly matters. In those deeply human spaces, people didn’t reflect on things- they reflected on experiences. The laughter they shared, the people they loved, the memories that stayed.

It became clear that while life can feel fleeting, the emotions tied to meaningful moments have a way of lasting.

That realization stayed with her.

In a world where gifting feels routine- flowers that wilt, items that are quickly set aside- Mai found herself searching for something different. Something that could hold space a little longer. Something that didn’t just mark a moment, but carried it forward.

Candle Me With Love was created from that intention.

Each piece is thoughtfully designed to feel like more than a product. From hand-scultped candle bouquets that mirror the beauty of florals to signature scents like Cashmere Cloud, Matcha Moon, and Sagewood Muse. Every detail is rooted in emotion, memory, and experience.

The goal isn’t just to give something beautiful- it’s to create something that lingers. A reminder of a celebration. A gesture of love. A moment someone wants to hold onto just a little longer.

Based in St. Paul Minnesota, Candle Me With Love reflects a growing shift toward more intentional living and meaningful connection. It’s for those who want their gifts to feel personal, thoughtful, and lasting.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about what we give- it’s about how it makes someone feel, and the memories it leaves behind.

“I created Candle Me With Love during a season where I needed more softness in my own life. What started as a small creative outlet became something deeply meaningful- a way to express care, intention, and love in a tangible form.

Thank you for being here and allowing something I created with love to be a-apart of your space.”

With love,

Mai
