About Baptismal Candles:
Baptismal candles are central to the baptismal ceremony and usually include one large decorated white candle for the ceremony and smaller, more basic, candles to be carried by the children who participate in the ceremony. The main baptismal candle is typically 24” to 32" in height (but may be any length of choice) and decorated with bows, tulle satin, or organza. It can be a tapered candle or a heavier, thick candle – depending upon the preference of the Godparents.
After the Sacrament of Baptism, while the baby is being dressed into the new baptismal clothing, the children are called to the altar and hold their baptismal candle. When the baby returns to the altar, the main decorated baptismal candle is lit. The priest, the godparents and the children – with their candles lit – walk around the font three times - symbolizing a dance of celebration for the baby who has newly entered into the church.
