Re: Sweet Sixteen Candle Lighting Ceremony

Each of the 17 candles have a meaning. The first candle is for your parents, the second candle is for your siblings if you have any if not then grandparents. Now candle

3 to 6 is for the rest of your family.

7-14 is for your friends.

15 is your best friend(s)

16 is the guy that is always there for you, usually a boyfriend or your best guy friend. And

17 is inspiration or luck candle.

Q: How do I decide who to include in my candle ceremony?

A: This ceremony, where each birthday candle is dedicated to people who have played a significant role in your life, is typically done at sweet 16 parties as well as quinces. Usually family members, friends and padrinos are on top of the list. Of course, you donít want to forget anyone, so the decision can get a little tricky. First, instead of trying try to choose specific people, think of the events in your life you are most proud of or the events that are most special to you. Then ask yourself: Who was there? Who helped to make them so memorable? If your list starts getting long, pair people together, suggests Eva Menjivar Ottosson, an event planner from O Design Solutions in San Diego. For example, have your grandparents share one candle and your brothers and sisters share another.
