Sea Love is a candle bar and boutique in The Shops at Sea Pines Center, on Lighthouse Road inside Sea Pines. You pick your scents, choose a vessel and pour your own candle with a staff member walking you through each step. It is an indoor activity, and one that works when the beach day gets rained out.
Pouring a Candle at the Candle Bar
The shop offers more than 100 scents to blend, so the candle you take home is your own mix. A pour typically takes 45 to 60 minutes. Candles need a couple of hours to cool before they can leave the store, so book early in the day if you want to collect yours the same afternoon. Reservations for the candle bar are made through the shop's online booking, and guests sign a waiver when they arrive. Beer and wine are sold in the shop during the session.
Reviewers describe families, girls' trips and friends all making candles side by side, with patient, hands-on help from the staff. One family came in with a ten-year-old who chose the scents and made the label himself. One family, celebrating a sweet sixteen, found Sea Love when rain cancelled their beach day.
The Boutique
The boutique side sells ready-made candles, home fragrance and diffusers, home decor, apparel, accessories, children's items and some food and drink. The shop describes its products as phthalate-free and vegan, made with locally sourced and recyclable materials.
