This is the first time I render candles, the ones included with the environment I chose (Primrose House), and it is underwhelming that at least these ones don't include a proper flame shader. It is just an emissive light. I had to mess with Photoshop to insert a flame in the candle closest to the couple (the one closer to the camera is quite out of focus, so I thought: why bother?), and I'm not very happy with the result.
But it is what it is.

by KindredArts. I only loaded the candles as props, then rendered them. No playing around in emissions or surfaces.You'll need to delete your candles, as there are a few around the scene, I'm hoping most of them are Instances, but you'll need to check that out yourself, then load a candle, fiddle with scale to fit your candlesticks, then use that candle to make enough Instances to fill the other candlesticks.

There is a way you could insert a ghost light inside the candle itself and point it .View attachment 3370329

I think they did add proper volumetric in the lastest update so we can have fires. Previously we had smoke and they had to have extra geometry that was emissive to achieve the effect. Should have just delayed it and done it right the first time but better late then never.

one more, now that I have enough time to render regularly... and, yes, it IS one more morning wood being taken care of, ok? It's not my fault I wake up horny and creative!
