Bringing Warmth and Fragrance Into Every Home
Founded in 1973 by Mabel Baker — who began crafting candles right in her own home — PartyLite has grown into one of the world's most recognized names in home fragrance. With a product line spanning richly scented candles, elegant candle holders, wax melts, diffusers, lanterns, and complementary home décor, PartyLite gives consultants a catalog that practically sells itself. There's something universally appealing about a beautifully scented home, and that emotional connection is the foundation of every PartyLite sale.
Who Becomes a PartyLite Consultant?
PartyLite consultants are passionate home-lovers who enjoy creating warm, inviting atmospheres — and helping others do the same. Many are stay-at-home parents, interior décor enthusiasts, or small-business-minded individuals looking for a flexible income stream that fits around their lifestyle. Because candles and fragrance make exceptional gifts, consultants often find their customer base naturally expands around holidays, housewarmings, and seasonal occasions. With over 20,000 active consultants operating across more than 30 countries, the PartyLite community is both well-established and genuinely supportive.
The Party Plan Advantage
PartyLite is a legacy party plan company — and for good reason. The in-home candle party remains one of the most effective formats in direct sales. When guests gather around a glowing display of candles, smell the fragrances firsthand, and feel the quality of the accessories, buying decisions come naturally. PartyLite consultants typically host:
- In-home candle parties where guests experience the full product range in a relaxed, social setting
- Virtual parties on Facebook, Instagram Live, or Zoom, expanding reach beyond the local community
- One-on-one lifestyle consultations for loyal customers who want personalized fragrance recommendations
- Pop-up events at markets, boutiques, and seasonal fairs
The sensory nature of candles and fragrance makes every format an experience, not just a transaction.
What Makes PartyLite Stand Out
In a crowded home fragrance market, PartyLite distinguishes itself through decades of brand heritage, consistent product quality, and an aesthetic that bridges everyday living with thoughtful gifting. Their candles are designed to be displayed, not just burned — which means customers invest in the accessories and décor pieces too, driving higher average order values for consultants. The company's global footprint also means training resources, seasonal catalogs, and product launches are well-organized and professionally produced, giving consultants a strong foundation to build on.
PartyLite's social selling focus has helped consultants modernize their businesses, using Instagram aesthetics and Facebook community-building to reach younger homeowners and gift-buyers who discover the brand online before ever attending a party.
