Good questions.
Everything you might want to know before you book.
How much does a candle class at Boho Bungalow cost?
A candle class at Boho Bungalow's Petaluma Candle Bar costs $64 per person. That covers all your materials, instruction, and the soy candle you pour and take home.
How long is the candle class?
The candle class runs about two hours from start to finish. Your candle then cures overnight, so you'll come back the next day to pick it up.
Where is the candle class held?
The candle class is held at the Candle Bar inside Boho Bungalow's Petaluma store, at 143 Kentucky Street in downtown Petaluma, California.
Do I need any candle making experience?
No experience is needed. Our instructors guide you through every step, from choosing your scent at the fragrance wall to pouring your candle. Beginners are exactly who these classes are for.
Can I bring wine to the candle class?
Yes — the candle class is BYOB. Bring wine and snacks. We set out plates, cups, and single-use silverware, and there's a wine opener on site. (We don't provide water, so bring a drink you'll enjoy.)
When can I pick up my candle?
Your candle cures overnight at Boho Bungalow and is ready to pick up the day after your class. We'll hold it for one week, or ship it to you for a flat fee if you can't make it back in.
Do I need to book in advance, or can I walk in?
Walk-ins are welcome when there's space, but advance booking is strongly recommended — weekend classes fill up and seats can get tight. Booking ahead is the only way to guarantee your spot.
Is the candle class a good thing to do in Petaluma this weekend?
It's one of our favorite things to do in Petaluma on a weekend. Classes run Saturdays and Sundays at 1pm, and the shop sits right in walkable downtown Petaluma — so you can pour a candle, then make an afternoon of it nearby.
Can I come to the candle class on my own?
Absolutely. The candle class is solo-friendly and a relaxed, welcoming thing to do on your own — popular with solo travelers and locals alike. You'll have an instructor right there with you, and you don't need a plus-one to enjoy it.
Is the candle class good for a date night?
The candle class makes a great date night in Petaluma. It's hands-on, low-pressure, and BYOB — bring a bottle of wine and pour candles together for a couple of hours. A nicer plan than dinner-and-a-movie.
Can I book the candle class for a birthday or group?
Yes — the candle class is a popular birthday and celebration activity. For smaller groups, just book individual seats together. For groups of 6 or more, we recommend a private candle making party, where the whole bar is yours.
What's the cancellation policy?
Cancellations made at least 48 hours before your class are eligible for a full refund. Within 48 hours, you can reschedule through your confirmation email or contact the store for store credit.
Is there an age limit?
Boho Bungalow candle classes are designed for guests ages 15 and older.
Where should I park?
The Keller Street Garage is your best parking option — it's a short walk from the store in downtown Petaluma. Street parking is also available on Kentucky Street and the surrounding blocks.
