Bon Secour, Alabama, is a charming coastal community known for its towering live oak trees draped in Spanish moss, graceful great blue herons, brown pelicans, playful bottlenose dolphins, and the unmistakable scent of salty Gulf air. The name Bon Secour comes from the French phrase meaning “safe harbor,” a fitting tribute to this tucked-away coastal gem along Alabama’s Fort Morgan Peninsula.

With deep roots in the shrimping and fishing industries, Bon Secour is a place where generations of families have built their lives around hard work, looking out for their neighbors, and standing by their word. These timeless values are at the heart of Bon Secour Candle Company.

Founded in 2016 in Bon Secour, Alabama, our company was built on a simple mission: to create quality products at reasonable prices while providing exceptional customer service. In 2019, Tara Gifford became the new owner, bringing her passion for handcrafted products and a continued commitment to the company’s coastal roots.

Today, we hand-pour our candles in small batches at our warehouse in Orange Beach, Alabama. From our soy candles to our wax melts, each product is thoughtfully crafted to bring warmth, comfort, and a little piece of the Alabama Gulf Coast into your home.

We’re proud to carry on the spirit of our coastal community through products made with care, quality, and a personal touch. Whether you’re a longtime customer or discovering us for the first time, we’re grateful to be part of your home and welcome your questions, feedback, and suggestions.

From our Gulf Coast home to yours, thank you for supporting Bon Secour Candle Company!
