Meghan Markle's brand marks her eighth wedding anniversary with a wedding-inspired candle tribute
The candle is named after the couple's 19 May wedding date and retails for $64 on the 'As Ever' website
Meghan Markle's lifestyle brand As Ever paid tribute to her eighth wedding anniversary with Prince Harry by spotlighting one of its most personally meaningful products — a candle inspired by the couple's 2018 royal wedding day.
The anniversary tribute
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex celebrated their eighth anniversary on 19 May, and As Ever, marked the occasion with an Instagram post promoting its Signature Candle No. 519.
The carousel opened with an iconic aerial photograph of Harry, 41, and Meghan, 44, riding through Windsor in a carriage following their wedding, before concluding with an image of the candle burning beside a bouquet of white flowers.
"The feeling of warm sunshine and blue skies, surrounded by love and laughter. Celebrating 8 years of our founder @meghan and Prince Harry's love story," the brand captioned the post.
About the candle
The candle's name is a direct tribute to the couple's wedding date — 19 May — with "519" serving as shorthand for the occasion. It was first launched as part of As ever's inaugural holiday collection in October 2025 and currently retails for $64.
The product features notes of Moroccan mint, cardamom, and tea leaves, and sits alongside other As ever candles inspired by Meghan's 4 August birthday and the birthdays of their children, Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, four.
Lit at home on the anniversary
Meghan appeared to light the Signature Candle No. 519 during the couple's own anniversary celebrations. In footage shared to her Instagram Stories on 19 May, Harry carried out a cake similar to the one served at their 2018 royal wedding reception, as Archie and Lilibet serenaded their parents with "Happy anniversary Mama and Papa."
A white candle from the As ever line could be seen glowing on a table inside their California home. Harry also gifted Meghan a bronze sculpture of two cuddling penguins — a nod to the couple's penguin costumes at their secret 2017 engagement party and the traditional bronze gift marking eight years of marriage.
Meghan's vision for As ever
The Duchess of Sussex unveiled As ever as a curated line of shelf-stable food products in the spring of 2025. The brand has since expanded to include wines, candles, bookmarks, and a flower collaboration with High Camp Supply.
Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE in March 2025, Meghan was clear about how she sees herself within the venture. "I see myself as an entrepreneur and a female founder, and if the brand ends up influential, then that's great," she said.
Meghan also marked the anniversary on Instagram by sharing two carousels of never-before-seen photographs from their wedding day at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle, each captioned simply: "Eight years ago today…"
