When Chi Omegas from my chapter get married, they have their last candle past sometime on their wedding day. Usually, the sister getting married gets in a circle with all the Chi Omegas that are present at the wedding. Some girls do it before walking down the aisle, some do it at the reception. I have even heard of the bride wanting to do the candle pass right before she says "I do" during the actual ceremony. During the candle pass, all the sisters start singing "Shades" (a Chi O song)and the candle goes around the circle and on the 4th time, the bride blows it out. Usually the candle is from the sister closest to you and it is usually decorated in our colors: cardinal and straw.
