I have to admit, I'm somewhat surprised that every chapter seems to do this a little differently!
At my chapter (we called it a Candlelight, btw), the president started the candle, announcing that it would go around the first time for friendship/sisterhood. When it came back to her, she would announce that the second time was for being lavaliered, then the third time for getting pinned, and the fourth time, for being engaged. I don't know if the secret marriage clause is still in the ADPi policy, but that's why we didn't have the marriage round, and heaven forbid we would have one for *anything* else!!!
We sang/hummed a variety of the slow/romantic songs, starting with "Pass It On" (for the sisterhood round), then a mix of "Remember Your ADPi Girl", "I Love The Pin", "When You Love An Alpha Delta" and more that I can't remember right now.
Oh, the candle was always a white taper, with blue & white ribbons attached, and the honoree always got a white rosebud with blue & white ribbons after she was revealed.
