The Sea Love Story
From One Candle… to Lighting Up Lives Across the Country
Sea Love began with a simple idea: that fragrance has the power to transport us — to memory, to emotion, to peace. For founder Stacy, candles were more than ambiance. They were comfort. Connection. A way to carve serenity into the chaos of everyday life.
Stacy began hand-pouring candles at home not just out of creativity, but out of care. Her husband, Barry, had long struggled with asthma, and many store-bought candles only made it worse. Determined to create something better, Stacy set out on a mission to craft candles using clean, non-toxic ingredients — products designed to soothe, not disrupt — and sparked the beginning of Sea Love.
As her passion grew, so did her love for scent blending — it became her favorite part of the process. She realized the magic wasn’t just in the final product, but in the experience of creating it. Stacy dreamed of sharing that joy with others, and so Sea Love evolved into more than a candle company. It became a space intentionally designed to inspire — a place where communities could gather, connect, and discover the power of fragrance as a personal and creative expression.
The Meaning Behind the Name
The name Sea Love is a tribute to the peace and wonder that only the sea can bring — a feeling of grounding, openness, and calm that washes over you when you stand at the shore and breathe it all in. For Stacy and Barry, the ocean has always been a place of renewal and inspiration — where ideas are born, and hearts are quieted.
It’s that very feeling they wanted to bottle up and bring into every home: the slow, steady rhythm of the waves, the salt-kissed air, the golden glow of the setting sun — captured in scent, in atmosphere, in experience. Sea Love isn’t just a name. It’s a reminder to come back to yourself. To breathe deeply. To live intentionally.
Grounded in Care
From day one, Sea Love has been rooted in clean ingredients, sustainable practices, and intentional design. We believe fragrance should elevate — not overpower — and that the most meaningful scent experiences are gentle, personal, and thoughtfully crafted. Every product is made with premium, non-toxic fragrance and always infused with love.
We don’t just scent spaces. We tell stories through fragrance — stories of nature, of nostalgia, of the sea and the seasons.
A Business with Heart
Stacy and Barry’s story is one of resilience, passion, and a shared dream that blossomed beyond their wildest expectations. As word spread and more people fell in love with Sea Love, the brand naturally expanded. What once filled shelves in a small Maine boutique now fills homes across the country.
Today, Sea Love is a thriving franchise family with locations nationwide — each one locally owned, each one carrying the same heart and care that started it all. From solo scent-blending experiences to date nights, girls’ nights out, and team-building events, our boutiques have become places where people reconnect — to themselves, to each other, and to the joy of creating something meaningful and memorable.
The Sea Love Spirit
We believe in the beauty of small moments. In the power of fragrance to calm, to inspire, to transport. We believe in putting people first — our customers, our franchisees, our team. And we believe that when you pour your heart into something, it lights up everything around it.
That’s the Sea Love way.
