I'm searching for candlelighter dresses for my wedding. Are candlelighter dresses usually just bridesmaid dresses? And if my bridesmaid dresses are full length, do my candlelighter dresses need to be as well? Also, I think I may have a Jr Bridesmaid, is she dressed in the same thing as the bridesmaids (same color, style, etc)?

The candle lighters should wear dresses that coordinate with those worn by the bridesmaids, but they do not need to match exactly. Be certain that the persons chosen to light the candles are tall enough to reach the top-most candles in the tallest candelabra!
Junior bridesmaids, aged eight to fifteen, wear dresses that are the same color, and may also be the same style as the other bridesmaids. A younger looking dress and possibly lower-heeled shoes are appropriate if the junior maid is closer to eight than to fifteen. She will lead the processional of bridal attendants.
Hope this helps you! Best wishes on your wedding!

You mean candlelight. It's an off-white color. Most wedding dresses have the option of coming in this color, or something similiar. Make sure you don't get a pure white veil, though, or it will stand out.
The junior bridesmaid is usually dressed the same as the bridesmaids. Perhaps she could be in a shorter dress.
The lengths of the maid's dresses should be the same length as you or shorter. You can wear a full-length and they can wear tea-length. You can all wear tea-length. But you shouldn't wear tea-length while they wear full-length.
Whoops, sorry, I misunderstood your question about the candlelight. My bad!
