"Wishing Well" Wedding Reception: growing in popularity with the Brides is the Wishing Well theme. In lieu of gifts (for the couple who have everything already), the bride and groom set up a wishing well to receive monetary gifts placed in envelopes. The money can be used to purchase larger home items or be used for the honeymoon. Check with the rental companies, crafts stores and hobby shops to rent a Wishing Well. These can be decorated with silk flowers and other items. Creative Wishing Wells can also be made/built by creative people! Be sure to add a lock for safety-sake. Add an embossed Victorian Folding fan on your Wishing Well! Favors
