Thread: wishing well

Welcome Cossi nice piece a wishing well for a wedding now there is an idea

Pic's 2 & 5 looks more like a lectern with a trap door for a quick squirt

Hi Cossi

Totally agree with you. $100 for hiring a wishing well is, well, a luxury, especially when it's just pine etc.

I too, made my own wishing well, though I used mdf painted gold.

Yours, however, is beautiful.

So, do you think you could get $150 hire a day for yours ?

cheers

cheers guys,
my fiance has already sparked to that idea wendy, but i don't think i trust people considering the effort which went into it! It is unbeleivable what they are charging hey. it must cost them $20 for wood and they hire them out for $100 - $150 a day!
I always wanted it to be special so i might lend it out ot some close mates who are getting married soon. but i think we might display it somewhere, it will prob make for a good saving jar...... considering that we are now building and broke
cheers for the comments

Cossi LOML's relo's nearly all Yogoslav and at one wedding of a 2nd cousin they pinned money to her dress I guess this is the same sort of thing after just 1 hr she had over $4k pinned o it all the males had to dance and stick their money on her.They also stole her shoe which they raffled off to which the groom had to meet the figure a further $6k.

Love the well

i have been to about 5 weddings in the last year and all of them have had wishing wells. I guess it is due to the change of culture these days as it is rare for people to not have lived together before they get married. Thus we already have everything we need, so if the guests would like to partisipate, they put a money donation into the well, thus allowing for the total money to be spent on bigger gifts than multiple tosters and blenders (which we already have) such as new couches ect.... it would be nice to get that much but somehow i don't think so.... a supprise would always be nice but

Ahh Memories, sweet wedding memories I remember how wonderful it was to be able to buy a few things we really needed with the gifts in the Wishing Well.

Being able to perhaps use the Well for your friends' weddings is a fantastic idea!! And an even better idea to use it as a coin box for yourselves as well.

cheers

Nice well, good luck on the big day and for the rest of your lives. Welcome to the Bulletin Board.

Steve,
I guess it must be age but I have never seen a wishing well at a wedding and have no idea as to it's function. That aside your's is well done. Like you say why pay $100 to hire a pine one.

Regards
John

Looks good Cossi, we had a couple at our wedding little one for cards and a big one for the dry ice.

Looks great wish that I had one at my wedding
