I live in Aus - so no suggestions - BUT it is a very practical idea as many of your guests will probably be thinking along those lines knowing that you will be travelling back home.
If you can't source a wishing well to hire - then maybe you may have a creative relative/friend who can make something up for you without it costing too much money. That could be their gift to you.
It could be made from craft cardboard & painted- then have arificial flowers entwined over it. you might find this the more economical option
you would also need to put a slot in the top to drop the envelopes through.

I can't really help - this idea seems to be American/Australian and does not appear to be the sort of thing we Brits do. I have looked and can't find anybody hiring these things. Do any of your friends in the UK have a garden wishing well which they could lend you - you could then decorate it and make a wooden lid with a whole for the pressies to go through. You can buy wells at Garden Centres - do you like anyone enough to buy one, use it for your wedding, then give it to them as a keepsake reminder of your big day?

Perhaps a more modern approach is in order. Check out www.rainfallofenvelopes.com where you guests can politely purchase you a gift of money.

Sounds like a right pikey turn-out. A 'wishing well'... how common and classless. Yucchhhh!
