I want to do a wedding wishing bowl?

Question

Have people write there advice on marriage or happy thoughts of us? Where can I find a bowl?? What kind of paper? Need some creative help.

Answer 1

We are doing something like that, too.

Everybody has advice
for the bride and groom
everything from recipes
to spicing up the honeymoon.

Maybe a funny story
about your marriage too
and a few best wishes
all are sprinkled through.

So please use these cards
fill them in with fun
to share with (Bride and Groom)
advice from everyone.

We are using 3x5 index cards, the unlined kind. Each guest gets a bundle tied together with ribbon, they are headed:

1. Tips for the bride
2. Advice for the groom
3. Ideas to keep romance alive
4. How to makeup after a fight
5. Always remember.... (OR) Never Forget....
6. How to get along with the in-laws.
7. Blank

We're just using a decorated box that they can drop them into to keep it more private, nobody else's business what people write.

Then we'll put them all into a photo album type thing.

HTH
Have Fun!!

A big glass fish bowl would be best I think. then people can see all the notes going in. Go to a pet store, even some of the dollar stores have such things. Use nice recycled unbleached paper, with rough edges. Maybe you could also provide ribbon and encourage people to roll the thoughts up into little scrolls and tie with ribbon matching the wedding colour. I would just make a couple of sample ones to have already in the bowl. if they see the ribbon and pens etc there people will get the idea.

Answer 4

You can get a pretty vase, which would be easier to decorate with ribbon and flowers and such. I would get business card paper to just put something like "A Wedding Wish" on the top of it and just have people write it.

You can also make a wishing WELL and make it like a mini-well for them to throw the paper into like it were a real well. I've seen people do that with money as well. People throw cash in if the people don't have a registry or something.

Answer 5

You may also be able to find a wishing well looking card holder for the reception.

Whatever you decide to go with, (and I'm sure you know this but I have to give you my $.02!) I'd set it up at a separate table instructions or have someone there , either near the entrance or just ouside the entrance, to make sure everyone knows what to do. Personally, I'd go with pretty scalloped scrapbook paper and pens.

I'd never thought of this - I've seen it done at bridal showers though, GREAT IDEA!!!!

Answer 6

Use your Mom or Grand-mom's punch bowl then index cards. Have a variety of pens on hand and put up a 8x10 framed note explaining to your guests what it is. The use of an heirloom bowl will make it more "personal" and may inspire people to quote grandparents and bring up very special tributes and memories as well as advice. Good Luck!

Answer 7

Use a fish bowl, a punch bowl, a large candle holder,
make your own cards with index cards on the front and your bridal color in the back so everyone can write clearly. My Friend printed the engagement pic really light on lined paper and used it for the ppl to write on.

Answer 8

It depends how many people you are having. You can use a fishbowl or just a fancy decorative bowl in your wedding colors. You can use thick paper, like card stock in whatever colors you like or even printed paper. You can cut them into shapes or just squares, put ribbons on them, whatever you like and have time to do.

Answer 9

One of the most common questions spouses ask when confronting a marriage crisis is this: How can I save my marriage if my partner doesn't want to help find a solution? How do I succeed I am trying to save my marriage on my own? Learn here https://tr.im/kuH0p

It is a typical enough story: one partner leaves, the other stays. One remains 'in love', the other is uncertain. Whatever it is that has caused a couple to be apart, the one person who remains bears the prospect, fear, doubt, desire, hope of saving his or her marriage' alone.

Answer 10

get a fish bowl from petco or walmart. Cut up little pieces of printed paper from a craft store.
