wishing well wedding?

I'm curious, what is a wishing well wedding?

What is a wishing well wedding?

What is common in your region? Ask your parents and such.

Here in IL it is considered rude to put Anything in the envelope about registries or money requests (wishing well)

We don't put registry info on the wedding invite. We don't put registry inserts in the envelope with the wedding invite.

Registry info goes in the bridal shower invite and at the wedding we carry a small bridal money purse to collect the cards or put out a bird cage or card box on the gift table. We don't advertise that we will have a card box. We don't use wishing wells in IL.

I wouldn't do or mention it.

A wishing well is usually a small item that is built or bought to look like a wishing well. Guests put their cards, with hopefully containing money in it.

If it says "wishing well" on an invite, it means the bride and groom want you to give them money, no gifts or registries.

In my area, it's common to put registry inserts in with wedding invites, but no one would ever put "wishing well" or something similar on the invite.

Don't do it. If you would like cash, just have your family and wedding party mention it when people ask about where you are registered. Have them say "The bride and groom are looking to buy a house/fix up their house/ etc and would prefer help in this endeavor".

Hmm yeah sounds like a card box! I wouldn't put that in my invite.

It's a little more blunt then a card box. It's essentially telling people to only bring money. This is sometimes, and I mean only sometimes, put in invites where it might be more common to receive gifts then money.

In that case, don't put it anywhere on the invite.

Tiffany ~ that is why my comment was to ask around. In some areas it might be common.

However, to many it is considered rude to ask for money - a gift is a Gift selected by the guest, and you are supposed to graciously accept what ever is given. If someone wants to ask You, your parents, or your wedding party what it is that you want, Then it is ok to tell them Money - because they asked.

I would not put unsolicited info about money (wishing well) in your invites. Let it be known word of mouth.

So let's see if I understand this don't put on invite. But it's ok to put a separate slipp in with invite. I was planning to put a letting in with invite telling about are unique wedding. And the high lights. Right or wrong?
