The Wishing Tree

Browsing through some creative ways to let the guests leave their well wishes and good lucks at a wedding, I really liked the “wishing tree”. More “guest book” ideas will be popping up soon, but I thought I’d throw these in here since they fit the rustic theme I so badly want.

The idea is to have branches or a bare miniature tree (a Charlie Brown Christmas Tree if you will) set up at a table with blank tags that the guests can fill out and write their messages to the bride and groom on.

Some twists:
  •  You can make the tags in all different patterns that match your wedding colors/theme
  •  The tags could be cut out to match your theme (flower, bird, candy, star shapes, etc.)
  •  The tree can be used as reception décor (I am all about hitting two birds with one stone)
  •  The tree can be outfitted in any way you choose… spray paint it gold or silver or your wedding colors, add glitter, or even make it a Christmas theme and have the guests sign ornaments instead of tags (provided you are getting married in December), etc.

  2. I was curious if you ever considered changing the page
    layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content
    so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot
    of text for only having 1 or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?

  4. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to get setup? I'm assuming having a blog like
    yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very web savvy so I'm not 100% sure. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

  5. Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this website. It's simple, yet effective.

    A lot of times it's very difficult to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say that you've done a
    very good job with this. In addition, the blog loads very quick for
    me on Chrome. Superb Blog!
