Wishing on a Wishing Tree














Gone are the days of sign in books sitting on a podium waiting for a signature..well not really a lot of people still rock the wedding guest book, its classic! However there seems to be a new trend sweeping the wedding world. The wishing tree. Yes the wishing tree is a modern and romantic way to get the guests involved on your wedding day...even I used this in my wedding! The idea behind it is for people to write a personal note, thought or wish they have for the happy couple and hang it on the tree. This way instead of just a signature you can get advice and best wishes from your friends and family..pretty cool huh? Not to mention that the tree ads another decorative element to your room. Considering you may drop anywhere from $20 to $50 on an average sign in book...the elements you would need for a tree are really not super expensive.. nice paper with string to hang it with, a vase or pot...some branches, spray painted if you wish or just stop by Michael's and get creative. Otherwise most event rental places have wishing trees you can rent for the night. The notes can be put in a memory book or put in a cool design in a frame after the wedding. Not to mention it is really fun when you get a chance to read all the notes the next day! Wishing on a wishing tree is in the spotlight!!
