WISHING WELL, gift suggestion or note on gifts WORDING

It can be awkward, asking your guests to give you a gift of money as your wedding gift, instead of a traditional wrapped wedding gift. But, feel assured it is becoming the norm to do this, especially as many couples already live together and have a houseful of things and don’t feel the need for anymore house hold gifts.

I do find most guests do like to know what you may put the money towards, I suppose they don’t want to feel as though their paying for your wedding or their seat at your wedding. So let them know if your doing a honeymoon fund, future travels or even towards a big purchase like a house, piece of art etc…

WISHING WELL ETIQUETTE

What’s the correct way to do this?

It is not polite to write your wishing well directly on your invite, especially on the front of the invite, where you are inviting them. Try and put your Wishing Well, Gift Suggestion, Note on Gifts on a separate card. If budget is tight, pop it on the back and don’t forget to have a table set up at the reception, clearly marked where your guests can leave their money gift and to send your guests a thank you card, after all it is still a gift.

To help, we’ve put together a list of Wishing Well wording for you. Some are cute Wishing well poems, some are funny poems, and some are just polite way of asking for money gifts. To receive these examples, get in touch with us via the contact form below.

Working with Lala and the girls was incredibly easy and stress free. They were professional and efficient; nothing was ever a bother. I can't thank them enough for making our lives a whole lot easier in our wedding planning journey.

Working with the Lala ladies was an absolute pleasure. Lala is an expert on all things stationery and is so bubbly and fun to be around. Besides being a design genius, Anna is an absolute gem and the most patient and understanding person I have ever had the pleasure of working with. And Kellie is a total legend for getting my wedding stationery ready a week before schedule.

My fiance and I had an idea of what we wanted initially for our invitations - something elegant, simplistic but still classic. With Lala's guidance and advice, we were able to land on something that perfectly matched what we were chasing and also our budget.

I was looking for a place that had a flair for creativity and the style I was after. So, when I found Lala on Instagram, it was a match! I was so happy. Then we met her and we knew she was our person. My mum and I had ideas of what we wanted and Lala got it straightaway and brought to life a creation that surpassed our dream.

We chose Lala right after meeting her. We first saw her work on Instagram as she was tagged in a lot of weddings with other premium suppliers. We knew we were going to see the best in Perth and the moment we met Lala and her team we felt so welcomed. We had ideas of “things” and colours that we wanted to incorporate and she brought them to life.  We felt Lala was genuinely invested in making sure  everything was perfect for us.

Lala instantly got what we wanted. She made suggestions about what would work best to make our invitation look and feel luxurious, fun, and special. The whole process was so easy! We actually felt like good friends of Lala, Anna and Kelly at the end of our time working with them. Nothing was impossible working with these ladies. They were so responsive.

We did have some ideas of what we liked, but once we met with Lala, she gave us other ideas and samples to help create our vision. Lala is so thorough and pays attention to every detail – from the font, sizing, whether the letters are bolded or not, nothing is too much for her and the team. They take pride in the small details.
