History of The Wishing Well

The concept of a wishing well has been around for centuries. It is a tradition that a wish would be granted, especially if a coin was thrown into the water at the same time.

The belief appears to have been born out of the many different folklore stories about how gods or saints gave water to the people in order for them to flourish and this was simply a way of paying them back. Other stories state that your wish would only come true if you would drop a coin into the well after you placed a wish, and the coin landed face up at the bottom of the well.

The Wedding Wishing Well has established itself as a traditional way to collect envelopes, checks, and other monetary gifts at weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, christenings, engagements almost any gathering you have.

Similar to a traditional wishing well, the gift giver is wishing for good luck, prosperity, and a success. The Wedding Wishing Well works well in today's day and age where more and more brides and grooms may already have enough home furnishing and would be better able to utilise a gift card or other monetary gifts in place of traditional appliances and gifts.
