Re: What is a wish bowl?

I'm not positive, but I think its like a fish bowl, where people write wishes for you and drop it in. (like we wish you a life full of happiness).
I think!!

Exactly what it is. We decorated ours to fit our snowflake theme. I then have little blue pieces of paper with a crazy edge. Instead of a guest book, I am doing a wish bowl. FH and I will look through the wishes together and use them in a scrap book with the table cameras.

its a VERY neat idea! we are doing the photo guest book, but if we didn't, we would be doing the wish bowl!!!
they sell this album that has like these little pieces of paper that fit right into the book - thats where you put everybody's 'wishes'

It's also known as the 'Martha Stewart Guest Book'...I have a picture but it's in a word document...I can email you if you FM your email address.
This is the saying:

'Marriage is much more than rings and tossed rice,
Grab a pen and some paper and write your wish or advice'.
In lieu of a guest book, we ask for well wishes and advice.
Please grab a pen and some paper…write what you wish.
Just remember to sign your name before putting it in the dish.
