Bride & Groom Wedding Wishing Pot with Cards*
Insert a message of hope and congratulations to the Bride & Groom with the Wedding Wishing Pot with Cards.
Wedding wish jars are a thoughtful way of recording advice and well wishes for the bride and groom. Use this adorable wish jar as a guest book alternative, as a bridal party activity, or as an extra special wedding gift for the newlyweds. The ceramic jar has a fine glossed finish, comes decorated with baby blue polka dots, and reads "Wishes for the Bride and Groom" on the front.
The Bride & Groom Wedding Wishing Pot comes with 50 wish cards included, so there is nothing else to print or buy before the day. Make your reception a memorable one by asking everyone to take up a wish card and write a few words for the couple. It is a fun activity that livens up the occasion, and it works hardest in the gap between the meal and the dancing, when guests are looking for a reason to move around the room.
What the couple keeps afterwards is better than a page of signatures. A signature is a name. A wish card is a sentence somebody thought about, from a grandmother, from a college roommate, from the friend who introduced you. The couple preserves the wishing pot as a blissful reminder from the day the knots were tied, and it comes down off the shelf again on anniversaries, when the two of you sit and read what people actually wrote.
Family and friends may also present the wedding wishing pot as a special wedding gift to the couple themselves, filled and ready for the reception. It works wonders for Asian and Arabian Nights themed occasions in general, where a glossed ceramic jar in baby blue polka dot sits easily among lanterns, silks and warm light. A creative mind will find many other uses: place a couple of pots at strategic locations around the room and tuck in treats for guests to chew on.
It sits naturally alongside other wishing pieces. A Lucky Chinese Wishing Pot makes a useful addition for an Asian wedding, and personalized plantable wishing beans carry the same idea outside, where a wish is written down and then grown.
Choose your quantity, one pot for the guest book table and a second for the bar where people gather anyway, and give your guests something to write on that the two of you will still be reading years from now.

- A song they want to hear at the anniversary party, so you have a playlist waiting.
- A wish for the first year, sealed to be read on the first anniversary.
Which one should I choose
For collecting what guests want to say, the choice is between a book everyone signs, a jar everyone writes into, and a piece that sends the wish home with the guest.
| Bride & Groom Wedding Wishing Pot with Cards | Choose it when you want 50 separate handwritten messages and a ceramic keepsake, and when a queue at one book would slow the room down. |
|---|---|
| A traditional wedding guest book | Choose it when you want every name in one bound volume and a single page per table. |
| Lucky Chinese Wishing Pot | Choose it when the reception is Asian themed and you want the wishing tradition in a piece styled for that room. |
| Personalized plantable wishing beans | Choose them when each guest should take their own wish away and grow it rather than leave it behind. |
If you want the couple to keep what people wrote, not just who came, the Bride & Groom Wedding Wishing Pot with Cards is the one to set out.
Ordering the Bride & Groom Wedding Wishing Pot with Cards for weddings and events
For a wedding or a party, count the wish cards rather than the tables: each Bride & Groom Wedding Wishing Pot comes with 50 wish cards, so a reception of a hundred guests needs two pots, and a second pot on the bar also stops a queue forming at the entrance table. There is no minimum order. The jar carries no personalized text field, so there is no name list to email after ordering. A logo order is handled as a custom order: send a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected], where a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be done. Standard production is 5–10 business days, rush 3–5 and expedite 1–3, plus 2–5 days US shipping; for weddings order 3–6 months ahead. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
