Everyone's been asking for this information, so here you go.
I googled "wedding wishing tree" and found some great pictures for inspiration.
Supplies:
2 Large Branches (either from your backyard, like I used or you can order Manzanita branches online)
1 can white flat spray paint
2 strands of white mini lights (order from www.save-on-crafts.com)
1 Large Urn or Vase filled with rocks to hold branches up
Embelishments (I used strands of silver beads)
Steps:
1. Cut down your branches and strip the leaves off.
2. If you are using several branches, you'll need to tie them together (I used zip ties)
3. Spray the branches
4. After the paint is dry, put them down inside the urn or vase and get them to stand up using rocks
5. String Lights
6. Layer the embelishments
Voila! You have a prayer tree for your event.
Here's the before:
And the after:

I love this very much. It reminds me of an article I did a couple of years ago for Romantic Homes called The Tree of Love for Valentines. For 14 days (Feb 1 - 14) you take little scrolls and write out daily, what you are grateful for and roll the scrolls up and tie them to little branches that are decorated and on the 14th a special family dinner is made (or brunch) and read then they are read aloud.
Thanks for sharing!
