Make Your Wedding Day ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ The Perfect Day!!

♥     Isn’t that the whole idea?  It is your day, your decisions, your memories, YOUR WEDDING.  What is best for your individual circumstances?  Where do you want to get married? Wishing Well Weddings will come to where you want to be married.  We have done intimate home weddings as well as extravagant reception hall wedding ceremonies both inside and out any time of the year.  Whether large or small, OUR PRICE IS THE SAME!  No hidden “extras”. 

 Why settle for a justice of the peace officiant or a cold and sterile judge’s office when you can get married in a meaningful and memorable place?  The point is . . .  you can be married wherever you want!   You are only limited by your imagination and resources!  From romantic to practical or for the convenience of having your reception and ceremony all in one place.  That is what Wishing Well Weddings is all about.  

Why choose us?  First of all, Rev. Tab is a REAL ordained wedding minister–not  Universal Life internet credentials, which can be obtained by anyone!  We care . . . we really do.  There isn’t a wedding we do that is routine.  We include FREE ceremony coordination services, if needed.  Having a minister is great, but who helps you with the processional and all the last minute details?   

We try to make your BIG day as worry free as possible.  Just read a few of our REVIEWS from our couples and you will know why Wishing Well Weddings is a cut above the rest.  Below are several pages of some of the beautiful wedding ceremonies Rev.

“Greetings!

I wanted to take a moment on this day to thank you and your wife for marrying my husband and I a year ago. This year truly has been amazing for us. I apologize on not getting these photos to you sooner. We actually didn’t get them until about 5 months ago ourselves. We have been blessed to welcome our first child into this world in October so we’ve been pretty busy.

I hope you and your wife are doing well and will enjoy the holiday season. Thank you again and feel free to use these pictures on your website.

Best wishes,

Kristin & Michael
p.s. here’s a photo of our daughter Makenzie Ann “

Thank you ssssssssssooooooooooooooo much! 

This is why we do what we do! Here are some of the photos from that awesome day!

Our Two 12/12/12 weddings!

The first wedding was at 12:00 on 12/12/12 on the boardwalk in Port Huron near the bridges.  Our chilly couple shed a few icicle tears, but didn’t let the temperature effect their happiness.  Congratulations and may God’s Blessings be on you both! We also received an awesome email from the delighted couple a few days later:

“Rev Tab,
  Brian and myself would like to give you our heartfilled thanks for providing us with such a unique ceremony that fit our personalites to a “T”. The day weather wise was perfect,  the sun was out, the sounds of the water so perfect.  It was more than we could have hoped for. That day, at the same exact time we cried tears of happiness together.  We are excited to see pictures so we may look at them daily as a reminder of how beautiful our day was.

You are truly a God send.  Groom and Bride 12/12/12″

 

 

The second lovely couple decided that the best location for their small wedding was the assisted living home where she worked.  How touching  and selfless to share their most intimate day with those who would otherwise be unable to attend.  The contrast was a warm indoor with the fireplace and Christmas tree, but both weddings were amazingly beautiful!  Congratuations and thank you for allowing me to be a part of your 12/12/12 wedding!   

Great Lakes Salute!

This was quite a day!  Not only was the weather about as good as it gets, the setting for this wonderful bride and groom was the backyard of his parents.  The ambience of this wedding by the lake was all this couple could have hoped for . . . except for the anticipation of the possibility of a freighter gracing our presence.  It looked like we were going to be disappointed on that front, when all of a sudden, this majestic freighter appears out of nowhere it seemed JUST as this happy twosome had been pronounced husband and wife.  After the congratulatory presentation, as if on cue, this fine ship gave the Great Lakes Salute with it’s horn.  The guest cheered and the couple could not get over the perfect timing of this most unique and special gift.  We hope their life is filled with pleasant surprises from this day forth ~

Winter Wonderland

For some reason, winter isn’t the most popular time for weddings.  However, those that are brave enough to weather the weather, it can be a beautiful background especially overlooking a white coated golf course, which our couple chose at Sycamore Hills in Macomb.  It was a beautiful, sunny afternoon and the snow glistened over the green through the floor to ceiling windows creating a fairy tale appearance where these two great people committed their lives to each other.   Such a wonderful day–thanks for the memories!

This Is Why We Do What We Do! Thank YOU!

Her Man Is Back From Afghanistan!

What a great celebration this was!  This wonderful couple decided to seal their vows on 11/11/11, which was also Veteran’s Day.  This fine soldier had just returned from his third tour of duty and the wedding was a perfect welcome home!  All military personnel arrived at the wedding in full dress uniforms.  When this special pair took to the floor for their first dance, the groom presented his new bride with his camoflague vest, which she put on for this occassion.  We were so proud to be a part of this incredible day and hope and pray for a wonderful future together for them.

Blending of the Old and New

 

The groom’s background is Jewish, the bride’s Christian. 

 They chose to have a Christian ceremony, but wanted to include some of the Jewish traditions: 

Chuppah

The wedding ceremony takes place under the chuppah (canopy), a symbol of the home that the new couple will build together. It is open on all sides, just as Abraham and Sarah had their tent open all sides to welcome people in unconditional hospitality.

Breaking the Glass

A glass is now placed on the floor, and the chatan shatters it with his foot. This serves as an expression of sadness at the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, and identifies the couple with the spiritual and national destiny of the Jewish people. A Jew, even at the moment of greatest rejoicing, is mindful of the Psalmist’s injunction to “set Jerusalem above my highest joy.”

The incorporation of these made this sacred ritual even more so and all the families were happy with the ceremony.  This couple plans to make a trip to Israel as part of an excavation project this winter.  That makes this entire journey come full circle.  We pray for peace and protection and great memories for this special couple that chose to share their day with us.  Congratualtions and “Mazel Tov!”
