i ran across some great priced buckets yesterday at Wal Mart of all places! and it got me thinking that i need to be looking for larger buckets (sand moving size) to hold all of our hotel guests' welcome goodies. here are some images of wedding welcome basket ideas...
here are some of my initial ideas of what will go into our "welcome buckets":
- Water bottle per person (it's hot in CA in august)
- Some type of Balance or Cliff bars (a good snack/ meal replacement when people are on the go)... gotta be heathy
- some of our favorite candies (tootsie pops, sour patch,
- maybe some lindt truffles (i LOVE them)
- maybe a starbucks card?? who doesn't love them??
- trail mix or some type of snack nuts
- crackers
- packet of tissues
- sunscreen
- playing cards
- local area map of Newport and Laguna Beach
- local are guides
- a wedding weekend timeline ( so guests know where to be and when)
- a contact list of important phone numbers
- a letter of thanks from the FI and I
here's a site where you can find mini/individual sized items that would be great in welcome gifts... MINIMUS
basically the point of the baskets is to inform guests of important details, as well as provide them with goodies to snack on or spoil themselves with!
the plan will be to drop them off at the hotel front desk the day before everyone gets in, that way the items will be in their rooms before they get in their rooms!
anyone planning to do the same for their out of towners?... any really original ideas to include for guests in the baskets? i'd love something a little more original!
