Out-of-town guests make a special effort to attend your wedding — the travel time, distance and expense is not always easy. Here are some items that will make them feel more welcome:
- Information about your wedding and other events planned for the big weekend — Is there a gathering after your Rehearsal Dinner or a brunch the day after? Include contact phone numbers, addresses and directions/maps.
- A local snack — Salsa, pecans or barbeque sauce, to name a few for my fellow Texans. Check out TexasFood.com for more Texas-made treats.
- A bottle of water — Every guest on the go should be properly hydrated. Add more wedding flair by personalizing the label.
- What to do in the area — A museum exhibit, movie theater, your favorite restaurant, etc. Dallas locals look here for a day-by-day event calendar.
Package these up in a bag that matches your wedding theme — like the ones shown here — Then drop the bags off with your hotel concierge. Your guests will love you for it!
Thanks for the post. Since our wedding is in St. Augustine FL we should probably do our homework and have some ideas for our guests.
Forwarding to my fiance.
I love the custom labels for the gift bags. So cute!
Ben – You could do sunscreen, lip balm, information on the closest and best beaches… package in a beach tote instead of a paper gift bag — so many options — even a custom beach towel with your wedding date http://www.cottonfruit.com/ This is a fun project for a girls (or guys) night in and something you can cross off your list early.
Thanks Allison!
