I ordered 100 with a 206 person wedding and all of them were gone before the main course! People see them and will take two pairs I think for whoever at home they think will like them. But they were a huge hit and well worth it. Ordered the assorted pack if you're going through mysisterusa.com

I have about 80 women - I ordered 50 slippers. I hope I don't run out!

OK, so here's my stupid question for the night...whats the purpose of slipper baskets? I hear about them but Im not sure what they're for.

Re: slipper baskets?(past brides help!)

I ordered 7 dozen pairs making sure I had at least 2 size 11s and 2 size 5s. I ordered black silver and gold as we had a formal wedding and figured those were more than likely going to be the most popular regular shoe color choices. In order to avoid people taking more than one pair - and yes people do this - I had a member of the waitstaff circulate with the baskets. People really appreciated the ability to take off their shoes. I for one, cannot wear heels due to high arches. I wore flats for my own wedding. I now have at least half a dozen pairs from the various weddings I went to last year - very much appreciated. I got mine at mysisterusa.com too.
