OOT guest box items (Updated with final product at end!)

It has been an INSANE weekend, but I feel like I've gotten a lot done We now have ALL the items for our OOT guest boxes and I had the Big Day timelines printed out at Kinkos. Yesterday, I put together all the little boxes with Tiffany M&Ms that are going in the OOT boxes. Now I just have to assemble all the boxes and wrap them in Tiffany blue wrapping paper

Thanks!!

The Tiffany M&Ms are from shop.mms.com -- it's pretty cool because you can create any kind of mix you want or have your names & date printed on them.

Yep, those are the Terra Blue chips from Jet Blue. Everyone knows I hate flying and Jet Blue is the only airline I really like, so I thought it would be funny to have them When I watch that little TV it makes me feel like I'm just sitting in my living room (rather than in the steel tin of death ). I originally ordered them from terrachips.com but they were delayed, so I ordered them from Pear Tree Specialities (pearspec.com) and they arrived really quickly.

The 2 big square things are actually spreadable cheese that does NOT need to be refrigerated! We looked everywhere for some kind of cheese that would stay well in the boxes. we ordered them from Imperial-foods.com and were really surprised at how big the cheese was -- they give you 4 different kinds: vegetable, camembert, brie, and havarti.

ETA: I know other brides have done the timeline in Publisher (melissandsean, yours looked great!! ) but I'm computer illiterate, so I just did it in Word. I have the template if anyone wants it (just FM me and I can email it to you).

Re: OOT guest box items (Updated with final product at end!)

Here's are pics of the OOT guest box all assembled What a pain in the a$$! I had to put Tiffany blue wrapping paper on all of these bad boys because I couldn't find a company that would sell me less than FIVE HUNDRED boxes in this color Thank goodness we only have 24!

I got the tags from a vendor on ebay (sweetxoxo) who was awesome to work with! I got my RD invites from her as well. Orchid24 recommended her -- what a great find!
