Help on OOT gift bags

Playing cards, water bottles, snacks, metrocard, mini champagne bottle, sewing kit, first aid kid, lint roller, mini hairspray- these are all things I included in our OOT bags and we got to use a whopping TWO of the maybe 16 I made? No one knows how to use a hotel block!

Well, there were like 3 rooms that were booked at our hotel but not under the block so I didn't know. BUT what really screwed me was we had TONS of OOT guests from Ireland/England staying at the in-laws, with us, and with BIL/FSIL. They were all supposed to stay at a hotel the night before the wedding and the night of the wedding (to make it easier for showering, getting ready, etc.) but they decided last minute not to stay at a hotel. So the OOT bags were basically a moot point then since they pretty much had all the comforts of home. Oh well! Such is life!
