Here is what we have sofar:
CD - with several songs with NY or LI in them 2 apples NY Deli Chips 5th Avenue Bar Pindar Wine
Help - need more ideas!

Re: Need Ideas - New York Theme Gift Baskets
The Classic I (heart) NY T-Shirts - they are so cheap to buy in Times Square.
Mini Cheesecakes
NYTimes or New York Magazine (or Time Out NY - so they can find things to do in the city)
Little Bag of peanuts off the street
all of these are NYC based, I am assuming you ar having a LI wedding. Are they going to be venturing into the city?

Re: Need Ideas - New York Theme Gift Baskets
yes it is a long island wedding, but it is over thanksgiving weekend so people have extra time to get into the city.

I've seen cookies decorated like the old school yellow cabs. Those are really cute.

Re: Need Ideas - New York Theme Gift Baskets
Macy's in the city has a ton of the I Love NY candy bars that I put in my OOT bags.
They also have a bunch of NY themed candy with cabs and the statue of liberty...very cute stuff.
You can add LIRR Train schedules or a bottle of LI wine.
