No bathroom baskets?

Is it horrible if I don't have bathroom baskets? with 11 days left, it is just not a huge priority anymore. Is it something you expect to have as a guest?

Re: No bathroom baskets?

I don't expect a bathroom basket as a guest, and I don't think it will be a big deal if you don't have them. I'm not planning on doing them either, so you're not alone!

In a word...no. No time and honestly, as I guest, I never really noticed them.

When they're there I think they're a nice touch but honestly, before LIW, I always thought the HALL provided that stuff!!!!

Re: No bathroom baskets?

A bathroom basket isn't going to make or break your wedding. That being said, the small details do make a difference and all together they are noticed. If you have the energy, I would take the time to do it. If not, don't sweat it. Your wedding day isn't about if you have a bathroom basket or not

Re: No bathroom baskets?

I must say that befor this board I had never heard of bathroom baskets. If they present at any prior weddings I attended, I did not notice them.

Re: No bathroom baskets?

Instead of doing baskets you could just put a small bowl of mints instead. Its a nice touch and a lot less of a hassel.

Re: No bathroom baskets?

I definitely don't think they are a necessity, a nice touch yes, but not necessary

Re: No bathroom baskets?

Didn't have them at our wedding.... at all the weddings I have been too I don't think I ever used anything out of them, , they are a nice touch but I wouldn't worry about it!
