I would add the tide pen... the one thats for stains on clothes, who knows maybe i'd spill hot chocolate on myself. I love all the different things that you are putting in it. If i was one of the OOT guests, I'd be sayin woo hoo!

Re: OOT Bags

wow - that is a gigantic OOT bag! i'll stay at your hotel i've been to two OOT weddings and received:

Bag 1
2 bottles of water
package of cheese & PB cracker sandwiches
oreos
potato chips
2 crystal lite to go sticks
100 calorie oreo cookies bag
note from bride and groom

Bag 2
2 bottles of water
tissues
granola bar
chocolate bar
mints
another 2 snacks (don't remember what)
note from bride and groom


Personally, if I were in the bridal party I would not want my number passed out to all the guests. That's just me. I'll be busy with wedding stuff. If you really want to include in case of emergency number, i'd put my parents and my FH's parents.

I'm not going crazy over the bags - will probably include: tissues, mints, gum, waters, pretzels, tylenol, m&m's, granola bar, old fashioned candy sticks (getting married at milleridge inn so it ties that old timer theme into it), and maybe another snack or two. i'm assuming the hotel is providing toiletries. i will also include a note with local activities (although i don't know what there is to do nearby besides the mall that would be of interest - who knows) and a thank you note as well.

Re: OOT Bags

That is a TON of stuff. How many bags are you going to be making up?

I would not give out the phone #s of your Bridal party in the bags. Maps and directions to your wedding events are good though.

Re: OOT Bags

We're probably only going to be having about 20 oot guests. It's not ending up costing an insane amount because I'm doing all of it wholesale ie. getting wholesale bottles and filling them myself with wholesale lotion, body wash, bubble bath, and bath salt. My fh thinks I'm insane that im DIYing all this stuff (plus menus, programs, etc) but I'm really artsy and actually love doing it. Strangely, I find it relaxing.

I actually wouldnt appreciate having my number given out if i were in the bp either so I think im gonna do my parents number. Thanks so much!!!
