Re: OOT Bags
I haven't done mine yet, but for my brother's wedding they put in North Fork Potato Chips, 2 bottles of water, some advil, and a cookie with a name from a Long Island town (i can't remember the name of it). They also put in a list of activities that people could do while they were here and another set of directions to the church/reception hall.

OOH-- I like the Hershey bar idea... I did that for something for work and they came out great. If you're doing them yourself, you can get the bars at BJs, silver or gold wrapping paper at Party City, and I made the wrappers on photoshop and had them printed at Kinko's on shiny paper. Thanks!

I will also put a note about the weekend and how they can get around, directons to the service/reception place and information about shuttles (IF we have them) and brunch the next morning.
Hope this helps for you.

I looked into them and I'm still considering getting some. They're pretty expensive, so I'm not sure if I want to do them or not. I went to party city to check out some of the colors and I have to say, I'm not totally crazy about what some of the colors look like.
I did just get a coupon for bed bath and beyond for 20% off my whole purchase, so I think I'll check out the beauty aisle for the toiletry type stuff (and the stuff for the bathroom baskets!) and use the coupon!! I love saving money!!
