OOT Bags for Hotel guests

Are you doing them? What are you putting in them?

So far we have:
Bottles of water
Snack crackers cheese and peanut butter
Bag of chips
Rice crispy treats
Fun size candy bars

I wanted to find those travel packs of Tylenol or Advil but I can't find them anywhere. Anyone have any suggestions?

Maybe Costco? I'm going to look for them there.

I'm definitely doing it...I really think its a nice gesture for the guests who travel to my wedding. I know when I go to an event out of town, I always appreciate it.

Re: OOT Bags for Hotel guests

They are such a nice treat for your guests to walk in and see them, or have it handed to them upon check-in.
I am doing gable boxes with a custom welcome label, putting in:
water bottles, with our custom labels
chips,
crackers,
tissues for the day of the wedding
hard candies
little tylenol or advil packets

any other suggestions??

OMG!! You are the best! Now the question is can I pick them up in the store. I don't trust shipping with 8 days to go. Nothing like waiting until the last minute!

I think they do have them in store, but call a store directly and find out.

Re: OOT Bags for Hotel guests

Since I'm not staying at the hotel, can you save me a Rice Krispy treat????

minibride08 Posted: Mar 20, 2008 10:21 AM

Re: OOT Bags for Hotel guests

I am doing them - have the boxes just need to buy the goodies. One thing I am putting in is a toothbrush. I feel like FH always forgets his toothbrush when we stay over for 1 night at a hotel and we have to go out & buy one.... Other than that- all the goodies mentioned above sound great!!
