Anyone who is planning to do them... what are you putting everything in (and where are you getting them from?) and what are you putting in it??
We were thinking bottles of water cans of soda chips cookies cheese and crackers muffins deck of cards
not sure what else... I love the 'happy meal' boxes to put them in but I'm not sure...
Thought this would be a good way to get and share ideas!!

Re: Spinoff to OOT baskets
Bunny had a cute idea w/ Chap stick (i may do this too since we have a winter wedding).. shes doing the ones w/ SPF in them since she has a summer wedding
also, LI visitors beaureau has some booklets about Long Island... like things to do, history, places to shop.
those little 2-packs of tylenol (for the day after )
maybe a CD of some songs from the wedding (for the drive home)
if i think of more (as that's whats on my to do list right now too).. ill post.
im trying to keep mine reasonable though,,, like you could do wine and all that stuff,,, but we're on a budget, so there will be no wine for our guests

Re: Spinoff to OOT baskets
we are also doing a small basket of strawberries picked from local farms in each room - in season in june!
I am also thinking about (in addition to suggestions above):
- travel size shampoo/body wash/conditioner
- small homemade olive oil soaps from a friend of ours
- juice boxes for kids
- wine for the immediate families and bridal party (not everyone)

Re: Spinoff to OOT baskets
Oh yes......great ideas. And in January Bath & Body Works has the awesome after Xmas sale and there is a ton of great stuff (shower gels, lotions, bags, etc.) not just for the OOT bags but also for BM gifts and such. Also you could get some cute ideas for Bridal showers too.
Have Fun. I really can't wait to see some of the great OOT preparations. I know they are gonna be fabulous!

The bag is for out of town guests, who stay in the hotel after the wedding.
These ideas are great!! Keep them coming!
