bathroom basket...filled with items guests might need such as safety pins, spray on deodorant, femanine products, mouthwash...slipper basket is filled with an assortment of chinese looking slippers in various colors and sizes for women who's feet need a break to wear.

I think a better question for me is what AM I doing?? I'm doing almost no 'extra' stuff, except OOT boxes because I have some people coming from far away and I want to thank them somehow, also I think I'll make menus for the tables. I'm not doing cry packs, 'we do' letters, bathroom baskets, programs, slipper baskets, etc.

Re: what are you NOT doing?

No :
huge BP
Garter toss
Bo-K toss
smushing of the cake in the face
cry packs
slippers
petal cones
funky line dances
aisle runner
table cameras
OOT bags

Also did not do STDs. That's what invitations are for, to let people know two months in advance that there will be a party.

NO SMUSHING OF THE CAKE IN THE FACE!!!!
I am so with you on that Susi!

I'm doing a lot of stuff but only because I want to, not because I think it's necessary.

Off the top of my head, the only things I know for sure we're not doing are:

- no crypacks
- no we do letters (bought 'love' and 'always' in solid silver/pewter instead, but I don't have to do anything to them, lol)
- no table cameras (but might do the CD's idea instead)
- no Venetian Hour (our reception ends at 1:30am as it is)

No cry packs
no FG or RB
No bachelor or bachelorette parties (joint party instead!)
No garter toss
No card box
Possibly no unity candle (I bought one, but now I'm not sure - maybe just the hand ceremony instead?)
No corsages for the mothers (they do not want them!)
No chocolate fountaing
No VH
No slippers (I'd appreciate it if people kept their shoes on during my wedding...)
No table cameras

Hmmm... I'm not sure what else...
