Out of town Bags

usually you give them to the guest when they get there or have them left in there room.

usually you put some local goodies, some water, snacks, remedy kit, ect.

I am making "Welcome Bags" for all of those who cruise with us!  I am so excited to be doing these for them!!  Along with the common things, I want to make like a "hangover rememdy" kit for our guests as well, but not too sure what that will consist of!  Ha!  Also, I found out that the cabins only have one outlet, so I'm trying to find like an extension cord or more like a miniture multiple plug cord.  Any suggestions?!?

I'm not really sure

I got the bags for about 1.50 apiece off of ebay. I went in on a group order for the pashimas so they were only like 1.75 a piece. The water safes and key chains I got from otc safes were 17 a dozen and key chains were like 5 a dozen I got the clear plastic bags off of ebay too and I have like 50 left if anyone is interested. Then they just got filled with dollar items from the sample bins and the target dollar bins. The mats I got from a BDW seller who was getting rid of them for a dollar a piece (they are going to be our invitation to our welcome bonfire. We also got like 60 bath puffs for 30.00 off ebay and the stickers and tags came from etsy. The hotel is getting us 25 bags of cookies pretzels and combos, a tulum guide and a mini bottle of tequila for $55.00 so we don't have to bring it. and we have water bottle labels and cozies for the water they provide down there. So not to much especially if you buy like 5 things every time you go to target or the drug store. I just kept a running tab on my phone.

oot or welcome bags are a great idea! i have recently started collecting items to put in our bags for our guests and i am also picking up gifts here and there for my bridesmaids as well. so much fun because you can really get creative with these!

Adlergray that is amazing and really inspiring!  You should turn it into an article showing how it can be done so well for not too much. All of the bags and pashimas of that quality I have seen are at least $10 a piece. Awesome job!

We provided welcome baskets for only our close family and friends. Some of them got into town early and we were busy doing prep stuff, so we included some custom designed games/puzzles (puzzles that related to the bride and groom and our families) to help them pass the time and get to know each other. The puzzles were such a hit, everyone had a blast - definitely one of our more worthwhile wedding expenses.

Here's a pic of our basket.

We left this and a packet of puzzles for each guest at their hotel. Some finished the puzzles right away (for a prize), and others finished them on the plane on the way home, etc.

Here's where we got the puzzles: LoveSmartDesign.etsy.com

We went with the playful style, but they will make them in any color/style/size to match your whole look. If you don't want to go with the custom, the generic are cheaper.
