I found little sand buckets at Target in the dollar bin when they were going out of season and got one for each room. I talked with my wedding coordinator and mailed a box down to the bahamas that was there when we arrived and then we put in a map of the resort with the wedding, reception and rehearsal dinner locations already marked and a brief itinerary on the other side. We threw in some hersheys kisses, a fan, goldfish cracker snack packs and I found a website that had really inexpensive luggage tags in cute tutrles, flip flops and a hawaiian shirt since we knew people had traveled and they were waiting at the front desk when people checked in. One lady totally had bucket envy and asked why she did not get one when she checked in and the guy explained they were for a wedding. For the families with 2 kids we did 2 buckets to avoid conflict. I am guessing a few of the buckets probably got left behind but they were $1 so no biggie.

I actually got married in a destination wedding on Grand Bahama Island 2 years ago and found this site when I was helping a friend possibly plan her destination wedding to the Dominican Republic and realized I could maybe help with other forum questions too. Sarah
