We are doing one bag per couple and 1 bag for each single. I need to find different bags for the single guys!

Ahhhh I see.....Maybe I am getting these OOT bags mixed up with favors? Are they the same thing? I'm such a dork LOL!

Well, our seating cards are shells that hold the placecards and after you can use as a picture frame, that's our favor. Then, we are going to put something personalized in the OOT bag also (koozie or mints? Not too sure yet) along with the other items. So I would say that they are kind of favors also.

An oot (out of town) bag is like an additional thing, some people do them as well as favors and give the favors at the wedding and oot bags in the rooms as a little welcome favor as a thank you for coming to stay for the wedding. Some people only give favors and some only give oot bags, but it is a personal choice based on finances and logistics of getting the oot bags to the locations etc. But the purpose of them is to thank the guest for traveling to your wedding and staying over somewhere.

per couple. Be sure to add a guy thing. I added atomic travel clocks!

We are also doing 1 per couple and then 1 for singles and kids. Unisex items are ideal (less things to buy) and we were even thinking of just buying the one time only use bags with a printed sticker label to put on them. Koozies, currency counter, agenda for the trip and a MX trinket to buy there. Not to make it too much of an expense, but something personable and nice.
