Packing Wedding Supplies

[mysticjade]

I think some of the girls who had large weddings gave out their OOT bags prior to the trip. That helps a lot...

 

I think I may have to do this as well, and I've gone to a couple DWs where the other couples gave us our bag before the trip too. Great idea!

Ziploc bags for liquids and bubble wrap for fragile stuff!!

I will def be trying the ziplock. I still have no clue what I'm doing for oot bag contents though so I will keep the packing in mind when getting supplies. I was thinking instead of water bottles ordering custom beer koozies as we are staying in Mexico and assume most will not drink the tap water anyway

I'll pay the extra excess baggage cost to take a dedicated suitcase with all my wedding supplies

I'm thinking we would also have to pay the extra for luggage allowance. Will try and give my family some stuff to carry as well.

I'd hand them out before hand, then it's all spread around and you won't be the people at the check-in counter frantically ripping things out of their bags and stuffing it in others haha.

these are some excellent tips

I need to figure out how much stuff I have first and then sort out how to pack it all! A second bag is only $20 so we will each probably bring one extra. And if we need more, I will get someone else on our flight to take one for us!

I would be willing to pay an extra bag, but with 2 kids we get 4 bags so should be enough (kids don't need a bag each) BUT.... we recently found out that Air Canada is upgrading us to first class and we will get 3 extra bags each, so we will be more than fine!   My friend is offering to sit with my kids back in regular class so I offered her more packing space in our bags too if she needs it.

 

But packing very carefully with fragile stuff.  I opted to buy nothing breakable but my maracas are fragile paint wise.

The entire Elite Plus section of the plane has been reserved by members of our wedding party on sunwing and this increases our baggage allowance permitted per guest. (It's their equivalent to first class) Between my kids and everyone else- we should more than cover the room needed to bring my decor!
