OOT bag info

This was SO helpful! Thanks ladies!

 

I was also thinking about ordering silicone bracelets (similar to the yellow LiveStrong ones) but with our names and wedding date. We're hoping our guests will wear them around the resort leading up to the wedding and will meet other guests in the process!

 

We're also thinking about making CD's with some of our favorite songs (and song's we'll play at the reception). You can buy labels and print something personal to stick on the top of the CD.

 

Love all the suggestions!!

I am giving one per couple - or in the case where we have two single friends sharing a room, two per room. I plan to carry all the stuff down and make the bags upon arrival (I'm going down 4 days in advance). I will put some in my suitcase and split up the rest between my mother, fiance, bridesmaids, etc. for easier travel.

 

Good luck! Let us know if you come up with any creative items to include!

I don't know if anyone has seen this, but Pringles has a website where you can design a label for a Pringles potato chip can, print it out and either tape or glue the label to a can of Pringles. I did them for my niece is her colors and added their names. Might be good to add as a snack to the OOT bags.

Wow the pringles label is a great idea for OOT bags, was it expensive?

it's pretty easy to do a monogram yourself- just buy the iron on transfer paper from Michaels.

no, actually it's free. Just go to the website:
Pringles Pop Art: Home
and it'll guide you through doing the design yourself. You print it out on your printer and tape or glue to your own Pringles can.

Thanks for all the information. I have one more questions about the bags. We currently have 28 rooms booked, some with couples, some with two singles, some with families, and some families have two rooms which they will put the adults in one and 18/19 yearr old teenagers in the other. I was planning on putting assorted meds, koozies with our name, date and a saying, floaties, playing cards/games etc. How would you handle the gift bags in this case?
