out of town bags

all+that+sparkles

What did/will you put in your out of town bags?

I need some more ideas/options.
So far here's what I have...
Bottled water, that's a given
A pack of red vines -my fav
A snack bag of cheez-its- his fav
A pair of dice/casino played deck of cards - we met in vegas when we lived there
and I'd like to add a souvenir from our wedding location in Long Beach, ca...just not sure what yet

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

local treats? Things that made in your state or city. Cookies. Muffins or granola bars for a breakfast item. I think you need more food in it ;-9 Also soda or mini wine bottles are nice.

Thank you note/card

 

I think that's about it. I know it's a bit much but I'm having a smaller wedding and already got the favors on a pretty good sale so I might as well give it out.

I'm making door hanger signs and possibly a magnet to add to that list. When I think Long Beach I think sand and surf, even if its not a beach wedding. Sunglasses maybe?

I am doing 2 cookies, a map and a thank you note.

We are doing small bottles of a locally distilled whiskey, glass bottles of cokes, 2 rocks glasses, bottles of water, chocolates, hang over kits and a guide to the city. Also will have a thank you note in it. Our bags are kind of fancy but 95% of the bags are going to guests who have done international travel to be with us so it's nice to say thanks for that.

How much should I spend per bag?  Any ideas?
