Welcome Gifts for traveling guests?

So, another one of those things not on TK's to do list, so I just thought of it yesterday less than a week before the wedding..... We don't have many guests coming in from out of town and all of them have family here they are staying with - no hotel guests. So my question is, what would be an appropriate welcome gift when their hosts will have plenty of food and drink for them, etc? And something I can get relatively easily at a local store (no spare time to have anything shipped)? My original thought was 'a few of our favorite things' - a mini bourbon from him, a mini red wine from me, and then..... I'm lost.

Never mind! Candied bourbon pecans - we're in TX and pecans are a big thing here, and since two of our travelers are kids and one isn't a drinker, this should suit everybody. Simple, should only take a couple hours to make and package, ... whew.

We are doing welcome bags, and placing them in the rooms of guests who are staying at our hotels that we blocked. Inside the bags, we are putting a bottle of wine from a local vineyard, a booklet about the town they are staying in and things to do there, a block of cheese, a sleeve of crackers, a can of orange juice, and other small goodies.
