Re: Hangover Kits
How many BM and GM do you have? Honestly I would DIY, and this is coming from someone that did very little DIY for my wedding. I just think you'll end up paying way more than necessary for a pre-packaged "hangover kit".

Follow my book blog: Panda Reads
Follow me on Goodreads: my read shelf:
Here's a seller on etsy that does kits though and they're under $10 each.

I think especially for GM and BM its a cute idea.... its not saying hey I know youre going to be hammered but it will make them laugh and when they wake up the next morning after and icredibly long day, partying and dancing who wouldnt mind digging around for tylenol and water or whatever else is in there.

*who wouldnt mind NOT having to dig around
i also agree with PPs, it'd probably be alot cheaper to DIY this one.
this website sells the kits - not one that I'm going to get - but it has ideas for what's inside.....http://www.hangoverkit.com/the-kit.htm
We're just doing them for the guests staying at the hotel we have blocked out, since they are basically all of our younger friends or the people who wanted to drink (and obviously not drive home) so they reserved a room. I'm having the hotel deliver them to the rooms during the reception so guests will come back to them at the end of the night. We are including a powerade, tylenol, pepto bismol, saltines, and gum.
I've looked into everything and it's definitely cheaper to DIY, I've just bought little bags to put all of it in and the single, individually wrapped doses of the tylenol and pepto. It ends up at about $1.50 each bag.
I think its a cute idea to put in OOT bags or if you are having a DW. The name alone "Hangover Kit" is sure to get a chuckle out of most people, I guess with the exception of those who have no sense of humor.
But honestly when you look at the contents of them (asprin, alka seltzer, pepto, etc.) these may come in handy for the sober who may just be suffereing from a simple headache or upset stomach from traveling and/or something they ate. Nothing worse than taking a trip or being on vaction and having to hunt down a simple neccessity that you may have forgetten to pack or thought you would not need. It's just a little extra something your guest would appreciate. If they don't need it "now", its something they would use "later"
In each bag, she included: water, 7-UP, saltine crackers, tylenol, Tums, and Pepto-Bismal. It helped guests other than those who may have had a few too many; it helped to settle queasy stomachs from travelling, and guests who indulged in too many "forbidden foods" as well.
These items will go in a large zip lock bag and I created labels out of card stock that you literally fold over the top of the bag and staple and they are Caribbean themed. Those bags will go inside a canvas tote (for the beach) with a beach towel for each guests.
I don't see anything wrong with a hangover bag--I too would suggest making it yourself though!
[QUOTE]i don't like the idea of giving hangover kits as a favor (i've seen that idea before - who woud give their grandma a hangover kit...seriously?!) but i kinda think its cute for your WP - assuming they drink. i also agree with PPs, it'd probably be alot cheaper to DIY this one.
