Destination welcome bag idea's
I need some creative help. My fiance and I are getting married in Mexico in September. I'm preparing welcome bags but we feel like there isnt enough inside. We want to get our guests something special since they are traveling so far and spending so much $ to attend out wedding. So far we have:
Flasks
Customized water bottles
Chap stick
Sun screen
Aloe
Fan
Post card
personalized note
Any other creative idea's?? I feel like everything in the bag is so cheap and generic....

Something else for them to do in Mexico, personalised for each person? Like magazine or novels for hem to enjoy on the beach, or guidebooks to the region in Mexico where you'll be staying.
And snacks such as a granola bar or trail mix still might be a good idea. You know what your wedding time line is but there may be an extended period of time between meals around your wedding, or your bridal party may be so busy getting ready the day of that they might not eat enough. It wouldnt hurt to have something small like that in the bags just in case.
mints/gum/breathe savers of some sort
Also aspirin/ibuprofren/tylenol of some sort
small picture frame with a note about it being for their favorite photo of themselves from the trip ( I assume most guests will be there for at least a day other than your wedding so they can play some) Oriental trading company has a set of 12 beach themed magnet frames for $7.
pen and stamps to go with the post card
I work in the promo industry here in Houston - popular travel gifts beyond what you mentioned are flip flops, or aviator sunglasses (I have a supplier for these, and they are very affordable & unisex!). These are especially good because they are items that guests may forget to bring.
