    FI wants to get his GMen cubans *eyeroll* , I am having a old hollywood vintage themed wedding so I am getting my girls a "Swag Bag" like they do at award shows for the celebrities. I've been slowly accumulating Bath n Body works, Victoria Secret, and Carol's Daughter products and I'm going to fill them in a cute personalized bag (not a tote, something cuter)

    I have been slowly buying things for a year and the dollar section at Michaels has done me well. I am getting the girls spa gift bags. I bought slippers, sleeping masks, bubble balls (the things you drop in the tub and they bubble), manicure sets, mini packs of note cards, photo holders, and I am going to see about getting lotion from Bath and Body Works,

    We are still working on the guys mostly because they vary so much in age. The youngest groomsman is 12 and then they jump to 20 - 25. I think I will get the 12 year old something seperate, but since the others are pretty much old enough to drink I was thinking of getting them Belgian beer and something else.

    I'm doing specialty drinks that we will pour in individuals bottles we got from hobby lobby and it will say "have one of us for a job well done". Ladies will also get makeup bag and personalized totes. The men will get personalized handkerchiefs. Money is a little tight right now.

    My girls will get monogram white bath robes with their names stitched in their favorite color. In addition the day before the wedding I'm taking them on a chartered catarman to The Baths in Virgin Gorda (we're having a destination wedding in the British Virgin Islands, the groom's hometown).
     
    The guys are getting engraved i-shuffles.
