Care package for OOT guest and a update on my MOH drama

Hey ladies,

So I was thinking of putting together a care package for my OOT guest to try and get them excited about coming to the wedding. I'm kind of stuck on what to put in either a gable box or tote bag (can't decide on which one) but so far I was thinking on putting this in the care package:

2 bottles of water
an red apple (I'm from New York)
M&Ms
cookies
a bag of chips
Advil or Tylenol
A welcome letter and a map
"Things to do" sheet

Do you think I need to add more or is it fine the way it is???



Update on my MOH:

Last week my MOH bailed out on me clicky, Well ladies we're no longer friends. She's telling people that don't like none of my bridesmaids because they have stink a@# attitudes and if I have a problem that I should talk to her about it (Now I think she's going nuts because I honestly don't know what she's talking about) I wanted to reach out to her but I think she lost her mind and other people is telling me that she's jealous of me because I'm getting married. I really think she lost her mind....Seriously

  • Those sound like enough for the OOT guest bags/boxes.  I'm not doing OOT bags but those sound like enough to get your guests started.

    That really sucks about your MOH.  I think it will just show that she is being immature and something is clearly upsetting her more than your BM's attitudes.  I would just let it blow over now and it seems you want nothing to do with her anymore so I would just stop talking to her and about her.

  • The welcome bag sounds perfect!  I would put in two apples...

    About your MOH: It really stinks that she has the attitude she has.  I hope you do reach out to her.  Maybe it will settle some things.  But honestly I would wait until after the wedding...less drama the better within the next 30 days or so.  Or whatever you think is best.  but if it were me, it would be bugging the crap outta me and I would want answers today...

    Maybe she is jealous? Maybe she isn't...maybe she really did go crazy...who knows..but you possibly won't find out until you reach out to her...

    I would add one more thing to your bag-- tissue for the ceremony!

    I'm sorry about your MOH :( that is unbelievably selfish and unkind of her. It must hurt a lot since you were such good friends, and I wish you didn't have to go through that. I guess the best thing is just to carry on. You did your best with her and if she decides to have a change of heart she will mend the friendship.

  • Girl I got MOH drama too. Except my MOH is my sister in law. It's a really long drawn out story. To put it in a nut-shell, she is jealous of me getting some attention so if someone even mentions my wedding she changes the subject. She hasn't spoken to me in I don't know how long. And she hasn't spoken to my FI in months. The only reason I have given her the boot is because of my brother. He is caught in the middle. He doesn't want to make her mad and he doesn't want to make me mad. She isn't worth ruining my relationship with my brother. Jealously is an awful thing. It will make her miserable within herself. Let what she is doing reflect on her. You keep being an upstanding individual (trust me I know it's so hard when body slamming her is so much more appealing) but it will pay off. Like the good book says, it will heap a pile of coal on her head. Be nice. That's what I'm having to do. I say hey even if she shuns me. I smile and try to make conversation even if it's cold. It's gonna come back to bite her. You have to live with what you do and she has to live with what she does. This girl was like a my sister. We were best friends for 13 years. That's a long time to throw something in the trash over attention. But like you I can't reach out to her cause she will explode. It's tough. If my SIL doesn't calm down after the wedding I'm going to approach her.
