    I am getting married in salem.. and I am hoping for a Salem themed bag since we are doing NOTHING else salem themed. So I am getting maps of the local attractions (house of 7 gables, witch museum)... witch chocolate or cookies and something else salem related.

    We are also throwing in bottles of water, a note thanking guests for coming and inviting them to brunch, tissues and maybe one or two other small things.

    As far as the bottles of water and tissues- we MAY do custom labels which I will likely get on etsy but I plan to buy the water and small tissue packets at like BJs or Costco.

    As for the Salem themed... I am asking my venue to help with that!

    I plan on putting the basics:
    a few bottles of water
    some granola bars
    packs of gum/mints
    deck of cards
    may bake some cookies
    a homemade pamphlet with local restaurants and directions
    take-out menus
    area attractions
    MBTA schedule (train into Boston)
    Maybe some local flavor: cape Cod potato chips, necco wafers
    and of course a welcome letter.

    Plan on buying the snacks and water in bulk at BJs....haven't decided on the packaging....either some cute gift boxes or reusable bags I found with the Red Sox and Patriots logos on it.
