Wedding Water
Hi ladies!
We have decided that one of our wedding favors is gonna be personalized water bottles, chilled on ice, especially ready and handy for the ceremony. We are getting married in the middle of July, outside, and with good luck - we'll have nice warm summer weaather! I am sure people will appreciate the cold water to cool themselves down!
Here's my quesiton - besides the obvious - laminating the labels I make and wrapping them around the bottles - do you have any good tips on DIY water bottle labels?? Thanks!

Ditto times 100 CA2's post.
My DD was married outdoors in July. We had galvanized tubs of water for the guests in the ceremoy. I can't imagine ANYONE, A.N.Y.O.N.E. being happier that the labels had the bride and groom's names on them.
You're way overthinking this.
The wedding ndustry strikes again with ramping up something simple and basic into "WEDDING!!!!!"
The water is coming from Costco - 35 bottles in a case for just under $4. I'm making & laminating the labels myself.....I'm not spending even $50 on this project. And it's something that we think is a fun, cool different idea.....
I'll go to a different board, just thought this one would maybe have a couple of cool ideas. Jeesh!

I don't think you understand. The cost is not the point, it's your time and effort into something that will be thrown away. If you want a "cool idea" design something cute on the galvanized tubs. Or create a stick-in that says "to refresh our guests (or something cheesy)" That you can put on a stick and literally stick in to the ice in the tub. BUT, if you do go through with this lamination and time and effort, PLEASE come back and tell us how that worked out for you.
We will have to agree to disagree here..!
I am sure it will be great!
Maybe it's that we started planning our wedding over a year ago & we have the time and WANT to do this - I really don't see it as that big of a deal.
And yes, I will let you know how it worked for us.
The cheapest water we found was actually at CVS. They often have cases of 24 on sale for under $3.00.
Here's a blog post I wrote about making them.
