Flip flops for girls - - what for guys?
I am planning on having a basket in the ladies bathroom full of flip flops in our wedding colors! That way everyone can dance the night away, with no worries. I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas for something I can put in the mens bathroom?
Thanks in advance!

But....I can only wear good ones (not the $1 from Old Navy) ones, and I would never, ever wear them with dressy clothing, and I would never wear unbroken in ones for hours to dance in. Just giving you my perspective on this.
Further, while your younger guests might wear flip flops, it's hardly a favor for Aunt Edna, who I'm guessing will not be wearing them. And.......what happens to the guest who MIGHT want them, but gets to the basket late, and there's no size left for her?
Have the flip flop basket if you must. But please don't consider it a favor. Because it's not. As for the men....I've got nothing.
I'd rethink this idea.
A beach wedding, maybe good for the gift bags. To dance in? ouch!
For guys? hmmm some spray cologne or breath mints? haha. not sure
[QUOTE]I think the flip flop idea is great. i always go out dancing in my flip flops (no joke) they are the most comfy things i have - i just can't make it through an entire night in high heels<strong>, so my friends and i always carry a pair of flip flops in our purses.</strong> better than getting more blisters. ouch!

And there exactly is my point. When did it become the bride and groom's responsibility to provide footwear for their guests? If I'm going somewhere where my feet will get too tired to be in heels all night, it's MY responsibility to make the necessary accommodations. I'm all for making your guests comfortable, but I just don't get that the B&G need to make sure that attire is taken care of as well.
That's like saying that it might be cool with the air conditioning, so I'm going to also have a basket of pashminas in varying colors lest the guests get chilly. Where exactly does personal responsibility come into play?

Providing blankets is actually pretty common for receptions where it might get chilly.

Cheap cologne?! please don't. Unless of course you are also willing to supply tissues and allergy pills as your additional "favor"
