I need ideas on what to put in welcome bags for everyone

Las Vegas Convention center is already sending me maps and brouchures, bags etc...but i need some personally touches to add: this is what i have so far

A bloody mary set in a small cellophane bag (travel size bottle of vodka, small can of tomato juice, salt and pepper packets, and tiny tabasco bottles i saw at world market)

a roll of pennies saying "try your luck on us at the penny slot machine"

water bottles with personalized labels

sunscreen ( it hink i should be able to get these one clearence soon, travel size)

personalized chap stick

Itinerary

Instant coffee

snacks (small bags of chips or candy)

Personalized poker chips (if i get can get a good price)

Personalized coffee mugs filled with candies or snacks if i can get them at a good price

Las vegas postcards

vegas coupons

All these are not definites, just ideas, I need to narrow it down.


What ideas do you have?

    I'm hijacking your post a bit because I am making welcome bags as well and I'm stuck on what the actual bag should be.


    Sunscreen is on the dollar tree website

    Out of curiosity what would they do with the personalized poker chips?

    You've got a pretty good list!


    Here's mine for the beach in FL:

    Customized shot glass with a mini bottle

    An orange

    Bottle of water with custom label
    Bag of popcorn

    Maps of the area

    chapstick

    Deck of plaing cards
    pack of mini wet wipes

    I want a beach towel but we shall see!

    Tey wouldn't do nothin with them lol! Check this idea out..... Personalized paddle fans!! U can make them yourself and use them as the program at the ceremony. There are templates all over the Internet. Now I'm stuck on putting them in the bags or making them the programs. I hadn't given the programs much thought cuz I figured it would be to complicated to get them in everyone's seat prior to the wedding because they have so many weddings thruout thru out the day. But then I domt want people to forget them in their room and be hot at the ceremony. I'm going to check out dollar trees website now

    that sounds like a nice idea!!!

    my guest won't be getting welcome bags but I have SEVERAL other secret little goodies lined up for them!

    And I love the roll of pennies idea! Do you have a link or website where you ordered the roll stuffers? That would be a great little addition to some of my little extra's I have planned! :))

    LOL u silly.....i changed my mind. I found some paperfans online, 12 for under $4. that way i know people wont forget their programs in their room, and its less work for me to do. itll probably be cheaper to buy the fans than to buy all the stuff needed to make them
