   In ours we put a map of the surrounding area/stores in the mall/etc. We also put directions to the church from the hotel. We put tic tacs, Tylenol, candy and I think pretzels and coloring books and crayons for the kids. Also I made up a poem (that I thought was really cute haha) and stapled that to the front of the bags.…

   Oooh and ditto pp's at this point you're so close you don't need the added stress of a new last minute project. If you're really set on doing them, I'd just make up a few gift bags with some water bottles, a map, and some munchies, and maybe a local product like locally made lotions or soaps or jams or candy or something…

   Gotta agree with Drama-- skip them, lol. Too much stress with your wedding so close unless you really have time to kill and want to do something! I agree with the PPs- map of the area, local activities, restaurants, etc. Maybe some chocolate, tissues, an itinerary, water, a thank you note..

   We did personalized water bottles, pain reliever packets, granola bars, crackers, cookies, and personalized door hangers. We didn't put any local info there because everyone at the wedding was either from CT or used to live there and knew the area.

    You can do anything. Usually people do lists of thigns to do/places to see, nearby restaurant recommendations, maybe a few goodies (bottled water, candy or snacks, a local treat), things like that. Honestly, if you haven't done them yet, I wouldn't bother. You don't need any added stress 3 days before the wedding!
