Welcome bags are a common practice for destination weddings. When asking your guests to travel and typically spend a little more than they would for a local wedding, a nice gesture is to have welcome bags waiting in your guests’ rooms to thank them upon arrival for making the journey to celebrate your love! A welcome bag has a couple of different items - that vary depending on the destination! Miniature sunscreen bottles and flip flops are great ideas for a warm, beach vacation whereas a branded beanie and glove warmers might be more suitable for a snowy mountain destination.
Now - regardless of destination, there are two staple items that should always be thrown in. The first is water or some sort of beverage. The second is a snack - savory or sweet…. both if you can swing it!
Our clients are always coming up with personal touches that make their welcome bags unique and endearing and we love working with them to come up with creative ideas.
Below are some of the ones we’ve loved most and some that have given us a bit of a laugh!
