My mom and I have had a lot of fun planning out the welcome packages to leave at the front desk of the two hotels. One of the items that is going in the bags that we’re most excited about is the Shrimp and Grits mix from Gullah Gourmet.
We wanted to include something to represent all of the places that I’ve lived and represents the different areas that the guests are traveling from. We’re including tiny bottles of Tabasco for Louisiana and a yummy, spicy trailmix that is made is Texas.
We’re including weekend itineraries for everyone that will be customized for the different events that they all need to attend; the bridesmaid luncheon, the dessert and champagne party, the golf outing, the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, the farewell brunch, and of course the wedding ceremony and reception.
Is anyone else doing anything to welcome their guests? Any suggestions for other items to include in the bags besides water and candy?
The Reese’s eggs are the highlight of my spring season. They are better than regular Reese’s cups because of the adorable yellow packaging, of course, but also because they’re bigger and can hold so much more peanut butter. I know I’m not the only one that feels this way. It’s such a shame that my bridal portraits are this weekend and I can’t indulge in an entire bag for a while. I’m tempted to buy a bag, freeze them, and take them on the honeymoon.
