We are putting our logos on our cups and that's it - the bags are the straw kind from Ailana Kai so no space there - we will put a tag with our logo that's easily removable!

But there are others who definitely won't. It's probably better to err on the side of caution and just go with something generic. thanks for posting this

Yeah it wasn't something I had though of either, until I started considering what other people will think of the hard work that goes into the OOT bags. I am definitely personalizing the little, more 'disposible' things, but I'm not personalizing the bigger, more lasting things (i.e., mug and bag). The girls on this site have such great ideas about how they do things. I'm going with removable personalization (i.e., tags) for the mugs (maybe tied on the handle) and the bag (tied to the strap).

I think I am in love with the Ailana Kai bags! I just received an email from them saying they have our amount in stock so I'm excited to order! Are you happy with them?

FI had them shipped to his office and he "forgot" to bring them home tonight..
The suspense is killing me - I had them shipped to FBIL in New York and he said they look great - I will certainly post pics when I get them!

girls, as promised here are pics...

i made this logo on powerpoint and used the font "sloop" b/c we have used that in a lot of our wedding projects.

it is teal b/c this pic is from my camera phone so you can't really see the color clearly. it says "Big Island, Hawaii" and then really small like a trademark it says "A&K September 5th, 2008"

if anyone wants the powerpoint file PM me your email address :)

Those are great! I love the font and it's such a good idea to make the "personalization" part like a trademark. Very cute!

How long did it take for shipping? I'm in Canada so I expect it'll take a bit longer. My fiance surprised me and just told me he ordered them! I'm so excited!
