karma: 1 | My HHI Welcome Packet and OOT Bags
Here are my OOT bags that I gave to my guests! They loved them. I think the biggest hit was the Tylenol. (The DH questioned me buying meds to put in there because he thought people would bring their own!) By the end of the week, my younger guests were telling me how they only had 2 more tylenol left (out of 8!)
My bridesmaid bags are from Lands End ( Zip Top Canvas Tote Bags from Lands' End). They are the medium size with the zip top. A lady from Etsy (seller: JonahBonah) cut out their intials for me and I ironed them on. I also got my bridesmaid a matching wallet from an Etsy seller (BungleBearDesigns). My bridal party loved them and carried it all over HHI! Yeah!
My other OOT bags are from Oriental Trading ( Nautical Tote Bags). They were smaller than I thought they were going to be, but they were cute so I stuck with them.
Here is the Welcome Packet that I put together. I have to Thank Melba for the template and Morgan for her "Meet the Guests" page. Everyone loved them! I printed them out, double sided and had them bound at Office Depot. It was pricey, but I was working against the clock so I was willing to pay anything to call it a day! I created them for Hilton Head Island but they can easily be converted to the destination of your choice!
Enjoy and please PM me if you have any questions!

I love that you set out the timelines seperately for the guys and the girls. It makes so much sense!
