Is anyone doing OOT bags and favors?

We are doing OOT bags, and as mmontgo suggested already we are donating to the Canadain Cancer Society in honour of our friend who died recently of Cancer. He would have been in the wedding party so we wanted to make mention of him.

For favors we are doing Personalized CDs of "our songs" for everyone, cigars for men, and scented candles for the women. I'm another shopper and money spender! ;o)

I was wondering the same regarding giving both to guests. Great ideas everyone!

I have been looking everywhere for "Spanish for Dummies" books. Please please please tell me where you found them! Are they the mini-books?

We are doing both as well. We are doing our OOT bags with first aid kits, margarita packets, travel candles, mini sewing kits, pens, a welcome letter and a personalized cup.

 

We are doing the same bag for guests staying at timeshares but we are taking out a personalized cup and are adding sodas, water and beer.

 

For our favors, I am going to have our WC put palm tree boxes filled with custom M&M's on the plates for dinner - at our reception we are having a cigar roller and have custom matches to hand out with cigars at the cigar table.

they were at target in the $1 section but they don't have them anymore. they were exclusive to target. you might be able to get some on ebay if not just make your own little list of spanish phrases. There is posts on here of ones other girls have made.

New to the group and wondering how you get all of these items to the resort with you? Are you brining an extra suitcase for wedding stuff?

[DanielleNDerek]

I'm handing out my bags before we leave. But a lot of girls fill an extra suitcase with the stuff.

Extra suitcase for me. Plus, I have gotten my sisters to bring an extra suitcase with them to fill up with all of my stuff.

I am actually planning on giving slices of fruit cake as the wedding favors and then the OOT bags.

 

Im just happy my mother is baking all the cake!

I'm spreading the love and am having my BM's bring stuff with them.
