OOT bag contents - **Master List of Possible Items**

[Billandstina]

I see a lot of people creating their own mini bags, like hangover kits, or first aid kits etc.  They are making them with clear bags, and then stapling their own template to the top.  Where can you get the clear bags?

I just used clear ziplock sandwich bags without the ziplock logo on them.

This is a great thread for ideas for Welcome bags!! Here is my welcome bag.  I got the bags from the dollar store along with the drink cups.  I bought waterproof labels for the cups.  I also made a hangover helper kit which had advil, tums, pepto, emergence C packets and mints.  I also enclosed a welcome letter, sunblock, aloe, bug off and a first aid kit.  They were a huge hit and everyone loved them!!!!!!!!

Drink cups! Great idea. Was your wedding at the Barcelo Riviera Maya? If so did your guest have any problem filling them at the bar?

I love it. I might steal this ;-)
