My OOT Bags~ the big hits and the things that weren't used

[latricej919]

Thanks for posting. I need as many good ideas as I can get!

So I'm wondering if anyone has ordered OOT tote bags from Oriental Trading...I am interested in the large tote hibiscus ones, but are we able to specify what colour we want or do we just get an assortment? And is it the same with the Large bright tote bags at OT as well? Thanks!

I ordered those hibiscus bags, and also the smaller coin purses (we're doing a cruise wedding and the room key/cards will fit perfectly). They just send you a random assortment so I don't think you can order by color. You could always call and ask though.

I think its just a random assortment of 6 colors - 2 per color. I ordered 2 packs.

Hello, two quick things..

If your wedding is in Mexico, some scented candles might be nice....I am using the glade ones and peeling off their sticker and placing my own. I just used clear address labels.

Two..with the meds...see if you can find someone that works at a hospital. Those people generally get great prices on generic meds.

Thanks ladies...I kinda thought it would be an assortment. Back to the drawing board!

Great thread! Did you guys give favors/gifts at the wedding in addition to the OOT bags?

hey I love the idea of the Drinks for Dummies books. Where did you find them?

Some people do both, others only do one or the other, I'm doing both but my favors will just be hand fans and DIY starfish magnets, so they are both inexpensive and then more fun things will be in the bags.

I ordered two packs of the hibiscus 10 days ago, they are on their way. I think it's a random assortment of colors. I'll let you know once the package is here. I think at the price, you don't get to customize... the random colors are fine by me, I did ot want my guests to all have the same ones !
