2012 Brides - Roll Call!

They are great bags especially for a buck!! How are you deciding on how many bags to buy? I think this is why I havent bought any because I have no idea how many people are actually coming. And then do you buy per room or per person? So far I know of maybe 14 people BUT only 6 have booked...I just dont want to buy too many or not enough. Are you guys just winging it basically?

These are cute but for 10 bucks a piece is a bit steep. You can probably get plain canvas bags cheaper & iron on an image.

I sent out 52 invites & I doubt they will all go! LOL! I actually hope they all dont go!

Good point about the bags being seasonal. I think I will check out some stores this weekend to see what I can find. Thanks!

We are doing 1 bag per couple and then 1 bag for any singles.  We haven't bought our bags yet but probably will soon, we sent out 100 invites (yes our families are crazy!) but only expect anything from 30-60 people (it could be more but I think that's a good high end guess!) so we will probably get 3 dozen bags and we should be covered! If we have extra I am sure we can sell them on here or find a use for them.  We are doing $1 or $2 bags so I am not too too worried!

np at all. i know my GF went to 2 different stores to get them all, maybe give them a call and see what they have before driving all over the place lol

I thought you just insert it like a photo but use insert attachment (paper clip). I could be wrong though since I don't have any templates to insert! haha!
