Welcome Gifts for Wedding Guests

It is almost a given, that today's weddings gather together family and friends from far and wide. Whether a couple chooses to celebrate with a destination wedding weekend or selects a romantic and sentimental local closer to home, many of the invited guests will be required to travel a substantial distance to share in the event.

To acknowledge this extra effort and expense, many couples choose to greet weary-travelers with a thoughtful Welcome Gift. The contents and style of presentation varies greatly. Typically, the gifts relate to the theme of the wedding or the location. Locally produced products such as candies, fresh fruit along with maps and a wedding itinerary are often included. Be sure to attach phone numbers or room numbers in order to contact the hosts or to have any questions answered.

Other content suggestions might be:

A Pamper Basket — Include candles, chocolates and soothing bath products.	A Beach Bag — Fill with Bottled Water, Towels and Flip Flop Sandals.	A Special Take Out — Mounded with miniature floating candles, green tea and personalized fortune cookies.	A Sweet Treat — A colourful collection of homemade cookies, licorice and candies.

Many Hotels will be willing to have these welcome treats placed in each guest room in advance of their arrival or presented at time of check in.

With a little imagination, your guests will be amazed with your attention to detail. Take this opportunity to say "Thank You for Making the Journey" in a very special way.
