Welcome bags have long been considered a "must-have" for any wedding couple expecting lots of out-of-town guests. At
Weddings by StarDust, we still do quite a bit of them for our wedding planning clients, but another fun trend we've been seeing more is the turndown gift or the to-go favor. Brides and grooms will pay the hotel staff to place a small token of appreciation on the pillows of their wedding guests as a nice surprise when they return to their rooms. Some ideas: chocolates or an eye mask.
|
This is extra-cute with a note wishing your guests Sweet Dreams! |
|
Encourage your guests to sleep tight with a room darkening eye mask. |
Another twist on this is the to-go favor. Newlyweds enlist the valet team to place a little special something in their guests' cars or on the shuttles to hotels. Some ideas are a CD of special songs that will remind guests of the evening's celebration, a late-night snack or breakfast in a box or a hangover or recovery kit! Get creative - your imagination is the limit!
|
For a fun surprise, have the valet put the CD on to play when the guest gets in the car! |
|
What could be better than having breakfast at your guests' fingertips first thing the morning after?! |
|
Donuts make a great late-night snack or breakfast the next day. |
|
Mmmm...donuts and milk - the perfect marriage! |
|
Wedding reception recovery kit: vitamin water (plain water will do), Tylenol, mints, Alka-Seltzer, Vitamin C and anything else you can think of to make the morning after easier on your guests. |
