welcome bags

Hi there. I actually just got back last week from our wedding in Aruba -- congrats to you -- you will love it!

I contemplated Aruba Aloe as well but couldn't get over the prices. I wanted to have aloe and sunscreen in the bags, and even though that stuff is highly recommended I couldn't justify paying that much for 30 items when probably not all the guests would use it and they wouldn't even realize how much we spent on it. I got a few products from cheaptravelsizes.com, and you can order things individually. For our welcome bags, I bought small tubes of sunscreen and aloe as well as small packets of Advil and Tums (figured our guests we need those - lol).

Other things I included were a few customized things: koozies (these were a huge hit), disposable cameras, lip balms and a trinket case with mints, etc. inside. I also put a bag of chips and bottled water in there, as well as a welcome letter/program thanking our guests for attending - listing a calendar of events/contact infom and also introducing the wedding party.

I think that is it. Please let me know if you have any other questions and congrats again!
