Welcome Bags

[Dakwister]

For those of you who are giving out welcome bags, is each individual guest getting a bag or per family? What did your bags look like?

I gave couples 1 box. I gave singles 1 box. And then each child received 1 box.

For the couples, I doubled up on things like edibles and our water bottles. They got 1 of everything else.

For singles, they received 1 of everything.

For the children (we had 3) I made them their own boxes since they got things the adults did not (like plush and light-up spinner toys).

i think its personal preference

if you have 100+ then Id say "family" unless you can afford everyone

but if you have a small # then Id go with each person

have you thought about what your putting in them??

I am giving one per family. I will customize them depending on if they have kids or not.
Here is a pic:

I'm doing one per family or per single. Then families with kids (we only have 3 families out of 50 people with kids) they are getting an additional bag with stuff just for the kids.

Members of our bridal party and immediate family are getting these canvas bags with their initials:

The rest of the group are getting these gift bags with the labels that we printed off:

We had an intimate wedding, so it was only 20 people, but we passed out 1 bag per couple. We gave each couple really cute canvas beach bags with all kinds of snacks and bottled water. I made and painted picture frames with thank you notes in the frame, bath and body stuff, makeup, magazines for the guys, and the girls each got a pair of PINK underwear. They also each got a pair of flip flops. Lastly they all included an itenerary so that everyone knew where to be and at what time.

The ones for my parents and his parents had extra stuff in it like perfume and books, and the one for my maid of honor had a necklace and bracelet.

They took some time and effort, but everyone loved them and all the girls used the bags and the flip flops the whole trip, so they were worth it though.
