Wedding gift bags are most often given to out-of-town guests who are staying at a hotel for your wedding. The gift bag is either left in their hotel room - perhaps on the bed or on the desk - so that it's the first thing they see when they arrive; or it's given to them by the front desk staff when they first check in to the hotel. In essence, the gift bags contain "welcome" gifts for guests from the wedding couple.
Different couples choose to do different things with their wedding gifts bags. A gift bag can be filled with bottled water, snacks for the room, and brochures with things to do in and around town for those who may not be familiar with the area. This is especially helpful for traveling guests who - in between wedding activities - may want to explore a city/town they have never before visited.
Some couples also include basic toiletries in their wedding gift bags such as extra toothbrushes, toothpaste, mints, shower gel, lotions, shampoo/conditioner - along with the snacks and water.
For more elaborate wedding gift bags you may choose to include a bottle of wine or champagne and two glasses, chocolates, cheese and crackers, and maybe even a CD of your favorite songs for guests to enjoy in the room.
No matter how you choose to put together your wedding gift bags, it is always important to include a note from you welcoming your guests to town and thanking them for making the trip for your special day. Wedding gift bags can make your guests feel welcomed and appreciated; they are a wonderful way to start the wedding festivities.
