Michelle,
Of course~ including an itinerary is an excellent idea and certainly a must-have! Thanks for commenting!

I’ve been thinking about a welcome package for my guests, and this is a great list of ideas. I’ll definitely use at least a few! However, you left one important item off – an itinerary of all wedding-related events. With all the craze of their traveling to get to the wedding, it’s nice to have a reminder of when and where all events (rehearsal dinner, wedding, reception, day-after brunch) are happening throughout the weekend.

Wow. I would have liked being an out of town guest at your wedding! Princess Bride is one of my favs too! “have fun stoymin the castle…” “my name is Indigo Montoya…” ha!

For our baskets we included the following: Our favorite love movies (princess bride and father of the bride), our favorite soda (jones), some water (always helpful), yummy cookies and snacks (also helpful), and then included little fun things like mini gardens and such. And then we put it all in a picnic basket that they could use again.

Wow, thank you for the traveling guest blog. Although my wedding is a little ways away, the OOT guest bag was something i wanted to research more, but you just made it a lot easier!
