Did you know that wedding welcome bags, also known as hospitality bags, give your out-of-town wedding guests their first impression of your special weekend? With this in mind, we recommend offering welcome bags to your guests as they check in for your wedding weekend. It’s truly the best way to greet them second only to you being there!
Your welcome bags set the tone for the weekend—it’s all about the personal touches that show guests how much they’re appreciated. Years ago, welcome bags were not very important, but nowadays, your guests expect to receive them. And, your guests expect to get some unique swag in their bags, including healthy items! For these reasons, couples are going all-out with this special gesture of heart-felt hospitality.
Personalized Fun to Eat Fruit Swag For Welcome Bags
Your guests will appreciate receiving welcome bags (or baskets, totes, boxes) chock full of snacks and drinks that you’ve selected to make them feel right at home. Don’t forget to include:
A welcome note (remember to include your wedding hashtag!)
The weekend’s itinerary
Information about fun, local happenings
Your favorite shops, bars, and restaurants
Wedding experts say fresh fruit—specifically, monogrammed Fun to Eat Fruit—is one of the best items to include in your welcome bags. Moreover, fruit fits in with any theme you choose for your bags. For example, the welcome bags could reflect the location, season, wedding colors, the couple’s favorite snacks, etc.
Speaking of snacks, the experts at Instyle.com rate Fun to Eat Fruit one of the 10 things to put in your wedding welcome bags. And, here’s exactly what they say:
“Guests always appreciate fresh fruit….stick with apples and citrus as they will stand up in the bags for several days where bananas and stone fruits can get mushy and messy. For a bit of fun, you can even get monogrammed fruit! New Hampshire-based company Fun to Eat Fruit will print a personalized design on your apples—washed and ready to eat!”
