I have no idea what my deal is, but I am weirdly obsessed with Out-of-Town/Welcome bags. Sometimes as I lay in bed, I fantasize about the day in which I walk into the local warehouse store and buy all of the yummy snacks to fill said bags. Strange? Most likely.
Anyhow, whatever it is, there's something truly exciting in knowing that my guests will be welcomed by a bag of goodies at their hotel room. I know I hate getting into a hotel room, thirsty and hungry from traveling, only to be met by $10 bottles of water and candy bars. It'll be a nice treat for them and another way for us to express our supreme gratitude!
Plenty of lovely bees have put their own twist on the welcome bags/boxes and I intend to follow suit! About a year ago (yes, a year ago), in keeping with the skyline theme from our Save-the-Dates, I purchased customized welcome bags from Favors You Keep. With my new found DIY confidence, I know that I could have perhaps attempted these myself for a fraction of the cost—but, honestly, I'm glad I let someone else take on the task, because I love what I ended up with!
In terms of what will actually go in the bag—I've got a few ideas. Mostly some bag staples like water, snacks, and gum. However, I do want to include a few items to help drive home that SF feel—for example, I'd like to include a few Ghirardelli chocolate squares, an SF map and travel guide, and maybe a couple of pre-postaged postcards.
And last, but certainly not least, I intend to tie one of our little mini Moo welcome cards onto the handles.

EErgh! Its even starting to frustrate me that these need to be kept to pretty much the last minute! The bags are awesome, and the goodies inside will undoubtedly be even better.
