Where did you get the beach totes from? Any pics? Im having a hard time finding cute bags for the OTT bags..i want something colorful or maybe animal print perhaps :D

 

 

 

I live in Canada - and got some awesome fold up ones at Smart Set and Reitmans - both are women's clothing stores. They were only $2 each - they are large, durable and fold up nice and small. So check out some clothing stores...

We didn't bother - on a cruise ship, you don't need OOT bags or favours - there is so much on the ship

 

Our guests preferred a free drink

I thought about doing drink coupons, but not all of our guests drink. Then I thought most of our guests have never cruised before so putting an OOT Bag together for them was the best idea for us.

These boards are amazing!!! It is taking my stress level down a bit to be able to read about weddings that have happened already on the same ship.

 

Thanks so much!

Hi Ladies,

 

The coupon has been forwarded. Don't wait to long to start ordering because I'm not sure when this one expires. If it does before you get to use it, let me know and I'll send you the next one that I get. The best thing to do is multiple orders for just free stuff and pay for the shipping.

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

We were originally going to do OOT bags - but after thinking about it, I decided against it. Too much stuff to be responsible for on the wedding day. So, we decided to share our points to our sailing guest with a $50 onboard credit per stateroom, and we are hosting a cocktail party on the last night of the cruise as our way of saying thank you.

 

I did however get some favors - i have personalized some hershey miniatures with our names and wedding date on them, and we bought some "cruising" magnets from zazzle saying ":thank you for sharing our special day with us"....

The vista print coupons are easy to get. If you sign up on the vistaprint.com website, they will send you free coupons every week if not more frequently.

I too have thought about the OOT bags and favors, but after buying all the favors for 50 guest, i decided against the OOT bags.

For our guest we bought Wine Bottle stoppers, that are a sand globe. They have them on theknot.com but i managed to find a bulk option of them on ebay for cheaper!

We also got customized can coozies from orientaltrading.com they were $20/dozen i believe?

 

I also went all out for my bridesmaids gifts. I have 5 sailing bridesmaid so i went with the beach/sailing theme for their gifts. They include:

-Personalized beach tote (Ebay purchase, around $5-7 per bag in their favorite color)

-White flip flops (old navy 2 for 5)

-Personalized wet bikini bag (theknot.com got them onsale and with % off in their favorite color)

-tumbler cup with lid and straw ($5-7 from old navy, hobby lobby, and floral shops, they all have different unique ones)

-Hanging flat iron/storage space ($10 tjmax close to their favorite color)

-Including the seaside bottle stopper ($3-4)

I spent about $55 per girl but i hope they love them as much as i do!

:)

My oot bags went over great!!! The only thing in them that was a bust was the door magnets. They didn't stay. Even though the doors are metal, they have such heavy vinyl coating that the magnets just slid down the door....oh well, lesson learned!
