What To Include:

• Drinks (water, soda, wine, champagne, lemonade, ice tea)
• Hot Beverages (Keurig K-Cup® Pods make a great addition since most hotels now have Keurig® brewers in each of their rooms or in the lobby!)
• Sweet Snack (chocolate, cookie, dessert, candy)
• Salty Snack (chips, crackers, cheese, beef jerky)
• Local Item (include something special from the locale of your wedding!)
• Usable Item (candle, soap, lip balm, sunscreen, bug spray)
• Info + Maps (location, tourist and wedding information)

I’ve heard many brides say that building hotel welcome gifts can feel overwhelming and/or too expensive – but they don’t have to be. My #1 tip is to shop in bulk if you’re making a lot and don’t include items that you can’t buy in bulk. Between Costco, Etsy, Keurig and Amazon – you’ll be covered.

Beach Welcome Gift

You all know that I have a love affair with the beach, so of course I had to make a beach themed hotel welcome gift! Here I’ve included:

• Drink: waters, you’ve got to stay hydrated on the beach
• Hot Beverage: Green Mountain Coffee® Dark Magic Coffee and Swiss Miss® Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa
• Sweet Snack: saltwater taffy
• Salty Snack: sea salt + vinegar chips
• Local Item: handmade salt scrub
• Usable Item: sunscreen – ideal for the beach!

See how easy that was to break down by theme + items!

Personalize Your Favorite Brew

The past 4 out of 5 hotels I’ve stayed in this year have all had single serve Keurig® brewers… and I wish I would have known because I would have brought my favorite brew with me! As the bride and groom, when you’re recommending hotels for your guests to stay in, if they have Keurig® brewers – you absolutely must include your favorite K-Cup® pods in your welcome gift! Keurig brewers offer endless possibilities for quality coffee, tea, hot cocoa and more, just the way you like it, at the touch of a button. For instance, there are more than 50 distinct varieties of Green Mountain Coffee® beverages, each infused with the top 10% of coffee beans in the world!

Take the personalization a step further (which you know I love) and include his + hers favorite brews – use a Sharpie to mark whose is whose. Your guests will absolutely love it!

Modern Welcome Gift

In thinking of all you modern couples out there who like simple things that look clean + classic, I went the wine route with this idea:

• Drink: cute mini-wine in a can
• Hot Beverage: Green Mountain Coffee® Organic Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Coffee and Celestial Seasonings® English Breakfast Tea
• Sweet Snack: yogurt covered raisins
• Salty Snack: parmesan crisps
• Local Item: soy candle
• Usable Item: handmade lip balm

***In all these boxes I repackaged bulk supplies into smaller servings and made my own labels… which I highly recommend!

Boho Welcome Gift

Organic, bohemian weddings are a huge trend right now and so of course I had to embrace that style too!

• Drink: lemonade
• Hot Beverage: Green Mountain Coffee® Breakfast Blend Coffee and Green Mountain Coffee® Organic Sumatra Aceh Coffee
• Sweet Snack: cookie
• Salty Snack: date crackers
• Local Item: jam
• Usable Item: soap

I hope that you’ve been inspired to take your hotel welcome gift to the next level and really make it personal!
