NYC theme gift bagsHere are some pics of the adorable gift bags that the ever-talented Elana @ Melangerie created for our Bowery wedding client. As there were guests coming to New York from all over the country for the wedding, the bride wanted to incorporate all-things NYC into the bags: Dean & Deluca, Dylan’s Candy Bar, and of course Central Park. As you can see, it was done beautifully. Lastly, the colors and patterns incorporated were taken from her oh-so gorgeous Mr Boddington invitations. Loves. ...

A Wrinkle in Your Gift BagsWhen you’re picking out the bag for your Welcome Bags, keep in mind that paper bags will get smashed during transport. Moving gift bags from one location to another is a lot of work and they will inevitably get banged up and bruised. Even if you personally carry them one-by-one, many times the hotel employees delivering the bags won’t have as much finesse. Some great, non-smashable options that we’ve used in the past are: reuseable grocery bags, tied handkerchiefs or bandanas and mini beverage coolers. Not only will your gifts arrive to your guests in pristine condition, they’ll al...

DIY: Shower Gift BagsI may have mentioned before that I am a DIY novice. Basically, if a project requires a lot of manual dexterity, artistic ability or complicated steps, it’s probably not for me. I may have the ability to visualize what I want to do but my hands rarely cooperate! With that said, I decided that decorating gift bags for a Valentine’s Day wedding shower would be a good project for me. Taken by me! Here are the supplies that I used: red gift bags (from Michael’s) heart stamp (from Michael’s) pigment stamp pad in Moonlight (from Michael’s) handmade fuchsia paper (though cardstock would ...

Gift Bag TreatI can't ignore it when a company sends a giant box of popcorn to our office. Nor did I want to once I tasted these delicious treats. These people are serious about their popcorn -- from savory to sweet. I tried a lot of their 12 flavors, and liked one better than the next. Reviews from the office place almond biscotti on top, twice-as-nice chocolate drizzle corn as decadent, and hall of fame kettle corn as a crowd pleaser.For hotel gift bags, Dale and Thomas have got you covered. The popcorn is fresh and delicious, the packaging is great, and the foot-long bag helps fill a gift basket. A...
