    Hi everyone, curious for your thoughts on amenity baskets for the bathrooms?  In your opinion, do you think it's worth putting together?  Are you doing them for your wedding?  Any insights would be great.  thanks!

    We're doing bathroom baskets in faux-antique planter boxes!!! I think they make a big impact with minimal effort!

     

    Be sure to check out the wiki on Bathroom Baskets... I found it incredibly helpful when I started looking for items!

    I am, for both the men's and ladies - it'll be appreciated and I'm sure there have been times when we were out and could have used some things.  Anything not used, we'll have for travel so it's totally worth it.

    I'm not doing them since our ceremony and reception are in 2 different locations.

    I'm doing them for the reception location only.  I think it's a small gesture that goes a long way, even if it is only one person that NEEDS something out of that box, it is appreciated!!

    We are!  They are fairly inexpensive to do and add a nice touch.

    I'm definitely doing both a ladies one and a mens one. Someone suggested to me going to Macy's and collecting some different perfume/cologne samples to throw in there... i think it might be a nice addition... and free too!
