    I am getting married in June in St. Augustine, Florida and I need some ideas for OOT bags for our guests who are staying in hotels.  What do you suggest?  Right now this is what I have thought of:

    - 2 Figi H2O Bottles

    - Baked goods from a local bakery in a cello bag with ribbon

    - St. Augustine area magazine

    - Map of the St. Augustine historic district.

    It doesn't have to scream Florida or the beach necessarily.  Like I said, I need help!!  Please & thank you!  :)

    We included Crackerfuls in ours. They are a pretty filling snack. I know that doesn't scream FLORIDA...

    Mints or gum

    Lol, it doesn't necessarily have to scream FL or the beach (I hate the beach, lol) but just some items that they will enjoy having. Keep the ideas coming ladies!  Thank you!

    If you don't care if it screams FL MAYBE you could put some mini bottles of liquor. Guests might really love not paying for the mini bar!

    Definitely "Florida" things would be things like MrsNeutrino said: sunblock, chapstik, definitely an orange! brochures of activities to do around town, postcards from the city.  If you can go to the visitors bureau and grab some info and stuff from them.

    I second...or third the sunblock, chapstick, lotion ideas. Maybe hit the dollar store and put in a word find book or some flip flops, fruit snacks or something along those lines. If you are doing any group activity, you can add an itinerary.
