    What kinds of local things did you include in your Philly OOT bags?  I was thinking Tasty Kakes and maybe soft pretzels but I'm not sure.

    I went to Philly recently with my Fi and you guys have a beautiful city!  I personally got a LOVE sculpture magnet!  That would be a cute idea, after all its from your city and it's for your wedding!

    I put in a lot of home baked goods but I defnitely included Tastykakes and Hershey Kisses  (since Hershey is so close). You could also do soft pretzels which is definitely a Philly trademark.

    Repperts candy (berks county), Highland Orchard apples, Herrs Pretzels, Hershey Kisses, Victory Beer.  Soft pretzels are better hot and fresh...maybe throw in something from Wawa?  You can always put in some brochures for the Philly area.

    We also did hersheys and tastycakes. We were planning on picking up fresh pretzels, but we ended up not doing it because they would stale by the time the guests checked in (since we had to drop off all the OOT bags 2 days before the first guest arrived).

    We picked up a whole bunch of brochures from the Independence Hall Visitor Center.

    Two bottles of water with our custom logo. We were thinking about throwing in some local beer too but the bag got too heavy with the water.

    A thank you note - maybe you can use a Philly postcard for the note.

    The LOVE magnet idea is cute. I should have done that!

    We're doing a lot of the things mentioned above as well as Wawa Iced Tea and pamplets for the regional rail lines (since we're getting married just outside of Philly).  Any other ideas??
