    I saw this idea on another blog:

    http://www.projectwedding.com/biography/list/MrsLDL 

    (11) Survival Kits for Vendors:  I made a few wedding survival kits for my vendors who would work ALL DAY, like my photographer and planner.  I purchased a set of 10-12 gift bags from Target's wedding section and filled it with Red Bull, Smart Water, emergency chocolate, snack size trail mix, Goldfish and asian trail mix.  They really appreciated it and it only cost a few dollars per bag to make. 

    My DOC will be working a 12+ hour day, and photographers an 8 hour day.  Another thing for them to scelp around or helpful?

    I saw this too through the featured profile on the blog today. I think it's a really neat idea and I'm thinking of making it as well.

    Our wedding will be a summer wedding outdoor so we probably won't include the chocolate. :P

    Definitely will include the Red Bull (even though it's not for everyone but we will probably have those in stock for the boys anyway), Vitamin Water, regular water, trail mix. Maybe some mints? Probably nix the goldfish because it does leave a little residue on your hands.

    Would love to see what others may include!

    Yep!

    Awesome idea. we're doing this as well. I think it's very thoughtful, and it actually works to both parties' advantage...Happy Vendor=Great Output

    ...I was fishing for info the other day on my photog's site...turns out they like Snicker bars, so Snicker bars it is for their survival kit!

    @pinaybride,
    Love the idea of prowling their sites/blogs to find out their favorite snacks! Great idea. Will have to do that once I actually have vendors! Hehe.
