Happy Memorial Day, everyone! As we take the time today to remember and honor those who have given everything to guarantee our freedoms (thank you, thank you, thank you), we also look towards the summer and prepare for the sizzling months ahead. Although it's a bit slower of a season down here in South Florida than for the rest of the country, there are still tons of lovely weddings happening over the next few months... so today we're all about sharing our summery Floridian Weddings inspiration!
First up: a guest welcome bag filled with local treats, beachy accessories and must-haves for beating the summer heat.
Items & Sources:
1 - Gift guests with a kitschy way to send a postcard home (don't forget the stamp!)
2 & 3 - Using cute glassine bags (and maybe some custom stickers?), add some tangy key lime candy slices and white chocolate key lime cookies to satisfy their sweet tooth
4 - Water for the room is essential, and Zephyrhills is from right here in Florida (available pretty much everywhere)
5 - For a healthier treat, include some delish mango snacks
6 - Super-cute (and cheap!) flip flops are a fun touch
7 - Stash everything in these eco-friendly jute & cotton bags... you can have them imprinted, but I'd add a sticker or tag instead so your guests can use them again & again
8 - These travel-size tubes of sunscreen are really affordable when you order in bulk
9 - Mmm, tangerine lib balm = perfect!
10 - Guests can easily carry these practical bug repellent wipes everywhere
11 - This Evian facial spray (perfect after a sunny outdoor ceremony) is a luxurious addition
