Wedding Welcome Bags Your Guests Will Love

Whether you’re having a destination wedding or are looking to give out-of-town wedding guests a super lovely welcome, wedding welcome bags and baskets are a gorgeous touch and are really appreciated by those who have made the journey to celebrate with you! They’re especially popular here in the UAE with couples who have moved form elsewhere and now call the UAE home. With lots of guests travelling from far and wide to be with them on the Big Day, it’s a lovely gesture that will show family and friends just how happy you are that they’re there! You can pack your wedding welcome packs with as little or as much as you like – if you want to keep them low-key and cute, essentials like water, some snacks, a map and all your wedding day info (so they know exactly what’s happening and where to go) will do perfectly or if you’re looking to go all out and really treat your guests, there are lots of amazing tokens you can include. Check out some inspo and ideas below…
