Wedding Welcome Bags: Custom Patch Totes for Your Guests

Welcome bags set the tone for a wedding weekend, especially a destination or coastal wedding. Make the bag itself the gift: a canvas boat tote your guests will reuse long after the weekend, instead of a paper bag they toss at the hotel.

Ideas for your welcome tote

  • The couple's initials: two letter patches and a heart, star or bow.
  • The location: a Nantucket, Cape Cod or city patch for where you're getting married.
  • A custom patch: your monogram, crest or venue drawing, made into a patch through our bulk & custom orders.

What to put inside

  • A weekend itinerary and a local map
  • Water, snacks and something local (saltwater taffy, a local coffee)
  • Sunscreen or a hangover kit
  • A thank-you note from the couple

Totes for the wedding party

Give your bridal party their own version with their initials. See bridesmaid proposal box ideas.

Plan ahead

For welcome bags and group orders, reach out at least 6 weeks before the wedding so there's time for custom patches. Start a quote on our bulk orders page, or read our custom event merch guide.
