Welcome the Out-of-Towners!

I think great touches to a wedding/event are welcome gifts for those out-of-towners who have traveled so far to enjoy this special day with you.  A welcome gift could be anything that may represent you, the city you're from, or can be just full of necessities that they might need along the way.  I think making a basket or gift bag and then placing it in the hotel room before they arrive is a nice surprise!

Examples:
-gift cards to local restaurants or cafes
-water bottles
-parking passes for the parking garage in the city where the wedding is
-favorite cookies and candies
-picture of the couple or guest of honor
-fruit
-tickets to the zoo, museum, or movie theater where the couple had their first date
-flip flops and sunglasses for a beach wedding

The list can go on and on, however, never forget to add a little thank you note too!
