Goodie bags

Sharon, on May 23, 2022 at 1:13 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 1 13
I was planning on having goodie bags for the guests that bring children, with crayons, coloring pages and bubbles. Does anyone else think that it's a good idea?

    I think that's a good way to keep children entertained! Weddings can sometimes feel long to younger kids, especially during the ceremony or during speeches at the reception, but having something quiet for them to do is a good idea.

    Love this idea! I actually did this for our engagement party and will prob do again for the wedding since I have so many little canvas bags and stickers left over from then. I’ll maybe add in glow sticks or the pop it things.

    Oh good, I was hoping that I was on the right track. And yes you're right, they do get bored and that's when they act up. I figured I'd keep them occupied besides food. LoL 😆 Thank you.

    Oh good, I'm glad it worked for you at your engagement party. Yes, I think they would have a blast with the poppers, especially at the end. Now I know I'm on the right track hahahahaha. Thank you. And happy engagement, congratulations.

    These sound great! I'd caution you against doing bubbles though if your venue has wood floors. Little kids tend to spill bubbles anywhere and that could make it dangerous for your other guests.

    It’s a great idea. I did colouring/activity books and coloured pencils for the kids at our wedding and they were a hit. The parents will thank you!

    I think it is a great idea - I ordered these for my day - I like that it has a scavenger hunt as well. I got 12 of these off Amazon for under $30!

    I also say no to bubbles because they can leave marks on peoples dresses/ clothes and just be messy!

    Ohh wow, those are so cute. I like those. Thank you for the suggestion, I appreciate it. I was thinking that the bubbles would be for outside while we were leaving or for them to take home. But yes I understand what you mean with the stains.
    Congratulations on your wedding. Stay safe.
