Please take a moment... I need your opinion... OOT boxes
I could save some $$ if I get these as my OOT boxes... they're the perfect size and price. They're just on closeout, so I can get them for $1.20 each! The beach themed ones I was interested in were $3 each, and the plain white ones were $2.35 each.
$70.5 = white
$90 = beach
$36 = the Congratulations ones or the wine and cheese ones
Would it make sense to have the Congratulations ones? That's a considerable savings!!! But is it weird to be wishing ourselves Congratulations, or is it just in the spirit of the weekend? I wanted to do plain white with the burgundy shred to keep the colors, but if I can save that much money and still keep it nice, I will.
The other option, for the same price as the Congratulations box, is the wine and cheese box below. In the box, we're putting a bottle of wine, a bag of Yankee peanuts, chocolate, gum, a candle, possibly a candy apple, water, soda, Advil, etc.

Re: Please take a moment... I need your opinion... OOT boxes
I think the wine and cheese boxes work. They let people that there are snacks inside. In the end People are going to take the goodies and get rid of the box - Save yourself some money.
No one will ever know that the beach boxes were an option.

Re: Please take a moment... I need your opinion... OOT boxes
Thanks! You girls are totally talking me into the wine and cheese ones now! lol. I'm liking it more and more! It's just that the only picture on the box that will be IN the box will be the wine!
Now... what color shred should I put in? This is "red"... but it looks burgundy to me, which is my wedding color. I think it will look good with that wine box. (can you tell I'm terrible at making these decisions?!!? lol):

Re: Please take a moment... I need your opinion... OOT boxes
the wine and cheese is cute and appropriate, and i honestly think it would be wasteful to go for the others!

I agree! For my OOT guests, I'm just buying white bags from AC Moore or Michaels (and using the coupon).
