What to Include in Your Wedding or Event Welcome Bag (That Guests Actually Keep)

Custom canvas welcome tote bag with guest gifts from Club Kit wedding, designed by Print Provedore

We’ve all been there. You arrive at a hotel or event and receive a welcome bag. Inside? A few flyers, maybe a mint… and a branded item that gets left behind.

At Print Provedore, we believe welcome bags should feel curated, not obligatory. Whether you're planning a wedding, brand launch, or milestone celebration, here’s how to build a custom welcome kit your guests will actually love - and keep.

Something Wearable in Your Wedding Welcome Bag

Don’t settle for a stiff, oversized tee that screams afterthought. Instead, consider:

  • Premium cotton T-shirts or tanks with subtle branding

  • Branded caps or embroidered totes

  • Soft socks or pyjama shorts for multi-day events

Choose pieces that match the tone of your event and feel wearable beyond it. Minimal design and quality fabric go a long way.

Practical Items for Event Welcome Kits

Think utility, not landfill:

  • Custom water bottles or coffee cups

  • A simple printed map or itinerary on premium card stock

  • Hand sanitiser or travel wipes with discreet branding

The goal is function + form. Make it beautiful, and people will keep it.

Small Personalised Touches for Guest Welcome Gifts

Small touches make big impressions:

  • A custom matchbox with your event monogram

  • A welcome note signed by hand

  • A QR code linking to a playlist or digital guide

When it feels considered, it feels premium.

Snackable Treats That Surprise and Delight

After-party hunger is real. Include:

  • Locally made cookies or chocolates

  • Branded nut mixes or popcorn

  • A hydration sachet or hangover helper kit

You’ll be the hero of the morning after.

Reusable Items That Extend the Experience

Close with something they'll use again:

  • Branded canvas tote

  • Customised playing cards

  • Travel pouch or toiletry bag

Keep it intentional, and it becomes a brand extension - not just a freebie.

Final Thought

A great welcome bag isn’t about adding more stuff - it’s about choosing items that reflect your taste, brand, or celebration. At Print Provedore, we help you source, brand, and deliver premium merch that feels thoughtful, not throwaway.
