Calling all creative minds. My brain is broken.

A good friend of mine is doing a co-ed bachelor/bachelorette party w/ her fiance at a casino later in the month.  I'm pregnant and grumpy, so I'm not going.  However, the MOH thought of this cute idea to leave for the bride and groom.  I have zero mental energy.  Can you guys help me come up with an idea:

We would like to leave them a goodie bag in the room compiled of items that WE all thought of. Choose an item and tell the couple why you are choosing that item. For example:

Baby Ruth - "May Chester Copperpot lead you on your new adventure" - Person A
100 Grand - "Wishing you a bountiful future ahead"- Person B
Pop Rocks - well... umm... err... wink, wink, nudge, nudge :)

The possibilities are endless: Sun Chips, Nerds, Hot Tamales, SnoCaps, etc. – get creative!

So... I need an item and a cute fortune-cookie-like message... any thoughts?

Re: Calling all creative minds. My brain is broken.

  • Goldfish Crackers - "May the future smile upon you as you start on your journey"

    Or something like that...sorry, currently finishing off an entire bag of Goldfish as I type so naturally that was the first thing that popped in my head!!

  • Does it have to be food? I was thinking of a sponge/roll of paper towels/rag/etc. "to clean up life's messes" But, I am lame and not creative... 
  • Loading the player...
  • A loaf of French bread with the note, "may your life be like French bread, long and full of dough"

    Tough to pack though

  • condoms "to wrap your summer sausage" or something to that affect...meat sounded too dirty

  • I've seen this before and am completely drawing a blank as to what the captions on items were. Maybe you could google "bachelorette gift basket captions" or something. At my cousin's party a bunch of the bridesmaids put one together with different types of wine for different occasions - wedding night, first anniversary, first fight, etc.. Each had a name that was applicable to the occasion and a little blurb explaining what it was for.

    Yes, the winky face is necessary

  • A bottle of wine - to forget anything you may wine about. Our something like that? I just really want some wine.
  • @ashtonkitty1 - I don't get the BR reference either.... but I thought I was just dumb.

    They're not drinkers (I know, right????) so no booze.

    I think the Baby Ruth thing might be a Goonies (the 80s movie) reference :)
    Edit: @bluebird00‌ beat me to it! :)

  • An apple, to keep the doctor away? Lol trying to think of something other than candy is hard!
