Another opinion please! ;)

Ok I know I have been asking for a lot of opinions lately but I need some more My sister is getting married in Florida (we are all from Michigan) and I originally wanted to get her and her fiance a bag of beachy things for their wedding/honeymoon gift. They are not really having a honeymoon though. They are getting married near Ft. Myers and then heading to the keys with some friends and parents. I would still like to get them a bag but I am trying to come up with ideas to put in it. So far I was thinking of getting a personalized beach bag, a tank top that says "just married" or maybe a personalized tank that says "Mrs" and maybe get him a tshirt that says "Mr" or something along those lines. Maybe also flips flops that say married. Are these dumb ideas? Please give me ALL your input, I won't be offended Thank you wonderful ladies!

Edited: If you know of any good personalizing websites, please add those!

I got married in Cuba. In our welcome bags to our guests who were joining us we included: a mes beach bag, hand fan, personalized sunscreen, a bottle of Cuba rum, personalized margarita mix, and personalized beach-safe cases. The personalized items were purchased in bulk, so it might be more difficult to order small quantities. The beach safe cases were by far the most talked about item as it was easy to store cash/credit/hotel key in one easy safe place at the beach. I am afraid this was years ago and I can't remember where we ordered these items from. I am positive it came from an online American retailer as I had searched high and low here in Canada.

I don't know what part of the keys they're going to but if its key west and they are drinkers (key west has a ton of bars) you can check for mr and mrs shot glasses to put in there or just married. Personalized beach towels would be cute too.

I've also seen cute tshirts that say Wifey on it. I think those are cute.

You could include like small bottles to collect sand and sea shells. Keep sake kind of deal. I know they sell them in the shops in Florida but I like collecting my own.

What about things to use on the beach like magazines, insulated cups with straws and flip flops to go along with the bigger items.

What about monogram insulated cups with the straws. I agree- I would rather have monogram stuff than bride/groom. I had the Just Marries flip flops for our honeymoon and they didn't leave good impressions into the sand- my husband put them on so I could get a pic of it in the sand.

I agree with PPs , I tend to think of the Mr & Mrs items as more just wedding weekend wear for a photo op. I would go with something monogrammed.

If you want to make it honeymoon oriented, throw in some massage oil and a candle. Maybe a sexy bra/panties for your sister. Boxers for him. A couple of magazines. Chocolate hugs and kisses. I love the his/hers towel idea.

LL Bean has great bags in different styles you can get monogrammed and the prices are pretty reasonable.
