Best Welcome Gift Ideas

by Jessica Gardner

Imagine walking into your room after your drive and seeing a welcome gift waiting on the night stand. You immediately feel thought about and cared for. A simple gesture can sometimes be the most memorable one. 

Whether you’re planning a wedding, hosting a retreat, or gathering family for a reunion, consider setting out a welcome gift! First impressions are everything and can set the event off in the right direction from the guests view.

Coffee and Mugs

What better way is there to spend a morning than with a cup of coffee in nature? This welcome gift idea is perfect for a forest glamping venue like Vernonia Springs! Pick out mugs that fit your theme and grab coffee from a local coffee shop (like Black Bear Coffee Co in Vernonia). 

Sweet and Salty

Everyone loves to have something to snack on! Consider putting together an assortment of 5-10 your favorites snacks. Be sure to have a 50/50 ratio of sweet vs salty. 

Themed Welcome Gift

If you’re hosting a wellness retreat, maybe you include a few of your products. Or items that can be used during the various activities and workshop classes you have planned. Hosting a Lord of the Rings wedding? I’m sure everyone would love to be greeted with bread and trinkets! 

The Necessities

Want to keep it simple and guaranteed to be used? Include things like floss picks, sunscreen, hair ties, mints, etc. You could also put a little basket in each of our restrooms with these items as well!
