I just saw a wedding party at the hotel I work at give out totes to their guests and I bet if they saw these they would have re-thought their plain totes !

Love going with something sustainable for the bag instead of a paper throw away. And there are so many fun, affordable options out there, you just have to look!
September 15th, 2010 at 10:09 am
Just got engaged and would LOVE for this to be the first acquisition!

Totes must be on the brain today, we just did a post on them as well…these are such great options (and no doubt one lucky reader will be so happy to have one of Melangerie’s coveted totes)!

I love the tote idea for our Out of Town goodie bags. They would be perfect for our destination wedding along the beach. Thank you for this great giveaway!

So cute! I can just see myself carrying that around on the beach on our honeymoon… or filling it with the emergency kit of the wedding day… or using it as my “green” grocery bag… the possibilities are endless!

Love the totes! We still have a year until our wedding, but I’ve already decided that I definitely want welcome bags in the hotel rooms and think totes are a great idea, especially since I’m trying to be as green as possible. And a tote for myself would be lovely too!
September 15th, 2010 at 2:47 pm
This would be perfect for carrying all the necessities to our ceremony in Central Park in a few short months… I am keeping my fingers crossed that this bag will be the super-stylin’ mode of transport for our rings and vows!
September 15th, 2010 at 3:58 pm
I LOVE this tote. We just starting thinking about this for our guests, as we will be having people from Italy coming to our wedding next year. This tote is ADORABLE!
September 15th, 2010 at 4:19 pm
i would GLADLY love accepting this welcome gift at an eco-friendly wedding. cute, useful AND green.
September 15th, 2010 at 4:25 pm
I love this tote!! I’ve been looking for one just like it!
September 15th, 2010 at 4:29 pm
i’ve been eyeing this tote forever! it’s adorable and the font makes me swoon.
September 15th, 2010 at 4:40 pm
So lovely!
September 15th, 2010 at 5:01 pm
I like that the Baggu ones fold up! The only reuseable bags I ever remember to bring into the store with me are the collapseable ones that I carry in my purse all the time. Of course, with this stylish tote, I might e motivated to remember it!
September 15th, 2010 at 5:11 pm
Love the ‘to have, to hold’ bag! In Toronto, where I live, we are now charged 5 cents per bag so everyone has gotten onto the reusable bag wagon pretty quickly! Needless to say I have a huge collection, but none as cute as any of these!
September 15th, 2010 at 6:34 pm
This tote is so cute! I love the swirly-ness of the font! I could use this for so many different things!
September 15th, 2010 at 7:54 pm
Love the tote! It’s so cute, and the typography is fab!!
September 15th, 2010 at 7:59 pm

September 16th, 2010 at 2:23 pm
Love this tote! I’m using the font in my wedding stationary!
September 16th, 2010 at 2:25 pm
I love these! Everyone should have a collection of reusable bags. And how fun for the bride-to-be/newlywed!

Thanks for sharing these tote ideas. I am from Texas, but moved to California for my fiancé. Our wedding will be on the beach in California, and I want to provide my Texas guests with welcome bags that are memorable and that they can reuse. These ones are great. I’d love even more ideas.
