Amenities, Are You Ready Yet?
On the wedding day, a place where guests will step in at least once... the restroom*
Of course, the restrooms at wedding venues are clean and well-kept, so they are fine as they are. However, since it's a place where guests can relax without worrying about others' eyes, you would want to prepare ample amenities and provide thoughtful hospitality, right?♩
Here is a standard list of amenity items*
The standard amenities to place in the restroom include:
☑ Toothpicks and floss
☑ Cotton swabs and cotton pads
☑ Sanitary products
☑ Hair products (rubber bands, pins, capes, etc.)
☑ Stockings
☑ Sweat wipes and deodorant
☑ Single-use mouthwash
☑ Turmeric
☑ Oil blotting papers and other makeup touch-up items
☑ Band-aids
There are more amenity items that guests might think, "I don't need this, but I would be happy if it were available♡" from their perspective!
Here are some nice amenity items that brides provide, which are appreciated by guests♩
Nice to Have Amenity Item ① Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes
Have you ever had a moment after touching up your makeup when you don’t want to wash your hands thoroughly but just want to wipe your fingertips?
In such cases, alcohol disinfecting wipes or wet tissues are very convenient♩
If there are single-use items, be sure to check in advance whether there is a trash can inside the restroom.*
Nice to Have Amenity Item ② Hair Dryer, Brush, and Curling Iron
Rubber bands, hairpins, and capes are standard hair products, but
if there are hair dryers and brushes available, both men and women can fix their hair again if it gets messy♡
Although it’s not common, some brides have even prepared curling irons for their guests.*
It’s important to handle curling irons with care, but they can be especially helpful if your bangs or loose hairs lose their curl♩
Nice to Have Amenity Item ③ Hand Mirror
A hand mirror is also one of the appreciated amenity items*
It is useful when you want to touch up detailed areas of your eye makeup, when the main mirror is crowded, or when you want to check your hairstyle from behind♩
Nice to Have Amenity Item ④ Toothbrush
While having mouthwash is standard, have you ever thought about this?
“If I’m going to use mouthwash, I want to brush my teeth too!”
In such cases, having a toothbrush would surely make guests happy.*
Of course, it’s not absolutely necessary, so if the bride has some extra time, why not prepare them?
Nice to Have Amenity Item ⑤ Deodorizing Spray
I don’t think there are many dishes served at the reception that would impart a smell onto clothes, but it’s still recommended to have deodorizing spray just in case♩
Unlike deodorant spray that is applied directly to the body, deodorizing spray should be easy for guests to use by just spraying it on.*
Nice to Have Amenity Item ⑥ Frisco
The last item to introduce is Frisco, a candy that freshens your mouth.*
After using mouthwash, washing your mouth, and then having Frisco, you'll feel refreshed♩ It’s a good idea to create a food and drink corner along with turmeric.
I want to make amenity items that fulfill the “I’m glad it’s there!” wish♡
How was it? We introduced six amenity items beyond the standard that will surprise guests into thinking, “I can’t believe they have this!”*
Of course, you don’t need to prepare everything at all. If you have the resources or feel the need, consider adding the items introduced this time to your list of amenity goods♡
It will surely become an amenity corner that guests will appreciate♩
