Love Tokens with Local Flair One of the thrills of a destination wedding is finding authentic gifts, trinkets and tokens to personalize the wedding day experience. Consider beachcombing for unique shells and treasures from the sea. The national fruit, the black pineapple, symbolizes hospitality and is always a great gift for the welcome or rehearsal dinner. A wallet-sized wedding photo is always a good memento, but merchandising this photo with pink sand, sea shells, local stamps, samples of local rum put the couple’s signature on the event and elevates memories of the wedding experience. Authentic local are ideal for a couple’s gift exchange, gifts for the bridal party, goodie bags or favors. Travel agents can also use these special treasures to gift the couple, family members or anyone who helped to close the deal on this dream experience. These trinkets, though small, go a long way in saying “thank you.” Here are some recommendations from the Buzz team: A&B BUZZ: JUNE/2011
