Do You Need a Toilet Basket?

One bride says, ‘Guests need to be able to wash and dry their hands. That's it. You are not responsible for supplying every hygiene product they might need; they're adults, they should have that covered already.’

Another says, ‘In my opinion, this is a frivolous waste of money. I never heard of such a thing! I will not do such a thing. All that matters is that we get married and have fun. Years from now, no one is going to be saying, "remember the bathroom baskets"? Instead, they will be saying, "remember how much fun we had, and the food was great".’

My friend had a toilet basket at her wedding, and I remember it! I thought it was a really useful touch! When my hair started to fall out of place (not sure why that happened although there was a lot of alcohol involved) I found it really useful that my friend had a few hair pins to help me out!

I think you could buy the ingredients for your basket quite cheaply. Amazon.com sells a variety of different sizes of basket, but I think the small one is the most appropriate.

A few ribbons, a bit of tissue paper and some hobby craft wedding flowers, and it’ll look amazing!

And after the wedding, you can use the basket for storage!
