Destination wedding hotel room welcome baskets?

I'm having a destination wedding (not tropical or anything, just out of state), and I'm stuck on what to put in the guests' welcome baskets for their hotel room. I don't really have a wedding theme, and I'm on a tight budget. So far, I'm putting little bottles of water that the town is somewhat known for, as well as maps of the state park and the town, marking some of my personal favorites for boutiques and such. I'd like to put one other small thing in there if possible. Our wedding favors will be chocolates, so I don't want to do that. If you were arriving from out of town for a wedding, what would you like to see as a welcome gift in your hotel room. Guests will only be staying the weekend. Thanks!

Put in food or snacks that are locally grown, or produced. For instance, In Wisconsin, cheese and crackers, in Florida, oranges. Wine, beer, maple syrup or candy, pralines, anything local or regional. In Detroit, a Ford, ha, ha. . Here, there is a root beer making and producing plant, a famous brewery, a Dr. Pepper etc plant, a wine growing region is near, and apples, peaches, pecans, horseradish, and cantalopes are the big seasonal food crops. Personally, I would appreciate anything you chose. How nice. Picture postcards of the area are neat for sending, or keepsakes. a disposable camera would be cute, especially in the wedding colors. Rich people put in slippers, bath items in minisizes, booze, snacks. a fruit basket might be given.
