Need a creative idea to present a gift and travel with it?

Hello all- my cousins are getting married at the end of August and they are having a beach wedding, being married directly on the sand. It is a second marriage for both of them, and I am the only one of my immediate family attending the wedding. My family and I decided to put together a basket of some sort for them, full of some little knick-knacks and 5-6 gift cards to different places. I thought about putting all the trinkets in a pail and shovel, but don't know how I would get something large like that on the plane. The basket will include a hat and beach towel for each the bride and groom, a boat maintenance kit for the groom's boat, bath & body works stuff for the bride, Hershey's kisses, a framed poem in a shadowbox I wrote for them, and of course the giftcards. I would like to present the gift in a fun and beachy themed way. Any and all ideas would be great! Thanks!
--------------------
I would have your family contribute to a fund for the gift, and then buy it local to where ever the wedding is. This way you save the extra luggage fee for flying it, as well as the hassel of figuring out how to transport it from point a to point b and the hassel of actually doing so.
