Branded merchandise celebrates Bush daughter's wedding

The village of Crawford in Texas has been besieged by journalists, guests and souvenir hunters for the wedding of George Bush's daughter Jenna.

Jenna Bush, a 26-year-old school teacher, will marry Henry Hager, an MBA candidate from the University of Virginia.

Branded merchandise and souvenirs are on sale around the town including mugs bearing the images of the couple, Jenna and Henry fridge magnets and celebratory mouse mats.

It is even possible to buy Jenna and Henry-themed hand-worked leather coasters in the shape of Texas, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Branded merchandise and commemorative items are popular ways to celebrate and remember an event.

For example, using promotional items and corporate gifts as a way to promote a certain conference can mean that people keep the items as a souvenir of a good business trip.

Blog 21976 recommends distributing corporate gifts and engraved accessories that can be kept by those receiving them as a momento of the pleasant times they may have had in association with your company.
