1. Include heartfelt handwritten letters that sincerely tell them what their efforts meant to you. Gifts are great but long after the booze is gone, they will remember and talk about that letter (and it might help them get some additional business too).

2. Sounds like these guys/gals recognized your predicament and did everything in their power to give you a great experience and reduce your stress. I suggest that you send their spouse/family/significant other a note as well, possibly with a small gift certificate, recognizing them for their understanding and patience when so much focus and time undoubtedly took the workers away from their families. Those workers will never forget you.

Whatever you decide on, I think it's awesome that you are thinking this way.
What great, thoughtful ideas, and well worth the effort. These guys deserve the best, and it’s very true that their wives and offspring had to make some sacrifices. We’ll have to think of something for them, as well. Thanks so much!
