Bridesman gift ideas

Gifts specific to their hobbies or interests are much more genuine than the same generic gift for everyone. For example, my bridesman loves whiskey so he got customized whiskey glasses, one of my bridesmaids is a tattoo artist so she got a leather-bound sketchbook. Shop like you would for their birthday.

There is no one size fits all gift. Robes, jewelry, mugs, are not gifts, they are props for getting ready photos that will never be worn/used again.


Pick something not wedding related at all with no names/dates/titles that fits their individual interests/personalities/hobbies that they will enjoy long after the wedding. Like you're shopping for them for Christmas/birthday. Etsy is a great starting place to look.

Exactly what the post was about! Definitely don't want generic mugs and wedding gifts lol thanks!

If it helps, I purchased beautiful clutch purses during Black Friday sales for the girls in colors I thought suited their style with Starbucks gift card inside. For my Man of Honor (my brother) I got him a gift card to his favorite decor store as he and his husband are redecorating their home. Good luck to you and your fiancé ❤️

It seems like you have totally covered the area of cute gifts of appreciation. I would MUCH prefer having my dress/hair/makeup paid for rather than any additional physical gift (especially if traveling- I’ve definitely left destination wedding gifts behind before due to space!).

Absolutely, since most are traveling I plan on covering hair and makeup, but would also love to give them a gift as an extra thank you!

Both Pinterest & YouTube have some really great/unique ideas! Some ideas from there include champagne flutes w/ a mini champagne bottle, nail polish, lipstick, a cute koozie, face masks, etc. Definitely check it out! It’d be cute to fill the makeup bags with some small goodies

I know you said you didn't want anything wedding related, but my brother was a bridesman and I gave him a shirt that said never thought I'd be a bridesman, but here I am killing it. He loved it. I also gave all of my bridesmaids wine glasses, but he doesn't drink so I gave him a more manly looking mug that wasn't specifically for alcohol like a wine glass. The filled the wine glasses/mug with each person's favorite candy.

I'm gifting my girls beach totes in their favorite colors. I will be putting the rest of their goodies in them. Like a gift within a gift type of thing. I did get them personalized robes, their favorite snacks and then I'll be getting them little beauty products like lip balms, bath bombs, perfumes, lotions, etc. I'm not really getting anything too matchy, I want to make each tote feel personal.

I had a bridesman too! i had a set of socks that i gave everyone except him i just gave him different socks for men. i gave everyone jewelry with a knot design that said thanks for helping me tie the knot but for him i gave him that design as cufflinks!

You could do socks, jewelry, customized tumblers or cup with their name on it (or flasks)

I gifted my bridesmaids silk robes and my groomsmen black silk pjs to use while getting ready the day of the wedding
