What did you guys give as groomsmen gifts?

Jessie, on July 28, 2014 at 11:49 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 40

Ok so I have my bridesmaids and flower girls gifts picked out and ready to order, but I cannot for the life of me think of what to get the groomsmen! I need some inspiration and ideas! Pictures welcome as well.

    The best advice I ever received was find something that is important to you and/or your FH and share that.

    My FH ALWAYS has his swiss army knife with him. He uses it all the time and never goes anywhere without it. Well he got swiss army knives for his groomsmen as well and put an engraving on them "Brothers in Arms".

    Me? I LOVE astronomy so I got my BM necklaces with a picture of the Pleiades because each of them is like a sister to me and what better way to show that than with the 7 sister themselves.

    Make the gifts personal to you and your FH and it will make it meaningful instead of just another typical gift that they probably won't use.

    I think the best advice is to choose something THEY will like based in their interests, hobbies etc., since it is a gift to THEM. Sharing one of your interests may result in the gift being tossed in a drawer and never used. They don't have to all receive the same gift. Also, since these are your FH's groomsmen, let him take care of their gifts.

    We decided it would be fh's job to do the groomsmen gifts since they are standing beside him while I take care of my girls. He has no idea what he wants to do for them but I suggested that he gets them all something individualized To their taste and maybe an engraved flask or something. I had originally thought maybe like a tailgate cooler for the sports fanatics and maybe case of favorite beer or something that won't go to waste.

    FH got his guys coolers with some marinades and rubs inside along with an engraved mug. He might throw in steaks and an ice pack for each also but he's not sure yet.

    I asked this same question a few weeks ago, and went with engraved Leathermans. They are really nice.

    My fiance picked out zippo lighters and had them monogrammed. None of the groomsmen smoke but they're all outdoorsy types. He also got those bottle openers that say "mancard" and fit in your wallet. They're from The Chive website, but he found them on Etsy.

    His friends are all very stereotypical midwestern/outdoors men. I'm having a harder time finding something for my male usher who is not into any of that stuff. Got him popcorn and a canister since I know he likes to eat popcorn. Thinking of picking up an Amazon giftcard too because I just can't come up with any other ideas.

    We got our groomsmen monogrammed Ogio gym bags. FH got one in a wedding he was in and uses it every day. His groomsmen are all pretty fit guys and I think they will really like them!

    We got pilsner glasses with their names etched on to them, and one of those credit card bottle openers that fits in their wallets.

    I struggled with this too as not all of our groomsmen are into the same type thing...they aren't all into golf or all into drinking, etc. but something I know they all will at least get some use out of is a knife so we went with personalized pocket knives from The Knot and will probably also get them a mini bottle or two/six pack of their favorite drink (when they do drink) to have while getting ready.

    FH is getting three of his groomsmen customized leather wrapped flasks, my brother a knife with his initials and his brother a customized leather bound journal since he likes to write.

    Think of things that fit them!
