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.

    I got my bridesman an engraved razor that came in a kit with shaving cream and extra razors. Then also got more razors with it, since it requires specific razor heads.

    My FH is thinking of getting his groomsmen these really cool, handmade knives. They're Himilayan. Have no idea how he found out about them, but they're amazing.

    Money clips with their initials engraved on them, and specialty liquor from a local distillery! Just stuff we thought they would like Smiley smile

    When I got married we gave our girls engraved jewelry boxes and the guys engraved money clips. But there are some really nice metal keychains, cufflinks or flasks you could get too. On Titanium-Jewelry.com there's a section under special collections for groomsmen gifts that can give you some good ideasSmiley winking Have fun!

    We did these custom engraved beer holders with their name and favorite sports team. For the one non-drinker I found a clock made out of a vintage record (he has a huge vinyl collection). Both were bought on Etsy

    One of the ideas my FH is considering is getting them flasks with their names engraved and filling their flasks with their favorite liquor (for most of the guys it will probably be Jameson).

    We really have not thought about it much. NO alcohol stuff, BM will be 14 and at least 1 other guy is under age also. Also one of my BM's is under age.

    I heard on a radio discussion the groomsmen were complaining that they don't use gifts that have the wedding date or 'groomsman' /' best man' on them. How about tickets to a game or concert? Or wallets with their initials (etsy) ?

    FH has stood up in several weddings and has stated that he KNOWS he does not want to give them engraved Pilsner glasses (he has three from weddings he stood up in), personalized flask (has two of those from another) or a wallet that he got from the last one (he's a bi-fold wallet type of guy and this was a tri-fold), not one of those has ever been used after the wedding day and now sits in a desk drawer in his office collecting dust because he feels bad about throwing it away.

    Also, just like the bridesmaids, NOBODY wants a gift with your wedding date plastered on it and/or BRIDESMAID/GROOMSMEN...just don't do it.

    We just had a BM, so we got him a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses. It was more than I planned on spending for a gift (and we got 50% off!), but that is what my husband wanted to get him so I rolled with it.

    I will probably be making their own beer glass with their names etched in them... then add a mini bottle of their favorite drink... Or something different for the under 21 guys... just haven't figured out what to make them

    FH decided to do cufflinks and ties. Not what I would have picked out but they're his guys and he thinks they'll love them Smiley smile they are both to be worn during the wedding (why I wouldn't have gone this route) but all his guys love getting dressed up so they are things they will most likely use again and again. At least he picked out some stylish stuff, nothing tacky Smiley smile

    We got our guys grill sets that have their favorite sports team logo on them, a jar of specialty BBQ sauce, and we're throwing in a growler of beer from the brewery that's hosting our rehearsal dinner. We also bought their ties and socks for the wedding. FH has also been in lots of weddings and was insistent on not getting them any of the typical groomsmen gifts that he has and never uses (money clip, pocket watch, flask, cigar case, etc.).
