My FH and i are shopping for groomsmen gifts. here is the catch to the typical flask/lighter/knife/coke & rum pails/ watch traditions. none of them drink, all of them keep box cutters on them at all times bc they work for customs and retail, the coke and rum pails are something our friend is doing for their wedding but again, none of ours drink. we have given watches to them for Christmas last year so i don't want to get them another one or they will prolly think im trying to hint something to them lol. They all have a common interest of video games but all the forums i have seen online are full of trolls just saying humorous but unhelpful things. point is, do you ladies have any suggestions?

I saw someone on here I forget who... got their groomsmen cuff links and I believe there were ones that were little nintendo controlers. They seem like they might just be up your alley! Check out etsy! Good luck

I'm a huge gamer too! Maybe do a game theme gift box? Custome designed tshirts with a cute game related saying? "Couldn't level up without you" "thanks for helpinh me find the right castle" "acheievement unlocked: got him to the alter"

The cuff links are super cool for the wedding. The "Achievement Unlocked" saying is really cute too, but because my man is a total gamer I think that Amy's suggestion is the best. Give them a gift card to Gamestop, an X-Box live gold membership, or something like that; give them something that they will use after your day and that they can enjoy.

Soooo... combining all of the ideas we have come with the idea to get personalized wallets that have their name & favorite game logo/character on them. we would place each wallet into an empty xbox 360 game case that has a special cover print and a cheesy line i borrowed from my pal @oheyitsina "acheievement unlocked: got him to the alter" What ya ladies think?

My whole wedding is game-themed, and my fiance is getting his guys Steam gift cards and beer mugs with their favorite game logos etched into them .

That does sound really cute @sarah, but don't you think they might like to have some kind of actually xbox game? You could still go with the special case and the cute message, but maybe you could put a gift card to game stop or somewhere inside.
