Groomsmen gift ideas.... HELP!!

Triana, on April 15, 2011 at 10:01 AM Posted in Planning 0 43

FH and I are stuck when it comes to the GM's gifts. I have my MOH's and BM's gifts picked out, but we cannot decide on the GM. We want something personal but inexpensive since we have a large BP. Any ideas ......

    I thought about those, only thing, to tell you the truth, i don't even know how many of them would wear cufflinks. At 50-60 a piece, i want something they're definately going to use, lol

    We found a personalized sports beer mug for the Best man, and a personalized wine glass for the groomsman.

    Beers of the month club can get really really expensive. FH and I looked into some for his dad's christmas present, and a 3-month package is usually over a hundred dollars. It could get prohibitively expensive if you have a large bridal party.

    Oh wow, we have a large bridal party so that may not work. The idea was awesome though.

    I've got 8 groomsmen and a best man to get gifts towards and I was originally going to get them all a nice bottle of the favorite liquor or a nice bottle of wine. Unfortunately FW's brother doesn't drink at all, so just as my sister complicated things for her he's complicating things for me! I decided to get each something that would be personal to each. Fortunately I have some contacts that are able to get 4 of them for free (signed footballs for 3 of them from a player at our alma mater and the 4th is getting one signed by a former player of his favorite team) which has allowed me to splurge on the other 4. I'm going to get my FBIL and his wife tickets to a baseball game that we'll attend with them next season (a night out without their kids) and the other 3 I'm going to get some autographed memorabilia from something that matters to them (one is a baseball fan, another basketball and another loves comic books).

    We've got 10 GM: My suggestion: An engraved cigar case with a REALLY nice cigar.

    At one point or another, we'd already gotten them flasks, pocket watches, cufflinks, beer mugs . . . etc.

    We did personalized gym bags. I also wanted to do personalized mini grills but FH thinks the bags will get more use. So gym bags it is. See pic below. I will say that you may want to get your FH and person walking you down the aisle one too! After I ordered them for the GM, FH and Dad asked if they were getting one too? Arrrggghh!

    Edit: bag from jessicaswedding.com

    Try orientaltrading.com you can get personalized money clips with a watch on it for like $15 each, personalized flasks (8oz) are $20 each, personalized steel can coolers $10... etc. just make sure to read the reviews, becuase some products are not as high qulity, but if your looking to save a LOT of money it's def. the way to go.

    @Glenn, I wish I had your contacts, lol, your gifts are really nice and original. @Noei, that's a good idea, I considered that, and from what I understand the majority of GM drink. @Ianthe, I like this too, I need to look into this, I haven't come across any yet on the sites i've looked at, or just looked over them

    We are getting a bottle of liquor (a nice one) for each of ours because they all have "bars" at their houses or they like to display bottles.

    It kind of depends on the personalities of the people. I would just go with something that "fits" them.

    @EDubbsgirl, i didn't see your post earlier, this is so funny, FH was just looking at bags similar last night, we should've just put that down in pen. I'm comparing prices now. @Summer G., I totally agree, that's what's making it so hard, trying to get everyones personality in their gift.

    We do not have Groomsmen, only a BM. Unless we find something bike related, we are getting him a cigar/flask combo. We did do tie tacks for our MC, musical performers and DJ.

    Our groomsmen gifts are their ties we bought them for the wedding. They are really nice silk ties that we are going to have their names, a thank you in Irish (we are both Irish), and our wedding date.

    Go to Things Remembered, we are getting our guys personalized globes for their offices. They are so neat, they float and turn on their own through magnets.
