Good Groomsmen gifts? - Page 2

BigCat · 06-16-2009, 05:21 PM

I gave my groomsman engraved crystal double old fashions from Things Remembered. My in-laws had bought me a set for a graduation present and I really liked them. They are nice quality glasses. I also gave a bottle of booze to go with the glasses. It was a big hit. I still hear about the glasses from time to time. I can try to find you the link if you are interested. I think the whole setup cost about 70 bucks per person - including the booze.

HMRs of course.

Are you gonna be wearing your smurf suit to the wedding, Bobby?

Best one I ever recieved and the only one that didn't make it to the bottom of a junk drawer was the Mont Blanc pen I got about 12 years ago.

It is in my front shirt pocket every day.

I did pocket knives with their initials on them

a friend did $25 gift cards to banana republic

another did a subscription to a magazine for each (ESPN for me) AND bought us all our suits for the wedding (merona from target, affordable and nice looking)

I bought mine engraved money clips. I also received a nice leather case travel bar for one of the weddings I was in.

I got all my groomsmen a couple of small gifts that had to do with golf/drinking and then also a really nice Truefitt & Hill razor. My best man got a Truefitt & Hill razor/brush set. Everyone really seemed to like the razor and they all use it everyday (or just about) as far as I know.

That's what I did as well. The ones I talk to regularly still carry/use them often.

Hi, I have a website that has the most popular groomsmen gifts listed on the page. What they have listed sells really well all the time. That means that the gifts are well liked, otherwise they wouldn't be listed on the page anymore. I know that for sure. Check it out, and let us know what you come up with for ideas. I know knives, Zippo lighters, and shaving items are good because people use those items all the time. Here is the site:

Can I vote for a nice canoe style pocket knife? Camillus makes some nice ones.

Luckily my mates all golf, so I gifted boxes of Pro V1 balls & also matching ties for the ceremony.

Flasks always work. Their favorite baseball/football/hockey/basketball team merch like a mug or something. Knifes like other botls are saying are a good idea too.

I like to get gifts that I know they'll use later. Most of these fit the bill.
