How To Think About Groomsmen Gifts

You want your groomsmen to feel appreciated for all the hard work they're doing on

your behalf-- renting a tux, dealing with rehearsals, and being there for you. More than that, you want them to have a memento of your last hurrah before bachelorhood. But how do you chose something that won't take space in a closet somewhere once the wedding is over-- only to be discovered later when your groomsman guiltily wonders if he's a jerk for wanting to sell it at a garage sale?

When you're considering what would make the most appropriate wedding party gift for your groomsmen, you'll want to think in terms of a gift that's useful, unique, and personalized.

Something Useful

Chances are, you've got a set of groomsmen with different tastes and lifestyles. The pin-up girl cufflinks that were such a hit end up collecting dust. The tasteful, pricey ties you chose are loved by one groomsman and given away by another who never needs formal wear.

One way to ensure that your gift is appreciated is to make it something that's regularly seen and used-- something that's truly practical. You want something that can fit into the everyday lives of your groomsmen, not something that's just going to take up space for your house. Think in terms of tools, glassware, and the like... everyday items. If you'd like to give something practical and something they'll immediately enjoy, gift baskets for groomsmen can be an excellent choice: you can fill them up with any beverage your groomsman likes, as well as bar accessories.

Something Unique

Unique groomsmen gifts will be remembered. This doesn't mean you should chose a wacky, off-the-wall gift, since a gift like that probably wouldn't be too practical (unless you're a very creative thinker). Unique can simply mean something that's a good representation of the way that you and your groomsmen like to spend time together.. something that's unique to your relationship with them.

Something Personalized

Even though you want your gift to be useful, you'll also want something personalized to each man. Gifts for groomsmen often seem standardized, which is one of the reasons why it's so easy for wedding party gifts to be discarded; personalizing your gift will automatically make it seem thoughtful. You have a lot of options here. Personalized glassware has that individualized touch, and it's useful for just about anybody. Personalized beer buckets have endless utility at parties. And a personalized capcatcher will come in handy for years to come.
