Your groomsmen have always been there for you all these years. They saw you at your best and your worst and didn't complain one bit. Yours is a kind of friendship that has been tried and tested through time and you just know each of them is irreplaceable. Now here they are about to join you in celebrating the most important chapter of your adult life.
You can show your gratitude to these people by giving them simple tokens of friendship before you enter married life. For sticking with you all these years, they all deserve it. Your gifts do not necessarily have to be expensive or elaborate. The trick is to add a personal touch to the items to make the gifts worth giving. Personalizing your gifts means that the receivers are special enough that you went the extra mile to think creatively. There are many ways to personalize gifts. Here are 5 ways to personalized them with style: Caricature
This tops my list of ways to personalize groomsmen gifts. It is sentimental yet it is still fun. Search for a photograph where all of you are present then have it sketched by an artist. This is the kind of present that is worth keeping for life. I am sure all of the guys would hang this to their walls. This is suitable if you and your groomsmen have known each other for a fairly long time and have shared a very deep bond. You will know if it is not appropriate if you find this gift awkward to give to your groomsmen. Follow your gut.
Engraved Items
This is the most common way to personalize gifts. Although it's simple, it still works for most guys. Most guys still love receiving items with their name on it. It is also advisable if you are running out of time to think of a good idea but you still want something special. The most popular items that can be engraved are flasks, lighters, pens, mugs, and flash drives. There are plenty of online stores and boutiques that offer these services. It usually takes more than two days for the stores to do it so you better make sure you still have enough time.
Printed T-Shirts
Next to engraving, the next most popular way of personalizing items is printing. The guys would definitely love the funny printed groomsmen shirts that have become a fad nowadays. There are lots of different fun designs for you to choose from online. This gift spells coolness and male pride.
Adding a Note or a Card
Adding a simple note or card with a short message makes any gift extra special. Pair this with simpler items just to add more sentimental value to your presents. This works well with the engraved items above but not so much with the caricature. Giving them sentimental framed caricatures with a card would be too much.
Personalized Packaging
You can show your love by sprinkling a bit of personal touch to the package. You can make your own gift boxes with personalized prints, you can print out your photos and make it into a cool wrapping paper, or you can even personalize gift cans.
With these choices, it is a crime not to personalize your groomsmen gifts. This is one of the rare occasions when you can finally express to your best buds how important they are to you. Make the best out of it by making it unique.About the Author:
