stevestojan Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 What are some of the good ones you've gotten? Bad Ones? I'm simply trying to avoid the cliche gifts like cuff links, flasks, etc, etc. Something unique, that is something they may actually use would be cool. Looking to spend $50 or less each (7 guys in my wedding party!)
Corp000085 Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I just got a monogrammed humidor with a few cigars in it. That was cool. For my brother in law's wedding, he gave us a 12 pack of our favorite beer, and a unique gift of somewhat equal value. I got a sabres hat, and the rest got a gift in the $20-$30 range. Inexpensive and unique.
Chef Jim Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 How about a blow job. That would be pretty unique. Oh and with seven guys, you might want to wear knee pads.
VABills Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Tennis balls for their plumbing problems Velcro sneakers
Pete Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I have gotten flasks, money clips, poker chips, and cuff links. How about some Bills stuff? Too bad stuff is so expensive- something like a putter would be a cool gift. Do your groomsmen have any common interests?
RayFinkle Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Find a decent $50 watch that looks nice. You can usually land "last year's" model at a good price. I got a fossil watch a couple of years back for standing up. It is still one of my favorite watches.
MattyT Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I gave my guys leather shaving kits. I know at least a couple of them definitely still use them.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Gave mine bottles of Crown Royal. They were like
zevo Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I have ten guys in my wedding. I got them a mag lite flashlight each engraved. I thought t was a pretty cool gft.
eball Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I gave my guys leather shaving kits. I know at least a couple of them definitely still use them. How the hell do you shave with leather?
drnykterstein Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I got a nice pocket knife for the last wedding I was in. I was very happy with that one.
sweetbaboo Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 at the last wedding I was in, I got a swiss army card http://www.swissarmy.com/MultiTools/Pages/...duct=53321& great gift...I carry it everywhere I think the best gifts are the functional ones. They'll never forget where it came from as it will always be in use. Another friend of mine went unique and got me us all throwing stars...I've thrown it once or twice when I first got it. Now it just sits in a drawer.
boomerjamhead Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I got a nice pocket knife for the last wedding I was in. I was very happy with that one. This is absolutely the way to go.
theesir Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I gave my Groomsman (and myself) Leatherman tools. To this day 2 of them carry them on their belts wherever they go. They can be monogramed as well. Give a gift that they will have for a lifetime.
stevestojan Posted July 25, 2008 Author Posted July 25, 2008 Do your groomsmen have any common interests? Since there are 7 of them, the only three things everyone has in common is Drinking, The Bills, and The Sabres. Thanks for the advice so far guys. The pocket knife idea does seem pretty nice. I looked at Zippos as well, but fortunately, no one in the group (including myself!!) smoke anymore
Just Jack Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Since there are 7 of them, the only three things everyone has in common is Drinking, The Bills, and The Sabres. Shot glasses, 99 cents each
