Creative Groomsmen Gift Ideas

Often gifts are exchanged not just between the bride and groom but are presented to the guests, bridesmaids, groomsmen and all the people present at the wedding. Beautiful diamond earrings for the bride, a pair of studded cufflinks for the groom, and many such interesting wedding party gifts can make the wedding day extra special not just for the happy couple but also for the people at the wedding. When buying presents for men just remember the old adage 'boys like toys', meaning get them something new and shiny which is uncommon. You can choose presents that suit your guy's personality. Planning a wedding isn't easy and the tasks get burdening when you start thinking of creative groomsmen gift ideas. One of the ways to come up with good gifts is to first allocate a budget for the gift. Another way is to directly talk to the guy and subtly lead the conversation in such a way that he unwittingly reveals what he likes.
Personalized Gift Basket: If you want to give a personal touch to the wedding gift, make a gift basket containing two-three things. Personalized towels is one good option. You can choose contrast color towels with the couple's name or photo on it. If you do not like the idea of contrast colors, you can choose the couple's favorite colors or the classic blue and pink. Another thing that you can add to the basket is bath beads, they are colorful as well as useful. Gone are the days when women preferred men with beards, stubble and hairy chests. These days women expect their men to be well-groomed. So, you can give the groom a grooming kit, which has things like shampoo, shave gel, shaking kit, cologne, etc. as wedding party gift. When it comes to clothes, women start shopping for their bridal shower, wedding and honeymoon outfits, well in advance. However, men being laid back creatures, might not even have enough clothes to last their honeymoon! So, if you are a friend or sibling of the groom, gift him some flattering designer clothes. Wedding gifts for the groom can include a pair of nice cufflinks, tie or bookends and watches as well. Try and personalize the gifts for the couple. In case you are looking for gifts that the couple can enjoy together, you can gift them home accessories like coffee makers, barbeque grill, music systems, or other appliances that the couple can incorporate in their house. As for the gifts exchanged between the couple - it could be anything - be it a honeymoon at a great destination, diamonds, a brand new car, an electronic gadget or even a self-written poem. It is always the feeling behind the gift that counts.
Most men are attracted to technology like bees to flowers, on your wedding get the groomsmen a gadget. Some of the things that you could choose from are, night light coasters, MP3 player, bluetooth headphones, etc. You can also get him fun gadgets like a pedometer which tells how many steps you have taken or a watch that tells you the time from around the world. Other things under this category are laptop coolers, musical cigarette lighter, night vision goggles, etc. One of the gifts that you could get the groomsmen is an office shirt in light colors like beige or sea blue. If he wears a tie to work get him one that complements his dressing style and gift wrap it with a short thank you note. Nowadays you also get personalized T-Shirts, get him one that says 'Groomsman'. If you live in a cold region you also have the option of getting him a scarf or a sweater. Nothing can celebrate an occasion, specially wedding, better than sparkling wine and champagne! So you can gift them a set of three wines and champagne. There are several types of wines and champagnes so look for the best ones, you can take help of a wine expert. Gym Membership: This is one of the wedding gift ideas for groom. You can gift them a year's or six month's gym membership. What can be a better way to pray for their health and wellness? And exercising together will be fun for them! This idea will also serve as one of the wedding gift ideas for parents.
