Are you thinking, what do I get my groomsmen...?
Groomsmen gifts are the perfect way for you to acknowledge your closest boys without having to say it. Because we all know how much men love to share there feelings (cough,cough, throat clear, "my eyes are just itch, I'm not crying"). Let's be honest for a second, most guys are not great planners. So when it comes to getting gifts for the groomsmen, us guys are most likely to do something impulsive.
The first question when trying to decide on gift ideas is, How much should I spend?
After doing much research, the most common answer is between 10-25% of what you have asked them to spend on your wedding. So if they are spending $400, the groomsmen gift should be priced at $40 - $100.
Here are the top 7 groomsmen ideas that I found that weren't to cheesy and that the guys would be excited to receive. A quick note, if you want to be unique stay away from the dress socks. It my opinion it is way to over done and really not that special.
1. CANVAS & LEATHER DUFFEL BAG
Every man can use a nice bag for weekends or travel. Find a bag that combines the perfect balance of class and style. You can even pack the bag with a few extra gifts to deepen the gift and acknowledgement experience.
Price: $59.99

2. .50 CALIBER BULLET BOTTLE OPENER
Most guys have a fascination with guns. We had toy guns growing up and/or were addicted to Call of Duty in our late teens and early 20's. Nothing is more bad ass than a .50 caliber bullet that can open your drinks.
Price: $29.99

3. THE BROMAN GROOMSMEN GIFT SET
A classy flask, cool looking lighter, 2 shot glasses, and a bullet key chain...need I say more. Flasks come in handy to carry around with your favorite sipper for the cold nights or stressful days. Key chains are typically boring, this one stands out.
Price: $129.99

4. BLACK STEEL POCKET KNIFE
Everyone needs a knife but rarely will buy one. It looks cool and is essential for a zombie apocalypse. The wood handle compliments the sophisticated black steel blade. The engraving adds the perfect touch of personalization. Great multi-purpose gift.
Price: $3499

5. Custom Whiskey Decanter with Global Bottle Lid, 4 Whiskey Glasses in a Wood Box
Make your guys feel like a baller with a nice decanter. I would personally choose to stay away from the set with the glasses as most guys aren't short on glasses and when they just receive a decanter, the focus really becomes the one special item.
Price: $129.99

6. Black Bamboo Wooden Watch
Again to my point of men having a fascination with guns, let your boys take shots out of a Dirty Harry style shot glass. These shot glasses will be something they will always get a kick out of.
Price: $44.99

7. FAVORITE SCOTCH OR WHISKEY
Scotch screams class! Here is your chance to let your boys know that you have been paying attention to the drinks they enjoy or you can select a style that reflects there personality. Scotch can also be very expensive so don't think in any way the it is a cost effective option.
Price: $40 - $250 per bottle
CONCLUSION
You know your groomsmen best, follow your instinct with a little heart and they will love whatever the gift you give. Hopefully some of these suggestions will make it a little easier for you and inspire some unique ideas for you to shine with your closest guys.
Please share below your gift ideas and thoughts. I would love to know more about how the gifting experience went.
Cheers,
