best man, groomsmen and fathers gifts
What's everyone getting their best man, groomsmen and dads for their gifts? To do my girls was a piece of cake but stuck on the guys. My fiance is of no help with this one. I don't want something cheap looking for them. I'd like something meaningful. Any ideas?

I'm thinking of doing oakley sunglasses for the groomsmen/best man. Not sure what else will go with it. No clue for the fathers gifts.

For the guys we are getting them engraves zippo lighters cause they all smoke and a Visa giftcard. I have no clue what to get my dad but I think I might get him and my mom a combo gift like a certificate to their favorite restaurant.

We got the bestman a personalized man cave sign - its really cool and I know he is going to love it. We also got him a flask with a 1/2 pint of his fav liquor.

Re: best man, groomsmen and fathers gifts
My fiance' put together an Etsy store where he is selling cufflinks made from sports player's jerseys.He is a big sports fan & wanted to do something special for his Best Man and came up with this unique idea and decided to put together an Etsy store to offer them to others!
He can always try and find specific favorite players if they are not listed.
Check out the store if you are still looking for gift ideas for your bridal party/Fathers, etc.

We got the groomsmen 'boot' glasses to drink out of and probably personalized cufflinks. FH is also picking up 6 packs of their favorite beer for them. I want to get both the BM's and the GM's sunglasses for pictures. HTH!

I need ideas! I still need to pick a gift for FFIL, 2 FOB (Stepdad & Dad), SOB (stepmom of bride),possible FH's Aunt, Ushers. So many things and NO ideas left!

We are getting married at a country club with a golf course, and FH's number one request was to golf with his boys the morning of. So, he will be getting them a golf outing for the day (About $70 each), a small set of golf balls and tees, and a six pack of beer. Our idea is to put it all in small dollar store coolers. We were thinking of 'upgrading' the best mans gift from beer to a flask.NOT sure at all what to do for the dads, but I think it will be more so coupled with the moms (maybe a weekend away? an expensive dinner out?) If they also get something different, it will be something very very small, more for sentimental purposes.

I was concerned about this as well but I have recently decided towash my hands of it. FH has chosen (but not yet purchased) leathermen. It's certainly not what I was thinking, not that I was thinking much of anything, but still. It's one less thing on my to do list and to stress over. I know that what I've gotten and still plan on getting my girls is a bit more expensive than the leathermen alone but I look at it this way: 1. my girls will probably spend more time and money doing things for me (shower, bachelorette, favors, etc.) 2. FH may still either choose something else completely or get something in addition to the leathermen. I wouldn't stress, put it on him.

A boar brush shaving kit!! I ordered one from soaptopia.com for my brother one year and its great!!! I think it's a bit better than the standard drinking gifts and its really useful!! They also sell them on Etsy for less.You can put them in a men's overnight pouch too!
