GM presents?????? Post ideas please!

Original post by MrsD71208

I'm really confused as to what we should get the GM....guys are always so hard to shop for! We have one idea, but that's it! Can you girls share your ideas with me please? I won't be back on until after work (around 3:15ish), but know that you will post anyway lol

I like the duffle bag idea too. We were thinking monogrammed cufflinks or money clips...

My friend did this so I can't steal it but maybe you girls can....my friend gave the guys all Ugg slippers! It was great! my FH loved them! They had the guys feet sizes when they got fitted for the tux. I thought it was such a practicle and fun gift!

I got the guys coach money clips and I'm debating between a bottle of cologne or a bottle of liquor? Is that cheesy and not enough or do u think it's ok?

Here is something we are thinking about.

It's called a Grand Band. It's similar to a money clip. It holds money, credit cards, etc.

Here's a website for it:

Fortunoff also sells them.


That's pretty cool!

It's not an easy task to choose once and for all! I'm not a fan of buying flasks or liquor (just my personal preference, but if that's what you are doing or like don't be offended) and don't want to do a certificate. Why are guys so hard to shop for? lol

We bought them Ralph Lauren wallets and we're going to put giftcards in them.

We're probably going to do Swiss Cards, which is like a flat swiss army knife that looks like a credit card and fits in your wallet. We may even do it for the bridesmaids too.

I'm all for useful things--FH has a lot of useless things he's received as a GM that he has never used.

Here are some possible ideas FH and I are thinking about.

Ties that go with the tux
Cufflinks
Money clips
Watches

We don't know yet either. FH has already been in alot of his GMs weddings so he's already gotten (and so have his GMs) the cufflinks, the army knife, the shaving kit, the flask, the beer stein, the engraved zippo and cigar w/cutter, the money clip, etc. He's gotten it all already.

We're definitely going to give each a bottle of booze, since they're all big partiers and honestly that what they'll like, so why not thank them with something that they will enjoy. But we need to pick something else to go with it. Wallets and watches are out. We're both at a loss.

with a bottle of alcohol i think a box of cigars would go nice...thats if they like it. FH's friends are big into scotch and cigars so he was thinking of that along with the tie

We did monogramed duffel bags from Eddie Bauer and they use them ALOT!!

My back up idea was monogramed bath robes but 2 of our guys live in really warm states so that wouldnt have been too useful for them. LOL



We're doing monogram duffel bags too!!! Either from LL BEan, Lands End or Eddie Bauer
