Groom's Basket

I want to make up a cute little basket to give to fh on the wedding day with his gift. Im trying to come up with things he would 'need' that day...so far things like...
chapstick so his lips are soft for our first kiss
breath srpay so he has fresh breath during the vows
ugly socks incase of cold feet

what other ideas can you ladies think of! i want it to be cute and funny!
TIA

-- if you want to be tacky, you can put some honey because 'he's your honey'
-- advil so he can't fake a headache to get out of marriage
-- a comb so he looks as perfect as could be
-- a mini-bottle of his fave alcohol to calm the nerves
-- a pair of tighty whities in case he sh!ts his pants (sorry ... you told me to be silly so i took it to the next level)
-- eye drops so he can fake crying or ease alergies

that's all i've got for now ... ps: i love this basket idea ... i might have to steal the idea and get one too

ETA: how about also adding a small snack of sorts (granola bar or fruit or something)

i saw this extremely cute thing on etsy once... it was a pair of men's black dress socks and on the bottom one said 'cold' the other said 'feet' and it came with a cute note that said something along the lines of keeping your tootsies warm just in case lol

Re: Groom's Basket

here's what i want to add to the basket, and i'm going to write up a cute little reason for each thing...any other ideas?

Watch - to get you there on time
Chapstick – For smooth lips to kiss
Breath Spray – For fresh breath when saying your vows
Pepto Bismal – to keep your stomach calm
Socks – to avoid cold feet
Advil – To get rid of any stress headaches the day brings
Flask of Malibu – to calm any nerves
Game – to keep you and the boys entertained while waiting for the girls to get ready
Tissues – Just in case the emotions hit you
Visine – to get the red out (from the tears of joy)
Deodorant and Cologne– To keep you smelling fresh throughout the festivities
Tide-to-Go, Band-Aids and Sewing kit – Just in case!
Razors and Shaving Cream, styptic pencil – No beard burn during our kiss!
Shoe horn and Shoe shine wipes -
Cufflinks – To keep you snazzy
Lint Brush – keep the puppy hair off!
Bug Spray – outside on the water, you can keep this on hand for me!
Sunscreen – no sunburn in pictures
Duct Tape – Because it can fix anything
Directions to Thatched Cottage – so you find the right way
Snacks – no rumbling tummys
Umbrella – hopefully no showers!
Hand Sanitizer – greeting lots of family/friends, don't want to be sick for the hunnymoon!
