I am having my brother as my best man, my best friend, her cousin and her brother as the other groomsman.
My brother and best freind are easy because I know their personalities are much like my own. Her cousin and brother are not the same (not even really close).
I have plenty of time to decide but I am not sure if I should go with simuliar gifts for everybody or different. I am not even sure what would be a 'good gift.'

Re: Groomsman Gifts
The watch is the most common gift. All of the wedding party's I have been in I always got a watch. For my party I was thinking about doing something else, maybe a gold chain or an engraved wrist chain. I am not sure yet but it would be nice to give them something that they can wear the day of the wedding.

Re: Groomsman Gifts
I've gotten a money clip and cufflinks. But those were things I've had before and they knew I would use.
I was in a party where everyone got the same thing except the best man and another party where everyone got different things...
I guess the only common thing was the best man got something different and a little more expensive.

Re: Groomsman Gifts
I personally am going to get each of my men different gifts that fit their lifestyles and or character. I feel it warrants a sentiment that I have a Brotherly and or friendship connection to each of them . But that's just me. -Bill

Re: Groomsman Gifts
sorry to interfere - but i wanted to suggest something
my brother gave the guys a Tiffany keychain personalized with their initials engraved on it ... i thought it was an awesome idea
This one guy I work with got a cigar cutter knife from his best friend. It's also a money clip. He swears it the best wedding gift he ever recieved.

Sorry to butt in but Things Remembered has some great gift ideas - cuff links, money clips, watches, etc. I posted a 20% off coupon code on 'brides helping brides' last week so do a search for 'things remembered coupon' and it should come up. If not, FM me! Good luck!

Re: Groomsman Gifts
I was thinking about doing the watch thing, but one of my groomsmen just got a watch a month ago for being the godfather of a mutual's friends baby. So now I have no clue what I will be getting them...
Sorry to jump onto the boys board but a friend of FH and I was just a groomsman and received what i think are really cool gifts. The groom signed him up for 6 months to both the Beer of the Month Club and the Wine of the Month club along with an Omaha Steak gift certificate.

Re: Groomsman Gifts
I gave my Brother (Bestman) an engraved Ipod mini ( the nano wasn't out yet), and the the rest of my groomsmen Ipod shuffles. They all love them.
