I really splurged and spent around $200 for my BMs since I only have 4 and they are very close to me. (MY MOH is my sister in law, my FSIL, my cousin and my niece)
FH has six groomsen so we don't want to spend $200 -- but we don't want to seem like we cheapend out on their gifts....How much is enough? $100?
What is a good gift? I was thinking maybe a Coach wallet....any other useful but nice ideas?
$100 is plenty - more than enough for a nice gift. Coach wallets are a great idea - it's something the guys wouldn't buy for themselves, but will definitely use. We're going to get our guys Cross pen and pencil sets, and have them engraved with their initials. A couple of other ideas are: -swiss army knives -a gift card to their favorite store (best buy, circ. city, their fave restaurant) -tiffany's cufflinks -jerseys -tickets to a sporting event (have your guy go with the boys as an outing)
Ok- sit down. I spent about 1k on each girl (I had 3) and about 200 on each groomsmen. Does that seem fair? NO! Well, men don't wear jewelry, get thier hair and nails done, pay cash money for thier tux and buy thier own shoes. So sufficed to say- I don't think spending 100 each is being cheap at all. The women do and spend much more than the men.

i agree 100%...women do so much more and spend so much more on weddings then the groomsmen...I think $100 is just fine..
