Spinoff to $$ Bridesmaid post – GM $$$

How much is FH planning on spending on each of his groomsmen???

Re: Spinoff to $$ Bridesmaid post – GM $$$

about $25 - FH has never gotten more than that for being in a BP before, so we didn't think it was necessary to spend more.

FH is buying each GM a watch and will be buying a watch that is a little bit nicer on his BM and each guy will also get the gift certificate that i bought for each of my BM's from restaurant.com (since they are all married anyway)

a bride on here had posted about cigar humidors and i mentioned the idea to my FH because he has gotten really into cigars and he LOVED the idea... we found a kit that includes the humidor, a single cigar carrying case, lighter, cutter, and 3 cigar ashtray- which i think was $65-70 so that is likely how much he will be spending

I believe we spent about $90 on each GMs and he is still deciding on something extra to get the Best Man

FH was going to go to the Movado outlet to get his GMs ESQ Movado watches. He wanted to spend about $200 per each....but I love the idea of doing cigars and sunglasses so we'll see how much we can get the watches for.

Re: Spinoff to $$ Bridesmaid post – GM $$$

I think we spent about $30 tops for each. We really don't have the extra $$$ to be buying anything more than that.

Re: Spinoff to $$ Bridesmaid post – GM $$$

We're spending about $130 on each groomsmen. We are most likely getting them Kodak Playsport pocket camcorders.

Re: Spinoff to $$ Bridesmaid post – GM $$$

FH spent about 50 on each GM, and 150 on his best man

everyone is getting a personalized flask with a ciggarette/money compartment built in, and a bottle of their favorite liqour to go along.

we got his BM a $100 gift certificate to his favorite sushi place as well.

FH spent like $40 on the BM - got him a really nice burberry watch.

The rest of the GM are getting watches too, probably around the $150-$200 range.

*crashing*

we are psending on average $125 per person.. we are getting the GM personalized jerseys from their favorite sports teams with thier last names on the back (some sports are more than others!).. they are going to bring them the day of to take pics before they leave for the church...they are all guys guys and don't wear watches or anything like that so it was hard to think of something, but the FH suggested this and really loves the idea.

we also just ordered personalized 2 pilsner glasses for each guy.

GL!

my fh has 10 gm so he is just getting them 20 dollar tickets to a bball game

Re: Spinoff to $$ Bridesmaid post – GM $$$

I'd estimate around $125 per GM. He got them each a bottle of Scotch that was made the year each GM was born. Some were pricier than others. He is also giving them blue striped Paul Smith socks to wear day of (FH will be wearing rainbow striped ones, they're not tacky trust me!) so that can look cute if you see their socks!!

We went to the Movado outlet during a huge sale (they have them like 4 times a year) and got ESQ watches for $100 for the GM's that were originally marked for $500
