Whose gifts are you spending more on?

I'm getting jewelry for the bridesmaids to wear at the wedding which total cost about $70 each. I'm kind of lost as to what to get the groomsmen. I've seen some nice things but they are so much cheaper- engravable Chopsticks, Beer Mugs, Money Clips.

I probably would think to spend more on my bridesmaids, because they will love what I get them and boys don't care as much!

i believe in spending more on bridesmaids because their dressesusally costs more than renting a tux- there are two parties to throw - show and bachlorette instead of just one bachelor party - plus they have to pay for hair, makeup and dyable shoes

this is true- it is cheaper to be a guy. i feel a little bad though because one of the groomsmen is my friend. i think he would love the chopsticks though and maybe a nice frame.

Probably my BMs, although I don't know what the GMs will get- I'm leaving that up to FH...

We spent more on the bridesmaids than the groomsmen....the BM's just have a more involved job - they had the shower, and their dresses, hair and makeup, shoes.......the Bachelorette party!

the groomsmen got measured for and rented a tux, which came with matching shoes and accessories.....and took DH out for a bachellor party.

Originally I was going to leave the GM gift up to FH but I think he needs a little direction.
