My DF wants to get his groomsmen something that they will keep and use. He also told me about some friend of his Dad's who had this friend who got a pistol as a groomsmens gift from a friend who could afford it in the '80's. Good Luck with that! Any way, what, besides flasks, and travel/manicure kits have you seen as memorable G2G gifts? TIA!

We bought them mignon faget fleur de lis cufflinks and Tiffany beer glasses and got them monogrammed.

Someday someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked with anyone else....

A nice tie (not necessarily the one they are wearing in the wedding) from a line like Vineyard Vines or Southern Proper.

Personalized coolers filled with beer

I am a fan of monogrammed items, so I think there are some good ideas on this site:

We are going to do survival kits similar to one of these...not sure which yet, along with a flask.

We're getting each of the guys nerdy cufflinks. I ordered a fantastic pair that look like NES controllers for FI when he got his Masters degree, and he loves them. I sent the shop link to all the guys and told them to pick out the ones they like best. Some are getting Xbox controllers, some are getting Storm Troopers, etc. I'm definitely in the "Cufflinks should be fun, not boring" camp. :)

We did travel coffee mugs with their names engraved on it. The suggestion came from our best man's wife, and I know he actually uses it.
