Hey guys! I know there probably has been several posts about it, but at that time we weren't really thinking about it...FI is having difficulty with coming up with gift ideas for his groomsmen...they are all quite different in taste...FI has been throwing around ideas for watches, but watches are personal in taste to me...What are you guys doing and for MGs, what did your DHs do for their groomsmen?
TIA

    Cufflinks for the 4 of them who probably don't have nice cufflinks already, a tie for the one who already has too many nice cufflinks :)

    I feel your pain though because boys are so much more practical than girls -- they already have a lot of the basics, and if they've been in bridal parties before they probably have some of the stuff you can have too much of (my husband already has a jersey from his favorite team and a flask and such from being in wedding parties).  So we tried to go for things that at the very least are things that grown up boys tend to need more than one of.

    we are getting their ties (mostly b/c i want them to all be different, but cohesive) and then FI is getting them these whiskey stones:

    We did engraved flasks ($20) from orientaltrading.com.  My FI is paying for their tux rentals as the gift (very practical).

    We got them all tux shirts that can double as regular suit/button down shirt---something to do with the buttons. We got the sleeves monogrammed w/their initials.

    Our groomsmen are FI's nephews, who are teenagers.  We got them good sunglasses (forgot which brand) - but a good pair for around $100 a pair.  We firgured they would use them and its something they would not buy for themselves at this stage in their lives.  Most guys love a good pair of sunglasses.
