Hey lovely October Brides!

 I am having a hard time trying to find things for Groomsmen gifts that aren't very cliche. So far we have paracord survival bracelets and a survival knife for each guy and that is is. I'd like to get the gifts done soon but FI says "Don't worry, we have plenty of time for that." Ughhh!

What are you ladies getting your groomsmen?

    I'm leaving it up to FI and he's struggling too. He's looking at doing something personal for each guy (A watch for one, a good bottle of tequila for another, sports tickets for another, etc.)

    Groomsmen are hard becuase a lot of it is cliche and cheap looking (IMO). FI's friends don't want flasks or engraved beer mugs or any of that.

    FI is getting his engraved Buck Knives. They all hunt/fish/are outdoorsy so it works for them.

    I like the knife idea. We are going to do something personal for each guy, then also get an engraved flask because they are all pretty seasoned drinkers.

    All of FI's GMs are pretty big drinkers so it'll be alcohol themed for sure.

    Yeah...our guys are all big drinkers too, but they're very no-nonsense guys. They don't like anything "cute" or personalized. And FI doesn't like any of it either. So that makes his job significantly more difficult.

    FI is getting his guys pewter beer steins since they are all drinkers too. Personally I think they're cliche and cheap-looking but not my friends and not my call. I'm struggling with the girls gifts.

    I am doing my girls on my own and FI is doing the guys on his own.   FI is going to do something personal for each of them, they all have different interested, One really likes basketball, one football and one starwars, lol.  He just asked his 3rd and final groomsman a couple of days ago.
