3 Tips For Choosing the Perfect Groomsmen Gift

Most grooms make the mistake of giving each of their groomsmen the same gift, albeit engraved. Personalization might be the norm because it's easier and keeps things equal but it doesn't consider the fact that your groomsmen have varied personalities and interests. One size may not fit all. A groomsmen gift should reflect their diverse individual interests even if it takes a little more thought.

This article is for guys who are looking for the perfect groomsmen gift. Throw out everything you have heard up til now and consider these three essential tips for picking a winning gift for your groomsmen:

1.    Individualize vs Personalize - most grooms make the mistake of giving each of their groomsmen the same gift, albeit engraved. Personalization might be the norm because it is easier and keeps things equal but it does not consider the fact that your groomsmen have varied personalities and interests. One size may not fit all. A groomsmen gift should reflect their diverse individual interests even if it takes a little more thought.

2.    Celebrate Memories - it is hard to image how engraved flasks or cuff links celebrate memories. Your groomsmen are your groomsmen for a reason - they are tied to you and probably each other by memorable experiences. Gifts for groomsmen should somehow capture these memories.

3.    Lasting - Some grooms want to just check the box so take the boring way out by selecting pocket knives or money clips. Let us face it, 98% of groomsmen gifts will never see the light of day again and that same 98% would not shed a tear if they mistakenly left the gift behind.

You can pour though the multitude of websites that can overwhelm you with gift ideas and gift advice. So let me try to cut through some of the clutter with a few personal observations of gift ideas that definitely do not cut it and a few of my personal favorites:

Blah Gifts
1.    Flasks

5.    Poker chips
