You want to show the people in your wedding party that you appreciate them in a thoughtful way.
Groomsmen gifts can be especially tough. Many times, your groomsmen consist of a group of guys that are all totally different. You've got your soon to be brother in law that you are just sort of getting to know, your old college roommate that knows WAY too much, your brother who you can't image life without…. etc. They are all different ages, different stages of life, and all have different tastes and styles. It can be hard to purchase gifts that all fit a theme that everyone will enjoy.
One theme that works well for any dude is the gift of —grooming.
Here are our top 3 gift ideas:
#1 Barber Shop: give your dudes the experience of a relaxing and manly trip to the barber for a good ol' shave, fresh cut or maybe just a beard trim.
Cool spots like Razorbacks Barber Shop in Long Beach offer a variety of services. For $80 you can give your groomsmen the gift of a good haircut, shave and product. My recommendation - schedule appointments for all of you the morning of your wedding day, invite your photographer to come along and snap some shots while you all hang out. It's a great way to show your guys you appreciate them and also make sure they look extra sharp on the wedding day! (*don't forget to tip your barber*)
#2 Personalized Leather Travel Kit: time to throw out the zip-lock bag full of toiletries and grow up! This rugged and manly canvas travel bag has really nice leather trim and a stainless-steel medallion for monogram personalization.
This is the gift that keeps on giving. Your groomsmen will never need to purchase another travel kit as long as they live. And - anytime they go on a trip they will think of you and your wedding. The monogram detail is a really nice touch and will be sure to make them feel special. Plus - this gift has the two things that men always love - practicality and convenience. For only $49 - you can fill it with soaps and lotions and look like you spent a million!
Personalization with a 3 initial monogram (first name initial, last name initial, middle name initial)

#3 Bath and hygiene products: This can be your most cost effective way to go if you shop wisely.
Every time I go to check in on the groomsmen before the ceremony starts - it literally smells like an Axe Body Spray fumigation experiment. YIKES! Companies like Bath and Body Works has some great spa quality options by C.O. Bigelow in-store and on-line. The packaging looks super fancy and nice, but the price tag is very reasonable. You can get each guy an assortment of products and spend less than $50 each.
Our Favorites are the Elixir Black line. The bottles look cool and they smell great!
