Just wondering:

1. For those of you who are married, what did you give to your groomsmen as a gift?

2. For those of you in a wedding as a groomsman, what did the groom give you as a gift?

I gave all my groomsmen beer steins with their University logo on it. 3 Purdue ones and 1 Texas one. We got the ring bearer a bunch of fishing tackle and new tackle box.

My groomsmen had different interests, so I got them different gifts. Two were avid drinkers, so I bought them engraved pitchers + monogrammed glasses. One just started golfing, and we'd been golfing together, so I got him an embroidered 12-can cooler that attaches to his golf bag. I filled it with assorted golf stuff - balls, tees, etc. The fourth I got an engraved leatherman.

When I was a groomsman: I received Bookers Bourbon.

When I ease the groom: I gave Sword Kilt pins. We had a celtic style wedding, so they were an appropriate reminder.

I decided to get stuff that each guy was interested in. I bought my middle-school aged cousin his favorite baseball player's jersey. I bought my climbing partner a beefy gift cert to the rock gym. I got my brother one of those old-school video game sets.

I gave my 3 groomsmen framed pictures I'd taken when we were together. One was a picture of my friend playing basketball, one was a picture of the moon & mountains from the guy's vacation condo, and the other was an almost abstract picture of never-ending mountain ranges taken in the vicinity of the other guy's home.
