How should I know what kind of gift to give my groomsmen?

How to Relieve the Stress of Groomsmen Gift Shopping

Not everyone is born to shop. Society has built a stereotypical scenario generalizing that all women love to shop and all men despite it. The reality is probably more of an equal split. Whether you love to shop or not, if you're getting married it's time to think of wedding gifts for groomsmen.

Bridesmaids gifts and groomsmen gifts have a few things in common:

  1. They're both a mandatory courtesy for the bride and groom.
  2. Trying to decide on the type of gift can wreak havoc on the nervous system.
  3. Couples continue to wonder how much to spend on gifts for groomsmen.

These days, people are shying away from exorbitant weddings, opting to put their hard-earned money into a new home, savings, or to enjoy themselves on a grand trip. Once a couple sets a strict wedding budget, it sometimes becomes necessary to come up with unique groomsmen gifts.

Beware! If your creative groomsmen gifts involve the offer to wash his car or mow his lawn once a month for a year, be prepared to deliver. Remember, you're getting married and you'll have your own responsibilities. Instead, of getting that creative, pounce on deep discounts when you find them.

Ask your groomsmen what kind of groomsmen gifts they'd like to have. After the joke about wanting a Hummer, you'll be surprised at the great ideas they'll give you. At first, it might feel like giving up a secret, but face it...your groomsmen are probably pretty sure you're going to buy them a groomsmen gift. Ask the question and relieve some of your pre-wedding shopping stress.
