subject: Best man gifts [print this page] Best man gifts are always tricky to find, but it's very important to honour the man who has one of the most important jobs at your wedding. There are, thanks to the increase in online sales, more possibilities than ever before, but finding that perfect fit always takes a little time.
A great starting point is the traditional cuff links; something eternally useful, your best man will really appreciate this gift, especially if you can personalise them in a way that is new and original. It is possible to get them engraved, as well as the option to purchase some with the standard messages on (like Best Man', or Thank you'). They will serve as a memento for your special day and can be used over and over again. Other traditional best man gifts include hip flasks and cigar holders, both of which are ideal if the wedding is formal.
For a novelty present, there are huge varieties to choose from, with some of the best being Best Man' socks, designed to be worn on the big day, or even a set of BBQ tools, amusingly stored like golf clubs in a golfing bag! This is perfect for a best man with interests in food or sport. Best man gifts should obviously take into account any specific likes or dislikes, and probably the best person to judge that is the groom himself.
There are presents out there suited to food lovers, keen sportsmen, wine buffs and even travellers, so you're certain to find the ideal gift that is both decorative and functional. This dual-purpose is extra important for the best man, as a trinket, although attractive looking, will not be as well-received as a mini tool kit, for example. Thanks to modern design, many objects designed with a specific intention can also be appealing.
Wrapping of best man gifts can also be a stumbling block, so make sure that you use wrapping paper that follows the overall theme of your wedding, and coordinates well with the colour scheme. This is equally true of all presents to any member of the wedding party. A little extra touch, like a ribbon, bow or even a label, is certain not to go unnoticed.
You could always think about buying a few similar gifts for all the men in the wedding party, as this will save you a lot of effort in individually selecting the perfect present. For example, glasses or tankards will always be a popular choice and will be great, not only as best man gifts, but also as tokens for ushers and fathers of the bride and groom. This type of bulk-buying is an excellent cost-effective solution, and as long as they differ slightly (i.e. in terms of colour or inscription), everyone's sure to be completely satisfied.
Whatever your best man's personality, there's no doubt that you'll find perfect best man gifts, especially with the number of websites specifically devoted to wedding gifts for those special people. Maybe you can even persuade your husband-to-be to check them out for you!
