The Best Groomsmen Gifts

soiree-groomsmen

Earlier this week we shared some of our favorite gifts for your bridesmaids, but your groomsmen deserve some love too! Men are famously hard to shop for, so we’ve scoured the market find something for everyone from the dapper gentleman to tech guru in our roundup below. And of course as all of your groomsmen have their own style, think of the suggestions below as shopping categories… such as a fashion accessory for your stylish friend, or a great bluetooth speaker for your best man that loves music. And just as we mentioned for your bridesmaids, combining these would create one stellar gift package for the groomsmen that go above and beyond! Photo above by Liz Banfield.

1. A Dopp kit would be a great gift for groomsmen traveling to a destination wedding. What a stylish way to keep all of their essentials organized! $40 at Tommy Hilfiger; 2. This Stelle bluetooth speaker seamlessly blends into any decor style, and you can easily move it to follow the party. $300 at Amazon; 3. Cuff links are a classic choice, and these by Richard James feel more fashion-forward. $285 from Mr. Porter; 4. We love the idea of pairing your groomsman’s drink of choice with a Mad Men style decanter for a unique gift that they can use again and again. Hudson Baby Bourbon Whiskey for $43 and Reed and Barton Decanter for $125; 5. Last but not least is a stylish bow tie that they could wear to the wedding and many events after. This one from Barney’s is especially stylish. Available for $85.

The Best Bridesmaid Gifts

Soiree wedding bridesmaids

There’s a lot that goes into your wedding day, and we know as much as you do that you couldn’t do it without the support and love of your bridesmaids. They are there for bridal showers, late night phone calls, and moral support along with their many other roles leading up to your wedding, so why not show them how grateful you are with a small token of your appreciation. As with any gift, your budget and relationship with your bridesmaids will help you find the right thing, but we’ve gathered up some of our favorites here, and we’re pretty sure you can’t go wrong. And for the bridesmaids that have really gone above and beyond, why not combine them all for an amazing gift basket! Photo above by Corbin Gurkin.

1. The “Social Butterfly” notebook would be a great option for your maid of honor who has been keeping track of your schedule and social obligations during this busy time. $45 from Sloane Stationery; 2. A bouquet of flowers is always a lovely way to say thank you, and these come fresh from the farm meaning they last longer and are more reasonably priced. Starting at $40 from The Bouqs Co; 3. A beautiful pair of earrings is a great way to show gratitude, and we love that these by Shashi have a classic feel but are still fashion-forward. $44 from Shopbop. 4. You can’t go wrong with a candle, especially not one from Diptyque. The Roses scent has always been a favorite.  $30-60 from Nordstrom; 5. This two-sided frame would be a great way to showcase a photo of you and your bridesmaid from your wedding day, and one from the two of you in college, or during childhood on the other. $150 from Tory Burch.
