We will be in touch
I want to give something different to the usual swiss army knife/leatherman/hip flask.
Any suggestions for gifts for the boys? (only one of them is a cyclist).
I got my best man a nice hip flask, had his initials engraved on it and filled it up with brandy.
[edit] didn't ready your post properly [/edit]
Could do with some photos of the bridesmaids in order to ascertain just how generous you'll need to be
When I was best man for my brother I had no idea a present was the norm, totally shocked me by buying me a really nice silver chain, which I now wear all the time and it reminds me of them, which is great.
A pack of decent cigars and one of those new Zippo lighters that uses gas not petrol?
Punternet gift voucher?
I gave my best man and ushers a hipflask full of single malt before the ceremony. I thought it was a nice idea and so did they, although half of them had polished off the contents of the hip flasks before the ceremony was finished!
i got some lovely cuflinks which i use every day for work, nice to remind me of a great day.
also a pic of a mountain i climbed with the groom
i gave mine a belt handmade from a bike tyre . He thought it was great 🙂
When did this tradition of buying stuff for ushers and best man start? They are your mates/relatives, and will undoubtedly be pleased to do it for no reward.
Get em nowt, weddings are expensive enough as it is.
i had two best men and bought them an ipod shuffle each, quite cheep, and something they'll use. went down quite well with them.
I got a pair of socks when i was an usher. Cheap ****er.
