We gave the groomsmen and bridesmaids the same gift; a mug with a verse of scripture written on it. "We love Him because He First loved us. That verse, 1st John 4:19 simply means we are able to love God because He gave us the ability to love Him.
Without him waking us up and giving us the ability to love Him we would not be able to. If you don't want to personalize a gift you have thousands of options.
Many will not like the idea of giving the same gift but a gift to fit each person. If you decice to give a personalized groomsman gift to fit each friend your expenses could go up quite a bit.

We were all about saving as much as possible. If you want to spend more, take a close look at your budget. Try to identify where you have made cuts to see if you can shift some cash toward a more expensive groomsman gift. Of course if you have to get something really special by all means do that.
This is your wedding and you are in complete control. Exactly who do you invite to be a groomsman in you wedding? Just like the bridesmaids, It's easier to invite close friends to participate. I wanted my close frineds to be my groomsment for sure so thats what I did. I met most of my friends through various jobs and some through friends of friends.
They're all a really nice group of guys. Of course I had to ask my brother to be my best man. We are very close and talk long distance all the time. He was the only one I wanted to fill those shoes. He and his wife came out from Texas to participate in the wedding. I had not seen them for a few years so it meant a lot to me they were able to come and participate.
Seeing my brother again helped me get grounded to my roots again. It always helps to see family and to have their support. Allow your family to support you during your wedding. I truly have support from my brother and his wife. They are really cool people. What should I do for a bachelor party? Should I go hog wild? Every one will have a different situation to deal with.
I decided to go out to a nice dinner with my buddies. No, we didn't have strippers dancing on the table tops or a women popping out of a cakes. I just wanted to be with friends I care about and friends that care about me. We all went to a local restaurant. We talked, laughed and had a great time eating good food. That was enough for me.
Hope this article gives you some ideas on how to pick your groomsmen and what groomsmen gift to give. Ultimately it's your decision. Have a great time!
