Bridal party favours

mru

We're due to get married in September this year, and when working through the list of task assigned to me I noticed that I haven't put any thought into what I'm going to get the Best Man and Groomsman (for a bridal party favour). A friend of mine got his Bestman & Groosmen sun glasses, which is one idea - but when I googled "bridal party favours men" all I get is golf ball sets, beer tankards and engraved office stationary!

Just wondering if anyone would like to share what they got their Bestman & Groomsmen for their wedding.

Strippers and lots of them

In all seriousness maybe a nice watch or something with an engraving?

Actually that brings me onto another question I should've asked - just how much should you be spending on gifts? You could probably get a decent set of sunglasses on ebay for less that €50, but a good watch with an engraving sounds a bit expensive to me I'm not trying to be cheap or anything, it's just that the wedding itself is already costing us quite a bit...

Sorry, was just something that happened at a wedding I was at but there was only 1 best man and 1 bridesmaid. Sunglasses are good,also cufflinks, hipflasks etc. €50 is a grand amount.

Actually the hipflask idea is a pretty good one. I might have a look and see how much they cost. Thank mate.

Thanks tillygirl, this would actually suit one of the groomsmen down to the ground. I'll prob get a hipflask for the bestman and then the cufflink set for one of the groomsmen.
