    Just wondering what everyone's FI is getthing his groomsmen...? My FI is having a hard time trying to figure it out, so any ideas would be helpful! Just not anything alcohol related because one of his groomsmen is a recovering alcoholic...

    Thanks!

    My FI is planning to give money clips. Watches and cuff clips (I don't know what they are called) would also be nice.

    THANK YOU for posting this - - my FH is totally in a bind as well and we too don't want anything alcohol related. We wanted to do the custom Bobble Heads but they're quite pricey once said and done.  Then he was going to gift two of the guys custom golf balls, two of them cuff links, and two of them tickets to baseball games in their home town. 

    MORE IDEAS ARE BEYOND WELCOME LaughingLaughing As I hop on this thread too, LOL

    We went to Things Remembered (original I know) and bought a cigar kit which had a clip a flask and a cigar holder for the best man (also his brother) and had it engraved with his initials and "Best Man Today, Brothers for Life". For the two other groomsman we did pocket knives with their initials engraved on them.

    For the bestman, we got him an engraved flask set. (got it off Ebay and had engraved at Things Remembered). For the rest of the bridal party, most are under 21. So we got them a multi-tool thing and a good, small LED Flashlight. We put them in wood gift boxes, painted them orange, and tied a brown ribbon around it. They are not super expensive or fancy, but it's the best that we could come up with.

    I'm doing the cigar / flask thing so my gifts wouldn't work for you - but I do love the idea of Flip cameras or watches.

    We did Leathermans.  The WAVE to be specific, but there are also some less expensive options

    We got each groomsman a set of personalized coasters, and the best man got a matching pub sign.  They're from http://www.groomsmen.com/c/coaster.html

    letter operners for both groomsmen and bridesmaids.

    They fit with our theme and color scheme, also.  If you don't want to go with that, they have a lot of other cool stuff there that might work!

    I think that we are going to do personalized decanters. They all, FI included, love their Jack Daniel's.  My friend for her wedding, gave personalized hanging toiletry bags from redenvelope.com and Tervis Tumblers with their favorite team.

    @Neele: My fiance is doing flasks, but he was in a wedding where they gave them backpack coolers for their drinks on the beach, water and pop and stuff and in the backpack it had an MP3 hookup and speakers.
