Many brides and grooms go shopping for their gifts to their court together. They often set a budget that will be per person so that the cost of all these gifts does not exceed what they planned to spend. It is very common for the gifts given to bridesmaids and groomsmen to complement each other. This makes shopping easier and helps ensure that no one feels like someone else at the wedding for a better gift than then.
Since men and women do not always like the same types of gifts, they do not have to be exactly the same, but on the same line. For example, bridesmaids can end up with lovely engraved bracelets as a gift. For the groomsmen, the engraved cufflinks will be very elegant and appreciated.
Gift bags are very common these days as well. For bridesmaids, they can be filled with perfume, a toilet kit, body wash, locations and other similar products. For the groomsmen you can go with the same idea but change some of the products. Instead of perfuming a good cologne it works well. Make sure that the gifts you offer to men also have a masculine scent.
Travel bags are a great idea too. For the bridesmaids you can go with bags, purses, bags of cosmetics and beach bags. For the groomsmen, you can go with gym bags, shaving kits and even beach bags because men also love going to the beach. Barbecue grill sets can be a good option for wedding grooms if they are having a summer wedding.
Leather briefcases work well for both sexes. You can choose to have them personalized with initials or simply ordinary ones. Both your bridesmaids and your sponsors will receive a lot of use of them. Men seem to prefer standard colors, so make them black or brown. For women, although you can choose from a variety of other colors that you think they will like.
The personalized jewelers are also a good option. For bridesmaids you can get lovely designs or those made of silver. Having their names engraved on them in the script makes them very unique and beautiful. Some of them also play music. You can get jewelry boxes made for men too. They are often made of precious wood. This is a great place for men to wear their watches, cufflinks and other jewelry they own.
It can be fun to buy gifts for bridesmaids and groomsmen that complement each other. Most couples find that the cost of the items is the same price for each side. It also allows them to treat each of their friends and family members who are part of the wedding fairly. Some couples fear that doing this will restrict what they find for gifts, but that is simply not the case. Once you begin to explore your options, you will quickly see why.
