Great Alternatives to Groomsmen Boutonnieres

My brother's groomsmen gift by jobber99

Groomsmen can wear pocket squares, floral pocket squares, ribbon pins, stickpins with colored stones, personalized pins and matching ties on their tuxedos instead of boutonnieres. If corsages are for women, then boutonnieres are for men. Boutonnieres, commonly referred to as buttonholes, are small arrangements of flowers, ferns or greeneries pinned to the lapel, mostly on the left side of a suit or tuxedo of the gentlemen. Pinning a boutonniere is a tradition in weddings and an important part in wedding etiquette. But, there are couples who wanted to add a surprising pinch in their weddings by transforming certain traditions into something interesting and unique. Boutonnieres, for example, are one of the many things to alter in a wedding. Couples can choose whether or not they’ll let their groomsmen wear the pins or let them wear something entirely new. Rather than the usual buttonholes, your groomsmen could wear: Pocket squares Pocket square is a good idea for your groomsmen to wear instead of boutonnieres. They are still very classy and traditional just like the buttonholes. Pocket squares are actually small handkerchiefs tucked into the men’s suit or tuxedo preferably on the left breast pockets. You can choose from plain white handkerchiefs or you can also match with your bridesmaids’ dresses. Floral pocket squares Floral pocket squares are the more creative version of the regular pocket squares. Floral pocket squares are small arrangements of flowers or greeneries, but unlike boutonnieres, they are not pinned on the lapels of the suit. Instead, they are just neatly arranged or tucked in the left breast pocket. They bring elegance and color to the suit without pins that add holes to the fabric. Ribbon pins Ribbon pins are quite similar to boutonnieres but they are in a much simpler fashion because they don’t need other materials but only the ribbons and pins. Ribbons come in different colors thus you can choose to match them with the wedding theme or the dresses of your bridesmaids. Stickpins with colored stones Stickpins with colored stones are pretty much the same as the ribbon pins but ribbons are replaced by semi-precious stones. Groomsmen wearing these will look elegant and sophisticated. Personalized pins Personalized pins are definitely fun substitutes for groomsmen boutonnieres. You just need to order pins according to your groomsmen’s interest. This will add a new variety to any wedding. Matching ties If you really want to ditch the boutonnieres, pins or pocket squares, then just simply let your groomsmen wear matching colored ties to their partner’s dresses or to the wedding theme. It’s simple but the poise and elegance of the way your groomsmen look will still be the same.

What is the Appropriate Time to Give Groomsmen and Bridesmaid Gifts

Usher Gifts by kathleenchester

There is no such thing as the exact time to hand over your gifts to the groomsmen and bridesmaids. What matter most is how you gave them, which can be done during one of the following occasions: rehearsal dinner, bachelors or bachelorette party, bridesmaids’ luncheon, and anytime before the wedding.

There are no strict rules as to when the exact date and time is to hand over your gifts to your groomsmen. It’s a matter of perfect timing and the manner of presenting them; although, it would be ideal to give them during the following occasions:

Rehearsal dinner

Some couple find it perfect to give their presents during the rehearsal dinner where everybody is present. Various dates can be chosen, which ranges from 2 weeks to 1 day before the actual wedding day. At least during that time, you will have a chance to say a short message of thanks to all the participants who really shared their time in preparing for your big day.

Bachelors or bachelorette party

If you give out something that is naughty as a gift, better make it during the bachelors’ party or the bachelorette party where it is exclusive for the close friends of the groom and bride respectively.

Bridesmaids’ luncheon

The usual time to give out gifts to the bridesmaids is during brunch, luncheon, afternoon tea party, or during your spa day. You can write a brief message of thanks along with the gifts or say a short speech thanking everybody for their efforts. If you bring with you important ladies like your mom or future mom, have the honor to acknowledge their presence.

Anytime before the wedding

Since most of the gifts are usually chosen based on the personalities of your groomsmen and bridesmaids, it is almost possible that those things can be used during the wedding. Therefore, it is recommended to hand them over before the wedding day, so that you will be amazed how it suits them well when they use it on your wedding day.

How to give the presents

When giving the presents, a short message of appreciation must accompany the gifts to show how grateful you are for having them. You can say an individual message every time you hand a gift or you can distribute the gifts at one time, so that you just address the message to everybody. However, if you are the type who wants to have an intimate talk, you can approach one by one and thank him in private.

Do All Gifts for Groomsmen Have To Be Similar

Unique Groomsmen Gifts? by Okyne Medialab Inc

Personalized groomsmen’s gifts are considered the best gifts to show them how much you appreciate their efforts in taking part in your special day. Choosing diverse gifts can be done in many ways like: according to their favorite hobby, depending on the couple’s budget, deciding on the style of gifts, depending on the relationship, and by engraving their initials.

When choosing groomsmen’s gifts, it doesn’t have to be done in the traditional way just for the sake of giving one. It should be meaningful, something that can be cherished for a lifetime. When choosing the right gift, the following can be considered:

According to their favorite hobby

To show how thankful you are for his participation, you can show your gratitude by giving him a token of appreciation that symbolizes his unique personality. If he’s the kind of person who loves to drink a lot, you may choose a pilsner set that he can use during his drinking spree. You can also choose cigar case if he is the smoker type or a key chain if he is a car collector. You should know by heart the kind of personality each groomsman have to be able to decide on the perfect gift.

Depending on the couple’s budget

Check on your budget first before hopping from one mall to the other to search for gifts. Gift giving can be very costly especially if these are highly personalized. However if the budget needs to be stretched, you may opt to choose gifts of the same kind, but with different values. Anyway, its the thought that counts and not the amount. Several cheaper gift ideas are available like a mug, which come in different shapes, sizes and designs. This is still a unique way of choosing the perfect gift according to stature.

Deciding on the style of gifts

It doesn’t have to be costly; all it takes is your creativity. Decide on what kind of gift you want, whether fancy, funny or formal. If your close buddy is someone who gambles a lot, give him a replica of a poker set. This is a lot cheaper compared to a real one.

Depending on the relationship

Another factor to take into consideration when choosing a perfect groomsmen’s gift is the relationship established between the couple and the groom. Since this is your way of thanking the groom, it should be expressed in a way that the meaning is clearly conveyed.  Choose something that symbolizes bonds or lasting relationship.

Engraving their initials

The safest way to give a personalized gift is by putting their initials on the gift. This would give a more personal touch and would make it appear as if the gifts are very unique; hence, the recipient will value the gift more in return. It does not necessarily mean that the couple should give every groomsman a different gift since this would be very time-consuming. Aside from the effort factor, the budget will also be affected since different items have different prices.

Role of Bridesmaids and Groomsmen

Groomsmen Gifts - in progress by mandypage723

The participation of bridesmaids and groomsmen in the wedding serves different purposes namely: to ward off evil spirit, to protect the bride and the groom, to celebrate with the couple, to assist the bride and the groom, and to act as witnesses.

Wedding ceremony varies according to preference. Some wants it to be simple with few attendees while, others like it to be huge with long list of bridesmaids and groomsmen. Although this is optional, their presence is greatly appreciated because of the following essential roles they play:

Ward off evil spirit

During the early years, their presence during the wedding is much needed to ward off evil spirits, who might be present during the ceremony to spoil the event. It is their belief that by wearing the same attire as the bride and the groom, the evil spirit will be confused as to who the real bride and groom are.

Protect the bride and the groom

The history behind the participation of the bridesmaids and groomsmen started centuries ago during the Roman times. The best man protects the groom from the family of the bride who might come to steal the bride. The bridesmaid on the other hand, accompanies the bride as she travels to the place where his groom lives for the wedding ceremony.

Celebrate with the couple

One of the roles of the bridesmaids and groomsmen is to celebrate and share with the joys of the couple. Together they make a toast and cheer for a happy life ahead.

Assist the bride and the groom

To make the celebration smooth sailing, bridesmaids and groomsmen help in the preparation starting from the engagement party up to the very special day. They see to it that everything has been set prior to the commencement of the wedding ceremony. To be sure that all the visitors are assisted and well-served during the reception, the bridesmaids and the groomsmen must be there to oversee the flow. They are needed to accompany each guest to their seat.

Act as witnesses

During the ceremony, they serve as witnesses to the vows made by both the bride and the groom. Their presence during the exchange of “I dos” helps strengthen the love and trust of the couple because of their shared intentions to protect the couple.
