I love gift giving. But not just any gift giving. I like giving meaningful gifts that will be appreciated, even if it means sometimes costing a little more. Getting more value for your money can mean getting something that will last a long time and be exactly what the other person would enjoy, instead of a gift that is cheaper and won't be used or appreciated. Here are some ideas for meaningful gifts for a groom on his wedding day, that aren't too expensive and will hit the spot.
The wedding day has always been synonymous with the bride, but it is an equally big and special day for the groom. Most weddings include a gift-giving ceremony between the bride and the groom. The groom will also receive many gifts from those who attend the party.
Choosing gifts for the groom is quite a challenge, especially if you don't want to spend too much on gifts. The main thing should be to make the gift meaningful, not exuberant. Therefore, even a small gift can have plenty of sentimental value to the groom.
The following are some gift ideas for the groom on his wedding day:
Customized Cufflinks
Most people associate personalized clothing and accessories with luxury and success; the wrong assumption they make is that it costs a lot to have customized items. The truth is that you can get personalized items at great prices if you know where to look.
Customized cufflinks are one item you can get that would make for a great and frugal wedding gift for the groom. You can engrave the groom's name on them or write a personal message. You can even do it in your handwriting, which makes it even more special.
Cologne
The sense of smell in people is quite strong, and a scent can initiate a memory trace in your mind by simply catching a whiff of it again. Therefore, a unique fragrance or cologne is an excellent idea for a groom's present on their wedding day.
You can get excellent perfumes at great prices, even from designer brands. Comme des Garcons parfum is an option for such a cologne. Find out the groom's taste and make an appropriate choice. The groom will use your gift for months, making it a great frugal gift for a wedding.
Etched Scotch Whiskey Decanter Bottle
If the groom is a whiskey man, several ideas would be perfect for their wedding day. One of the best ones is a scotch whiskey decanter bottle. The good news is that they are surprisingly cheap, and you can personalize them to make them unique for the groom.
The groom will use the scotch whisky decanter bottle for years to come, making it an outstanding frugal purchase. The groom can use it for drinks with the groomsmen after the ceremony for that special bottle of whiskey. I am sure he will appreciate the engraving on the box and bottle, which gives it a personal touch. His whiskey will taste better too.
Groom Wedding Survival Kit
The wedding day is stressful for the bride, but it is also very challenging for the groom. Therefore, you should get a groom's wedding survival kit for the groom. It is not only a fantastic gift but also a hilarious one that will get a laugh out of the groom.
Include things the groom will need during his wedding day like a water bottle, a handkerchief, liquor in a flask, and any other funny gifts the groom will appreciate. Try to strike a balance between functionality and humor.
Personalized Watch
If the groom is going to wear a watch on the wedding day, why not make the watch special? A personalized watch will make a fantastic, meaningful, and frugal gift for a wedding day. It costs less than you think and will remind him of you every time he checks the time.
The watch can have his name or initials inscribed on it. It could also have a message on the strap, such as a quote about marriage. The groom will certainly appreciate such a personal gift though it will cost you little.
To conclude, there are numerous ideas for gifts you can give the groom on their wedding day. Making it a frugal gift will not severely limit your options. The above ideas are just a starting point. Feel free to exercise your imagination while coming up with other ideas.
