How to Award Your Best Man for a Job Well Done

How do you say thank you in more than words? Sometimes, you want to give a nice gift that people will remember. Your best man at your wedding is there because he's been there for you before.

Your best friend, your brother, you want to give them the perfect gift. It should be a reflection on the day, on your relationship and say something about them, as well.

Here are a few ideas for you to consider for your upcoming wedding.

Great Best Man Gift Ideas

Traditional gifts work just as well as something a bit unusual.

Timepieces

There are many ideas for timepieces to choose from.

Watches

Everyone can use a nice watch. You can get it engraved and even get them all matching for the best man and the groomsmen, as well. Engrave the date, their name, or a quote that means something special.

You can get modern watches, vintage types of watches or have fun with a theme of a popular superhero character that you both love.

Pocket watches are also nice and can be worn with casual wear or when they are dressed up for something formal.

Clocks

There are beautiful clocks available in many different styles. Find something they can hang on the wall, a table clock or vintage clocks that need winding up.

Accessories

Tie clips, cuff links, pocket squares, and hankies, and many types of jewelry are perfect gifts. Get matching bracelets with engraved messages so they will always remember the day.

Nice wallets, backpacks or attache cases are also nice. There are leatherbound notebooks and daytimers, to add that classy touch.

Think Sports

If your best man loves to play golf, get him some new golf clubs, a membership to the golf course, or seasons tickets to his favorite team. They may not be something he would buy himself and you might even get to see a few games, yourself.

Holiday

Treat your best man to a weekend ski trip away, a few days in the sun at an all-inclusive resort or a staycation, where you just book him and his partner a room at a nice hotel in town for a nice restful break.

Adult Beverages

How about some smoky, well-aged scotch with a nice set of glasses. You can find them custom engraved for an extra special treat. Also, vintage wines are a nice gift that they will save for their own special occasion.

Classes

Maybe your best man has always wanted to learn how to cook or play the guitar. Give him a gift certificate for what he wants to learn, and give him that extra nudge he needs to get started.

Man's Best

Take some time to think about the person and what he may really like. Show him you have been listening to his ideas and dreams and help them start to realize.

Your wedding is a special time for everyone, so make sure they know how much you appreciate them.
