5. gifts for the men...

Allen and I spent a few months searching for groomsmen gifts. I wanted them to be similar, affordable and useful. Allen wanted them to be shiny. I think we managed to get a mix of both.

Unlike the girl's gifts, almost nothing was bought on Etsy. Everything was at Wal-Mart, Winner's, Metrotown Mall in Burnaby and other local stores. In truth, since I wasn't sticking to a damask theme, it was much easier and quicker to get the boys done.

Every gift had AXE body products. It's Allen's favorite shower stuff and it came in these freaking adorable packages, so it worked well. We also added in a macho-macho DVD for each package. If they already had the DVD, they traded with someone who didn't. It worked out. We also included dress socks so they wouldn't have to buy dress socks for the wedding.

Since TK was the best men, he got clothing.

Yeah, just an idea of what the gifts looked like. Pretty simple and straightforward, and everyone seemed to appreciate them.
