    Default Unique Wedding Party gifts

    I've been racking my brain trying to think up some unique gifts to get the wedding party for all the work and good times they've given us.

    A select few guys are already getting "Das Boot", a 2L Beer Boot as seen in Beerfest.

    I'm trying to think of some ideas that people would like to get for a gift, or just something that would be cool, righteous, kick ass or anything you can think of.

    Help me out minds of SW!

    Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.

    meh, that's why i like the chinese way...muuuuuneee. dough-ray-me! easy peasy.

    another interesting gift along those same lines is a small gold figurine(s), also a traditional chinese gift. it's money...but in a sculpture.

    most of the ones i see are either figurines of the year of birth (e.g. mine is a dog) or a dragon and rooster for the typical wedding figures (i'll let others decide which is the bride and which is the groom ).

    gift certificates to a furniture store or something like that might also be "more lasting".

    but that's kind of like the registry thing too. that's actually still your best bet imo but if you're looking for unusual i suggest gold.

    Anything from a "Bridal Store" is probably not going to fit my bill.

    If it speaks of "I got this at a wedding" its not what I'm looking for. I should have been more specific in my original post.

    Thanks for the answers thus far .

    Tone-Loc, hahaha, I will be pondering that one.

    I don't know how out of the ordinary this is but I thought about giving my cousin and his wife a gift card to a nice restaurant, I ended up giving them money but I thought with all the home goods they would get how about giving them something that would bring them together

    *slaps head* Ahh, the wedding party. My instructor who is getting married this month said she got her wedding party manicures and pedicures. She thought they would feel nice and look nice.

    Hard to say ..how much time do you want to devote and whats your price limit? I'm assuming you are talking about the guys in your wedding party..or are you buying for her attendants as well? Do these people have any interests or hobbies that can be translated in to personalized gifts?

    And dont leave the little ones out..ring bearer, flower girls...they might be kids, but they like gifts too! And their parents will love you for it.

    Just any ideas will do. Don't try and "figure out" what type of people we are or what we might like.

    Just throw ideas out as you might jog my memory or give me a fantastic idea.

    Its a brainstorm people

    Haha, not exactly sure that my guys would like me giving them a lap dance. Though if I can figure out a way to get a great girl to give them one (outside the reception of course) now thats some good stuff.

    how about some fancy pens (e.g. cartier, mont blanc, waterman,) or personalized items (e.g. engraved watch or bracelet)?

    the watches and stuff don't have to be name brand and extra expensive, just pretty and useful. it'll be the personalized engraving that'll cost and provide the "elegance".

    i personally prefer the pen, although i'm not a collector. i got one for my best friend when she finally landed the teaching job she had coveted. she went absolutely nuts over it.

    imho i think it adds a nice elegant touch. hth

    For my groomsmen, I went with a stainless steel swiss army knife engraved with their initials (pictured below). I liked it cause I was sick of getting cuff links and beer/wine glasses. As far as going with something less traditional, that's tough without knowing your buddies or how much you want to spend.
