I hope that everyone had a great weekend! It was blissful here in Boston so we spent most of the our days outside, playing in the leaves and eating way too many pumpkin donuts. Just the kind of weekend that totally recharges me and gets me excited for all of the prettiness that we have coming up on SMP this week. And I mean serious prettiness…a wedding by Jose Villa, an affair by Lisa Vorce and one of the coolest Veteran’s Day stories you can imagine.
But for this morning, I wanted to kick off the week with a feature that our fabulous round-up editor, Carrie, put together just for you guys. After hearing so many requests to get great ideas on groomsmen gifts, Carrie has rounded up her favorite finds for the men in your lives. Love, love, love all of these little gems and am 100% sure that you will find some great ideas tucked inside.

I am really excited about today’s highly requested groomsmen gift Round Up. I think we all can agree that finding unique gifts for those boys can be quite a challenge, especially when it comes to wedding-related items. Keeping in mind that the groom will want to accomplish a few goals with his gift, I have pulled together some gift ideas today that are sure to cover all the bases: a little personal, a little practical, and rounded out with just some cool man gear. Here’s to those boys!

Row I: Bon Bonoiseau has fantastic accessories for the ladies, but I just adore their vintage money clips for the guys. In a wide assortment of charms, you can pick a different one for each groomsman. Colonel Littleton’s leather bound journal is not just for the Renaissance man. It’s rustic details and worn in monogram, make this journal suitable for all types of men. Added bonus: You even get a free mini Moon Pie with your order! Cuff links are always a good bet when it comes gifts for the groomsmen. I love these atlas cuff links found on Etsy- better yet, they are completely customizable.
Row II: Perfect for the academic type, these engraved leather book covers are completely original and can even be modeled after your own custom artwork. Faux mustache’s are all the rage these days, so why not gift your guys these cool mugs found on Etsy. Go the extra mile and stuff the mug with a tie for the big day or a gift card to your favorite store. Every guy could use this personalized shoeshine kit by Col. Littleton. All tucked inside a masculine case perfect for travel, this kit is a one-stop shop.
Row III: Nothing says “Thank you” to a group of men like a personalized poker set does. His buds might just break it out on the big weekend. For something completely unique, Ork Posters is a great way to show gratitude with a really cool concept. Customize the city to each one of your guys for added sentiment.This might just be the classiest kit for cigar lovers. Just add a cigar and you’ll be good-to-go.
We have SO much more coming up!

Thank you for displaying my mustache mug! I was ecstatic to find a message from someone telling me I had been featured on your beautiful blog :)
Brilliant idea, Paula! I love the mug for really anyone-not just the men :)
I'm loving the mug as well! Definitely gives me a great idea for all those coffee loving groomsmen, thanks Carrie!!
My husband and I got these cuff links for our groomsmen...they were a big hit! This Etsy vendor is great to work with too!
Great to hear, McKenzi. There are several vendors that offer this product, but I really liked her referral rate as well as her personal touch to each item..LOVE them!
Fabulous as always Carrie!
MUSTACHE CUP!!!!!
Also, I LOVE those neighborhood posters. I have had a long-lasting crush on the Chicago one.
Love Love Love that mug. A little piece of genius. Perfect Xmas gift for him indoors...
i got my fiance sean a bon bon oiseau money clip for christmas last year. he loves it. i love bon bon earrings and deb is making a flower for my hair for the big day... i'm so happy to see her work featured here!
thanks so much for featuring my moneyclipS and in such great company (yes mustache mug and ork posters!
P.s. You know we'll stamp his initials on the back too or the date or whatever that groom wants! (and so sweet of cindy to alert me to this--cheers!)
If the groom loves to travel, a leather travel kit and toiletry bag is best. He'll easily organize the things that might be needed in his travel. He can put small stuff in separate compartments safely and securely
There are some great ideas there!
