8 personalized groomsmen gift ideas
1. Leather dopp kit
Every man needs one, and few own a good one. Crazy horse leather in Large or XL, with initials on the side. Order the whole set in one color for a matching look, or let each groomsman pick tan, brown or black.
2. Minimalist card holder
Five cards, an ID slot and RFID-blocking lining, with initials on the front corner. Easy on the budget for a large wedding party.
3. Engraved bifold wallet
Eight card slots, two ID windows and a cash pocket, hand-sewn and engraved on the front, inside or both. It arrives in a gift box, so it is ready to hand over.
4. Passport holder and luggage tag set
If the wedding is abroad, this is the gift they will use on the way there. Engrave the cover and the tag with each name.
5. Personalized luggage tags
Engraved leather tags with a paper insert for contact details. A nice add-on to a bigger gift, or a wedding favor for the whole party.
6. 3-pack cord organizers
Three leather cable keepers with initials. Inexpensive, genuinely useful, and a good "will you be my groomsman?" gift.
7. Leather camera strap
A padded leather strap engraved with his name. He will take the best photos of the weekend anyway.
8. Chef knife roll
For the groomsman who runs the grill. A made-to-order leather roll with his name on the front; a standout gift for a best man who cooks.
Make the best man's gift stand out
- Same piece, different detail. Give everyone the dopp kit and engrave "Best Man" and the date inside his.
- Two pieces instead of one. A wallet and a dopp kit for the best man, one piece for everyone else.
- A different color. Everyone in tan, the best man in black, or the other way around.
- A handwritten note. It costs nothing, and it is often what they remember most.

Matching gifts or different ones?
Matching gifts look great in photos and feel like a set: the same piece in the same color, with each name in the same font. If your groomsmen have different styles, keep the piece the same and let each choose tan, brown or black. Either way, use one font for every engraving so the set still feels unified.
Engraving ideas for groomsmen
- Initials: classic and works on every piece
- A first name or nickname
- Role and date: "Groomsman · 06.14.2026" or "Best Man · 2026"
- The couple's initials or the wedding date inside, so it doubles as a keepsake
Check spellings in one message. Collect every name in a single group message and confirm the spellings before you order. It is the most common thing to get wrong.
Ordering for the whole wedding party
- Order three to four weeks before the wedding, so there is time for engraving and delivery.
- Order everything together so the leather and engraving match.
- Free shipping applies to orders over $99 to Canada and the US.
- Bigger party, or adding a logo? Use the quote form for volume pricing.
- Hand them out at the rehearsal dinner, so they can use them on the day.
Groomsmen proposal gifts
Asking "Will you be my groomsman?" with a small gift is a nice tradition. A card holder or a set of cord organizers with his initials, in a box with a note, makes the ask memorable without spending much.

Frequently asked questions
What is a good gift for groomsmen?
Something useful and personal. An engraved leather dopp kit, wallet or card holder gets used for years, and matching pieces in one color look great on the day.
When should you give groomsmen gifts?
Usually at the rehearsal dinner or on the morning of the wedding. Order at least three to four weeks ahead to allow for engraving and delivery.
Can each groomsman's gift have a different name?
Yes. Each piece is engraved individually. Add each name when you order, or send the list with a quote request for larger parties.
What should I get my best man?
The same gift as the groomsmen with something extra: a second piece, a different color, or "Best Man" and the wedding date engraved inside.
How much should I spend on groomsmen gifts?
There is no fixed rule. Card holders and luggage tags suit tighter budgets, wallets and dopp kits sit in the middle, and a knife roll is a standout for the best man.
