With all the wedding planning that goes on, sometimes it's easy to put off tasks such as purchasing groomsmen gifts until the last moments before your wedding day. But thanking your Best Man and your groomsmen is important – they're your best friends, your brothers, your relatives – your guys! Show them how much you appreciate them (and that bachelor party they threw; plus, you got them wearing suits) by getting them a gift that they'll actually use or keep long after your wedding day ends.

Here are a few Groomsmen gift ideas that are better than a slap on the back and more meaningful than a hastily written thank you card. If you do it right, they'll use your gift for years to come – so choose wisely, my friends.

Golf Game

If your buddies are big sports fans, why not treat them to a round of golf on a nice course. If you're getting married at a country club, sometimes you can get discounts or deals on outings.

Racecar Tickets / Sports Game Tickets

Like Indy 500 or have a favorite NFL team? Why not grab tickets to the next big race or game and treat your guys to a guys' night out.

Customizable Converse sneakers

If you're dudes like chucks, why not get them customized Converse sneakers? You can pick your own colors, add a design, and you know you'll be giving them something they'll use.

Customizable Bobblehead

If humor and gag gifts are more your style, why not get a customizable bobblehead for your guys, either of yourself or of them. Who doesn't love bobbleheads?

Personalized Beer Mug

Give your drinking buddies a gift you know they'll use – personalized beer mugs! Not only are these practical, but you can add your wedding date, or a personalized message, to the mug itself.

Bottle Opener / Corkscrew

We all need 'em, so why not get your groomsmen a nice bottle opener or corkscrew - matching sets or different colors or designs based on the personalities of each individual.

Monogrammed Watches

Always a favorite of groomsmen, why not get a set of monogrammed watches so that they'll always be on time to your guys' nights, or at least they'll know they're late.

Cigar Boxes

Cigar boxes and humidifiers are unique and beautiful groomsmen gifts, and even if your guys don't smoke, they're good for storage and display.

Wallets with Scratchers

Everyone needs a new wallet after a bit, so why not get your guys matching wallets. You can personalize them with your wedding logo or date, and you can fill them with lotto scratchers, giving your buds a chance to win big (and share the wealth, of course).

Poker Set

If your groomsmen are poker players, then a great gift idea would be matching poker sets – you can even do personalized chips with your wedding date on them!

Flasks

A tried and true groomsmen gift – even if your groomsmen aren't big drinkers, these can be displayed and are long-lasting reminders of the good times you had together and your wedding day!

Engraved Lighter

Another favorite of grooms as gifts to pass out to their groomsmen. You can personalize each lighter to the individual or do the same engraving with your wedding date or a nice message and give them to all. Even for the non-smokers, this is an easy and convenient reminder of your wedding, and can be a lifelong gift that your guys will appreciate.

Pocket Knives

Always handy and easy to carry and store, a pocket knife can also be customized with a message or date to remind your groomsmen of your wedding even after the years have gone by.

Belt Buckles

For the trendier groomsmen, a nice belt buckle is a unique gift that can be a fun addition to any belt. Match them up for a nice groomsmen theme, or pick out unique belt buckles that match each of your groomsmen's personalities.

Whatever you choose to go with for your groomsmen gift, don't worry! Your guys are there for you on your big day because they care about you and will appreciate that you took the time to pick out a gift for them, whatever you end up choosing!
