There has already been some talk about doing that on Friday morning. However, I feel like I should also give a tangible gift.

If you had more time, I would say custom golf balls.

Golf is a great gift, and there's no reason that you can't make it tangible. Play 18, buy them dinner, and then give them each a case of wine.

What about this?

Do you guys all share something in common (school, hometown, etc.)?

For the past hour I've feel like someone hit be with a bag of pollen.

My friend gave us personalized flasks (they were pre filled) and said bring these tomorrow.

Another route is cufflinks , I got a pair for being in another wedding with my initials.

I would pay for a picture of that attached to one of your ambulances, while the ambulance is parked in front of the liquor store.

Since family is extremely important to both of us, we decided to stick with a family theme - my best man is my dad and my 2 groomsmen are my fiancee's brothers. So, the brothers share the same hometown and they both went to the same school.

I'll be wearing antique typewriter cufflinks with my initials on them. :) Thanks to sbm12 for that idea... 2/3 of the guys would probably never wear cufflinks again, so I'm not sure that is practical in this case.

A multitool. That's what I got my guys. It's useful and if you get a good brand, they last forever.

I just saw the email as I got on my flight. I despise the TSA. That's an organization that truly defines goverment as useless.

In other news, greetings from somewhere over MO. This in-flight interboobz thing is pretty cool. Now, if only it was cheaper.

If at least one of them has a truck, it's a winner if for nothing else the looks you guys will get.

The commonality in a bridal party, IMO, has to be universal. It's not Christmas presents, where you have the freedom to get someone something that suits them perfectly.

Good call. Go for a really rugged Gerber or something.
