What about Paul Smith coffe mugs? Sounds shite but they look really good.

Or hip flasks and fill them up before you give them to them.

A phrase that always reminds me of the BBC ad about programming with Vic and Bob featuring "Poldark on Mopeds"... "gimmie back my pewter tankard!"

I got an engraved hip flask from my brother when I was his best man.

Have to agree with JL here though - he needn't have bought me anything, just being his best man was enough, one of the proudest days of my life.

Why not think about what each one would really enjoy (within reason), and buy them that?

I have been best man three times, and the gift that one groom gave me has meant more than the other two. It also happened to be the cheapest. It was given by a very close friend, and he thought long and hard about what to get.

I have ushered more times than I can remember, and the same applies. To illustrate - twice I was bought a bottle of good single malt. One simply bought a bottle of a fairly common one for each usher. The other learned what my taste in malts was, and spent some time and effort to find me a rare and much more special one. Didn't cost any more though.

Which meant the most to me?
