Groom Wedding Gift Advice Needed???

Options
Ok so i'm getting married in August and i can't split my 2 best friends who i have known for 20 years. Also my partner has a extended family and she wants her brother, father and her step father to have the same dress attire as myself and my best men and my father.
Ok question is i know i have to buy a gift for my best men but do i have to buy the others a gift? I wasn't going to call them groomsmen but my partner just wants them all in the same dress.
Any help appreciated.....

    Not unless your budget allows and your fiancee demands it.
  • Call them Ushers? My husband's best friend did when he got married and couldn't choose. Buy what you can afford to. You don't want to look back on your lovely wedding in five years time and think about the fact that you're still paying for it. If you want to buy them something perhaps make it a token gift.
  • Hi, when DD got married her dad got a gift , the best man got nice cufflinks and I think the ushers also got cufflinks . At all the weddings I've been to the ushers have been given a gift . Of course you don't have to do this, but it's a thank you for doing the things that ushers do to help make your day run smoothly . Have a great day whatever you decide .

    Only get them a gift if you want to and can afford to.
