Groomsmen gift

Ladies this is what FH wants to give the guys as gift, I am leary because if they don't drink wine will they be offended?

Re: Groomsmen gift

Actually I like it. No one should know what the groomsmen like better then the groom. Are the cases personalized?

Re: Groomsmen gift

I thought about that. I don't know any black men who drink wine. The guys I know like whiskey, brandy, or bourbon and those bottles are usually bigger than those canisters. But it's still a nice gift for the groomsmen. It looks better than a flask.

Re: Groomsmen gift

my thought exactly, but I guess if we don't buy a real "expensive" bottle of wine they can still have it as a symbol...his nephew is 22 and probably ain't really did any drinking, but he will definetly use it as a symbol (and will probably display it on his myspace page!!!!!!!! LOL

Fh is actually getting his guys gage gifts. He's the only Cowboys fan out of the bunch so he's getting all of them something with the Dallas Cowboys on it.

Also you have to think it would be nice for them to have wine to impress a lady (married or not)Sutter Homes has nice wines. DO NOT spend a whole lot of money on a bottle of wine, some of the best wines are inexpensive. As long as you don't do Arbor Mist or Wild Vines they will think that you really know your wines. I would probably get a Merlot for a man because it goes best with steaks and red meat. If you wanted to do a white I would do a Riesling, its a little sharp and not as sweet as a Chardonnay or a White Zinfandel.

Re: Groomsmen gift

Soon those wine boxes are gorgeous. Even if they don't drink the wine, it's a nice display. Nice pick.

Go to a wine and/or cheese tasting....some vineyards even have gift shops that will make your own label and bottle it for you on that day....What a delicious treat to open on a 5 or ten year anniversary! After a that you should be well equipped to make a good decision and even pick out the type of wine you like best....This is a whole field with professionals and allSmile
