Groom Things
Monday, June 20, 2011 at 7:27AM The involved groom is not a concept I’m familiar with. I mean, The Candyman definitely took part in the planning process, but for the most part, it was me. There were things he thought were super-important (the ceremony), very important (food) and not important at all (just about everything else). Personally, I wish we’d done something other than the standard tuxedo for him and the rest of the male bridal party. Not that they guys didn’t look great, but The Candyman’s tuxedo didn’t really fit him very well. I didn’t realize this factoid until a few months after we were married and we went suit shopping together. Boy howdy, that man can rock a suit. It made me a little sad that maybe he didn’t get to wear his bestest best like I did.
So here are a few things I’ve recently stumbled upon that I think are super-cool for your groom and perhaps groomsmen. Maybe your dad too!
Always + Forever Cufflinks via Bella Moda Co., $42. Discount if you buy 4 or more pairs!
Super cool iPhone/Wallet from Byrd & Belle, $28!
Belt buckles are a fabulous way for a guy to show his personality without calling it an “accessory.” I adore this Hunter S. Thompson one by bmused belt buckles by Arte, $20.
This key chain? It says “I love you” in Morse code. How cool (and private and sneaky) is this! From C. Johannesen Studio, $22.
For the money clip kinda guy? Check out this Steampunk cool one from Compass Rose Design, $27.50.
I always have a hard time picking out stuff for the men in my life, but hitting up Cargoh.com and Etsy and searching under “guys” will help you find some interesting stuff! Do you have all the groom-goodies selected? What did you get for the Boy’s Team?

Oh, I think the belt buckle looks kinda like your brother. You should get it for him for Christmas!
Love the morse code keychain...such a sneaky and romantic idea!
I love quirky cufflinks. I bought a set of map links and tie tack for Tony, and he's planning to offer them to Bug when/if he gets married. :D. Sentimental goober.
@Sarah - I saw those cuff links.....they are too cute. I actually thought of you & Tony when I saw these!
