Any ideas? We are looking to send under $25 per person because he already bought their ties.  Not Flasks.  Any websites to checkout, or any ideas please let me know.  The wedding will be in October in Minnesota and we are in our mid-20's.  Thanks

I've searched, but what is the rules on gifts for ushers? Family members singing or performing at the ceremony?

Ushers probably don't need anything really huge; most of the weddings I've been to or in, the ushers were the tweenage boys of the families, so something a 12-year-old might like (ask the parents, but perhaps tickets to a ballgame or movie? An afternoon at the skate park on the groom's dime?  A Dave-and-Buster's trip on the groom?  I dunno, depends on the usher and the area.).  For singers/etc, something a bit more valuable, but still it depends on the person.  Are they a wine afficionado?  Then a good bottle would be nice.  Music fan?  Find a concert recording of their favorite artist.  Golfer?  A round at the local CC.

Gifting should be a little fun -- try to personalize it to the people you'll be giving it to.  If you don't know what would be personal... ask around a bit.  Your family and friends might have a good idea as to what people would like, if you're drawing a blank.

I picked up some T-shirts from snorg Tees. They have some funny boyish stuff on them. Different shirt for each person. Being from MN myself, I find myself going on outings up north and such. So I picked up some of those moleskin Journals, to log or write something down in. I found mine to be quite useful to wring some thoughts or revelations of the day into. If it was good enough for Vincent van Gogh, Ernest Hemingway, and Pablo Picasso, it should be good enough for my boys.

If you have been in weddings before recycle what you have received.  For example, for my one friend's wedding I received a gift set of Level vodka.  For my wedding, my groomsmen are receiving Grey Goose gift sets.

Occasionally we have guys who get totally unique groomsmen gifts each person but these are rare because most men feel more comfortable spending the same amount on everyone so there are no favorites make everyone in the wedding party happy with this cool groomsmen gift idea .

It is always hard to know what to buy someone. However, I think that the more you need to give this, the better. The couple will always remember what you gave them. I wonder what the couple was doing for reception decorations. Are they doing indoor fountains, like from Bluworld of Water, or glass sculptors. Wedding receptions are decorated I want to see how. Some people go all out.
