Groomsman Gifts

All photos in this post (except for the photo of just the ties) are courtesy of my amazing photographer Lew D'Souza of Engaging Images. 

I had so many blog posts in various states of completion before the wedding and things got crazy so I'll be posting them now that we're back from our honeymoon and fully settled into normal life.  This is my first of many wedding "catch-up" posts.

I made necklaces and gave each bridesmaid a clutch as a thank you gift for the ladies, but we were stumped for the groomsmen.  In the end, we decided to give them cigars and ties to wear on the big day.






Our colour theme incorporated various shades of green and we wanted our wedding party to coordinate without being too matchy so we found a fantastic Etsy seller who worked with us to choose the exact shades of green that would work with our colour scheme.

We asked our groomsmen to just wear light or medium grey single-breasted suits with white shirts.  We think we ended up with a pretty handsome bunch!

Of course, two of our groomsmen were dogs and we needed them to be dressed appropriately too.  We found another amazing Etsy seller who let us choose colours and custom made ties for Barkley and Cheetah.

More photos to come!
