Thank you for sharing Wicked Bucks Parties…
Weddings are a wonderful thing, right? And as the best man, you’ve got a VIP ticket to experience all the very best parts of the celebration. You’ll have the honour of organising the bucks party, putting together a seriously unforgettable speech and really just watching on as your best friend marries the partner of his dreams.
But as his best buddy, you’ve likely become closer with his bride too. While you probably won’t be in the bridal party itself, it’s always nice to show the woman of his dreams that she has your tick of approval and that you’re happy she’s found her way to your mate.
There are plenty of different ways you can show your appreciation, everything from helping out with the wedding planning to keeping the groom out of too much mischief on his bucks party night. However, for something that she can hold onto for a little longer, that shows you’ve put a little bit of extra thought into it, a gift is always the option.
Wedding gifts from the best man to the bride are an increasingly popular tradition. It’s a way of saying “hey, you’re a pretty cool girl and I’m grateful to have you around’, without you having to actually say that yourself. But deciding to buy a gift is the easy part, it’s knowing exactly what to get that may seem a little more challenging.
But with the help of Wicked Bucks, it doesn’t have to be. In fact, they’ve done all the hard yards to give you a leg-up and ensure buying the perfect gift for the bride is an absolute breeze. After playing their part in hundreds of bucks party celebrations and weddings across the globe, these expert party planners have worked with people of all ages, cultures, traditions and lifestyles. The diversity of their experience is that they helped thousands of best men pick out the perfect gift.
To help you find exactly what you’re looking for, even if you don’t know what that is just yet, they’ve pulled together a list of their top picks. Read on to discover the best man gifts for the bride.
Top best man gifts for the bride
1. Unique jewellery
Jewellery might sound like it’s the job of the groom, but there are some surprisingly nice pieces that are just as nice coming from a friend – aka you. Simple pieces like a bangle, necklace or bracelet on behalf of the wedding party will give the bride a sentimental keepsake to remind her of the big day for years to come.
Depending on the piece of jewellery, you can even have the piece engraved with a special message, finished with the fingerprint of her soon to be husband or gifted as part of a matching set. To go one step further, you can look into the options to get a matching set for her and the groom so that there’s a nice surprise in store for both of them.
2. Merchandise for the new ‘Mrs’
While changing to the groom’s surname after marriage is becoming less and less common, the shift to being a “Mrs” is something that still remains firmly in place. It’s a new yet very special feeling to be called “Mrs” when a woman is first married, but something that most little girls grow up looking forward to.
To really embrace the sentiment of the moment, you can give the bride a present with the word “Mrs” on it. From mugs and silk pyjamas to robes and wine glasses, there are so many different options out there that you’re bound to find the perfect one to suit your buddy’s soon to be wife.
3. Spa gift card
The lead up to the wedding is almost always a busy time filled with planning, organising, checking and double checking for the couple – but more so the bride. Even on the day itself, it’s not unusual for the bride to be running around doing all the last final checks, in between getting ready of course!
With so much happening and so many balls in the air, most brides will wake up the morning after their wedding craving a little break. And that’s not just because of the champagne! While they’ll usually have the honeymoon as an opportunity to chill out, modern couples are increasingly waiting some time after their wedding to head away at a time that better suits their work schedule or when they’ve saved up a little more. A spa gift card will give the bride an excuse to unwind and relax as soon as she’s ready, without her having to wait a second longer. But if she is jetting straight off for the honeymoon, you can always tee up a voucher for a spa in the destination of their holiday.
4. Creative art piece
Marriage is the start of a new chapter for any couple. Whether they’ve lived together for years or they’re just preparing to move in with each other for the first time, it’s always a period filled with change and new beginnings. You can embrace this time of fresh starts by gifting the bride with a unique and creative art piece that she can hang in their home or hold onto for the day they move into their dream place.
There are loads of different ways you can give these pieces a personalised touch too. A great option is to have an artist paint a picture of the couple or get a digital designer to create an illustration of their favourite picture together. If you’re opting for a more traditional art piece, why not consider having their initial engraved on the frame or getting a message from the artist themselves to accompany the piece if possible?
