What's A Groom to Do?
You were nervous but you proposed and she accepted. The wedding plans are going forward and now you are the groom on this special day. What tasks does the groom perform for the wedding? It’s an age-old debate…just how involved is the groom in planning the wedding? The answer varies by couple, but here are a few definite responsibilities that fall squarely on the groom’s shoulders. Finding A Best Man The best man is the groom’s maid-of-honor equivalent. He is responsible for keeping the groom calm under all circumstances, organizing the bachelor party, safeguarding the rings on wedding day, and getting the reception started with a first toast. Picking Groomsmen Flanking the best man are the groomsmen, who sometimes pull a double-shift working as ushers. If there is an aisle runner, the groomsmen are responsible for unrolling it in preparation for the processional. After unrolling it, the groomsmen join the groom in front of the altar. Following the ceremony, the groomsmen escort the bridal party back up the aisle. Groomsmen Gifts To show appreciation for a job well done, and to symbolize the groom’s progress from one stage of life to another, the groom will often present each groomsmen with a personalized gift. Take some time to think about the personality of each groomsmen, one might be the best golfing buddy ever, while the other prefers chilling out watching football and drinking beer. You can either get a different gift for each groomsmen, or the same gift for each one of them…personalized of course, so they don’t get them mixed up. One great idea might be a pocket watch engraved with the wedding date and their name. Or, if you have less of a budget, consider an engraved money clip or nice pen. Here are some ideas to help you get started, plus…with free personalization and shipping, you really can’t go wrong.
