You took a deep breath. Got down on one knee. Professed your love. Proposed. Now you’re getting married! You can't wait, but then you rewind a little and realize there's someone who deserves a little credit too. The one who offered you valuable opinions during the ring selection? The one who hyped you up and gave you the bravery to go through with this? The one who has stood by your side through thick and thin? Yeah, that's your best man. And come wedding day, you gotta thank him, too.
Or maybe you haven’t even picked your best man yet. But once you do, he’ll micromanage the walk-up to your big day: Throwing a killer bachelor party, wrangling the guests, getting down the right wedding dress codes, helping rehearse your vows, giving an epic reception toast. He's your best friend! He does it all. In turn, he deserves a thank-you gift for him—that’s worthy of his noble position next to you as you say “I Do.”
Whether it’s a personal trinket, a classy keepsake, or an insider-only joke choice. Since you’re not gifting your entire groomsmen squad, we recommend you to splurge a little, customize a little for your best man. And we’ve got 25 of the best ideas ahead, including many personalizable options tailored to his interests. So read on, and congrats.

Personalized Flask
A small gesture that will go a long way. Especially when he gets cornered at the reception.
Monogrammed Backless Loafers
He'll be in lap of luxury, kicking back in a pair of Gucci's leather-trimmed loafers. Might as well get yourself a matching pair, too.

Bar Set
Ebony, leather, and stainless steel craft this bar set. He can whip up some cocktails with pure lavishness.

So gifting it to your best man—with custom engraving—seems only appropriate.
