How to Make Groomsmen Feel Special

Your groomsmen are your pals, your buddies, your brothers. You want them to have fun being a part of your wedding and you certainly don't want them dreading it. Make them feel special by incorporating some of these steps into your wedding planning.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Keep things simple. Guys love hanging out with each other on a casual basis, without any time constraints, excessive planning or forced entertainment. Get your groomsmen together two or three times during the wedding planning to have some drinks, play corn hole and watch a football game.
2. Include a short bio of each groomsman in your wedding ceremony program. Tell your guests how you met, how long you've known each other and maybe an anecdote about your friendship. Tie it in with something involving your fiancée to make it extra special.
3. Collaborate with your fiancée to put together a photo slideshow of your wedding party to show at the rehearsal dinner. Use funny or meaningful photos from as far back as they go 'til the present. Set them to songs that "take them back."
4. Pull the guys away at the reception and have them join you outside for a cigar, purchased beforehand.
5. Have your guys help you put together a song performance for your bride. Make it fun for the guys and entertaining for the bride and all your wedding guests! It is a great way for your guys to be in on making a priceless memory.
6. Thank each of them personally. Give them a thank-you gift picked out by no one other than you, along with a personal message of gratitude.
