Humidor for Groomsman Gifts
When a man gets married, he has groomsmen with him as a traditional part of the ceremony. Another tradition is to give each groomsman a gift as a sign of friendship and honor. For groomsmen who enjoy cigars and smoking in general, one gift idea is to give humidors on the wedding day.

Size
-
Humidors come in a variety of sizes. A desktop humidor is a mid-sized box that can hold up to 20 cigars, while pocket humidors can hold between one and five cigars safely and securely. To add a humorous touch to the gift, you could give each groomsman a single cigar humidor, and tell him to hold on to it until the day that it's his respective turn to walk down the aisle.
Materials
-
Humidors also come in a number of different materials. For instance, wooden humidors are simple boxes that may also be covered in smooth leather in a number of patterns and colors. You could customize the humidor to reflect the wedding by giving out black, formal-looking humidors. You could also opt for metal humidors, which could then be engraved with a message to each groomsman to make it slightly more personal.

Cost
-
Personal humidors, those that are able to travel and are small enough to be given as gifts, have a bit of a price range. You could spend as little as $20 or as much as $100 if you want to get a humidor that comes with custom coloring and work done on it. Depending on the number of groomsmen you have to get gifts for, and the budget that you're working with, this can limit your choices for the humidors you get.
Cigars
-
Cigars come from a completely different budget than the humidor. Unless otherwise stated, the humidors you buy come empty, and it's your responsibility to purchase cigars to fill them. This can add to the cost you're looking at, because giving a cheap humidor with an expensive cigar in it might be a good one-time gift, but giving an expensive humidor with a cheap cigar in it shows that you were running out of funds.
