If it's your wedding, you are bound to spend a lot of time making plans right from your guest list, to the clothes you wear. If you are going to have a wedding, you are probably preoccupied with the wedding venue, what you will wear, who you invite and a lot more that's included on the list. In all the rush, you could eventually fail to thank those who have stood by you and been there to help see you through. There's a high possibility for your groomsmen to be on that list. Gifting your groomsmen is a good gesture and the best way to say Thank You!

Tips for Giving a Good Wedding Speech
Anyone who has been in a wedding has surely heard someone give a toast at the wedding reception. Often, wedding speeches are given by the father of the bride, best man, or a close friend or relative of the couple. Some of us may have been recipients of a terrible, long and embarrassing wedding toast that we would certainty never want at our own wedding. Although it can be tricky there are tips and tricks known to write and prepare for these speeches.
The Best Man's Wedding Speech
The Best Man's speech is yet another classic wedding moment that has found its way into countless romantic comedies, books and sketch shows. An speech that is so bad and awkward that it is funny is a good recipe for a sketch, but not the best recipe for a happy day or a life-long friendship.
So what is the worst thing that a Best Man can say in his speech? The classic scenario is the disclosure of certain facts about the grooms past, which are a complete surprise to the guests, and indeed the bride. The Best Man, being the grooms best friend, has had access and been privy to all sorts of interesting bits of gossip, or even scandal. The worst thing a Best Man can do would be to actually capitalize on this sort of information. By all means make things up, and make sure the audience knows that they are made up.
