How to be a good best man

Here are some helpful tips from our friend, Chris Easter and TheManRegistry.com to pass on to your fiancée’s best man.

Think being the best man simply means standing next to the groom during the wedding ceremony? Think again. The best man has several important duties to handle before, during and after the wedding. Not sure what the title entails? Don’t sweat – here’s a quick breakdown.

Before the wedding

  • Prior to the wedding day, the best man will be tasked with organizing the bachelor party for the groom. Talk with the groom to see what his expectations are and do your best to serve up an unforgettable last single night out with the guys. Need help? Enlist a couple of other groomsmen to help make the arrangements.
  • Also discuss with the groom if you’ll be expected to give a toast at either the rehearsal dinner or wedding reception. If so, you’ll need to set aside some time to work on your speech. To write a great speech, focus on a personal anecdote or two that highlights who the groom is as a person and any heart-felt observations about the couple, rather than dredging up embarrassing stories for shock value. The key is to keep it memorable, yet classy.
  • Part of the best man’s job may also call for helping the groom with planning details, such as arranging the wedding-day transportation or helping with the rehearsal dinner.

On the wedding day

  • On the day of the wedding, the best man serves as the groom’s right-hand man, making sure he gets dressed and to the church or ceremony location on time, administering some liquid courage (not too much, of course) and helping to calm any last-minute jitters. You’ll also be in charge of keeping the wedding rings safe until the ceremony and asked to sign the marriage certificate after the wedding.
  • After the reception, you may be asked to help the bride’s and groom’s families pack gifts into cars or drive the newlyweds to the hotel or airport, so make sure to celebrate responsibly.

After the wedding

  • The day after the wedding, the best man should return the groom’s tux to the rental shop. Make sure to find out the shop’s hours ahead of time, so you’re not charged for an extra day.

Wedding Day Gifts from the Bride to the Groom

Friday, December 10th, 2010

By Chris Easter from TheManRegistry.com

We love this gift! You can check the time and keep your money all in one place.

It’s wedding tradition that the bride and groom exchange gifts on the wedding day. These gifts can range from something expensive (digital camera) to something that doesn’t even cost a penny (handwritten wedding vows). The key is to put some thought into it and making

Here are five suggestions for brides seeking the perfect wedding day gift for their new husband:

1.) Vows – Let’s face it; the economy has affected many couples’ wedding budgets. Instead of having some extra cash to put towards a great gift for your man, you might have to save that cash for reception or flower costs. However, this doesn’t mean you still can’t come up with a unique and meaningful gift. Consider writing your own vows and reciting them at the altar as your gift.  If you’ve got a few extra dollars to spare, you could even purchase a small frame and have the vows framed for his office.

2.) Wedding Day Cufflinks – He’s going to need cufflinks for the big day. Why not get him a pair that he’ll be able to treasure for the rest of his life as opposed to the used pair the tux shop is going to give him? Engraved cufflinks are affordable and come in many styles. From classy stainless steel sets to quirky themed sets, you’ll definitely be able to find something unique to your groom.

3.) Money Clip – Most guys have torn up old wallets that store their cash, ID cards and credit cards. Taking that into account, a sharp, new money clip might be just what he needs to add a little organization to his life. The Personalized Money Clip offers a classy look while also leaving room for engraving. He’ll look like he just walked off the ‘Mad Men’ set!

4.) Wine Gifts – Do you and your groom share “wine time” at night or on the weekends? Why not celebrate your new marriage with a new wine glass set or engraved corkscrew? Unique wine gifts are great addition to your home décor and will leave a lasting memory of your wedding day.

5.) Golf Gifts –It’s no secret. Guys love golf. If you want to drop the big bucks – might I suggest a new set of golf clubs or a season pass to a favorite golf course? [Bonus advice – taking up golf as a couple is a great way to spend more time together.]

Cufflinks and Accessory Ideas for the Groom

Here are some quick thoughts on the groom’s wedding day accessories from the groom experts at The Man Registry.

Guys, if you’re wearing a tux on your wedding day, you’re going to need cufflinks. Tux shops usually provide a “Plain Jane” cufflink that goes with your attire. Trust me, you can do better. Most grooms will order personalized cufflinks for themselves (and oftentimes for their groomsmen as well). Some of our most popular options are the engraved two tone cufflinks and the Harrison Silver cufflinks.

Ascots are making a comeback in a big way. If you and your bride are fashion-oriented, this may be a route for you to consider instead of the standard necktie or bowtie. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the ascot, it’s a narrow silk band that goes around the neck. It features wide pointed wings and looks a little something like this. Keep in mind you’ll generally need a pin to hold the ascot in place.

Personalizing the boutonniere is quickly becoming a popular way for the groom to leave his mark on the wedding day attire. Whether it’s utilizing colors from a favorite sports team or incorporating a favorite hobby, there are plenty of ideas out there. Just remember to consult with the bride before pinning a flower in the shape of a deer head to your tux!
Finally, if you’re wearing a vest, consider adding a pocket watch with a chain. This may sound funny or straight out of a movie, but classy and elegant is in. Take a risk and go for it!
