Men, here’s your chance to claim a right of passage that should have been yours all along.  Take advantage of the growing trend in “guys only” wedding showers.  We girls get 2-3 showers thrown for us and yes, co-ed wedding showers are fun, but… it’s your turn!

Good for the goose.  Good for the gander.

C’mon dads, brothers, cousins…throw that groom of yours a party that’s testosterone room only, from he-man to sophisticated, whatever seems appropriate for the group.  Inviting all the men from both sides, gives them a chance to get to know each other in a relaxed setting.

And, there’s gifts…

Wedding registries are being offered at lots of places that men would be interested in, including home improvement stores.  You can also spread your wish list via word of mouth for speciality stores and items.  Here are some ideas:

1. Home Improvement stores
2. Hardware stores
3. Specialty stores: lighting, flooring, windows, etc.
4. Magazine subscription
5. Specialty retailers for the man who loves to: cook, bedeck and organize his home, etc.
6. Bigger retailers i.e. Walmart, Target, etc.
7. Sporting goods stores
8. Gas cards

You know you want a pressure washer… that would be a great gift for a group to go in on.

Have a great weekend!
