A Male Version of the Bridesmaid Gift: Introducing the "Groomsman Box"♡

Groomsman Box Instead of a Bridesmaid Box ♡

A Common Practice Overseas: The Bride's and Groom's Attendants (Bridesmaids & Groomsmen/Usher) *

They coordinate with matching dresses and accessories to help the bride and groom, adding a beautiful touch to the wedding! ♡

When asking someone to be a bridesmaid, it’s customary to give a little gift known as a "Bridesmaid Box" ♡

This typically includes matching earrings, bracelets, lip products, snacks, and a message card. *

And although it’s not very common in Japan...

Friends of the groom who will be groomsmen also receive a "Groomsman Box" ♡

What’s Inside the Box?

The contents of the Groomsman Box are similar to those of the Bridesmaid Box, consisting of items to wear at the wedding and small gifts ♡

The gifts often include alcohol and tumblers. It seems that they are sometimes given for use at the "bachelor party" held solely for the groom's friends before the wedding. *

Let's Prepare a Groomsman Box Too! ♡

Offering a Bridesmaid Box for bridesmaids is becoming a popular way to show hospitality among fashionable brides ♡

But not only that, giving Groomsmen a Groomsman Box will surely make the groom’s friends happy too! ♩

Since Groomsmen are not very common in Japan, I think they will be surprised, thinking "What a fantastic gesture!" or "I can't believe I'm actually doing what I often see in overseas dramas!"

They will play an important role by helping, cheering up the reception, and taking photos together, so when you ask them, let’s hand over a box with matching items plus a thank-you gift for them to enjoy! ♡
