Product Spotlight: Personalized Gray Crosshatch Convertible Garment Bag

It can be difficult to buy gifts for people you care about. You need something personal, and it should be something they’ll love, but it will be even more special if it’s something they will use, too. This convertible garment bag is an incredible gift – for your husband-to-be, his groomsmen, or even just as a birthday gift. It is perfect for everyone, from gym-goers to travelers, whether they’re taking a family weekend getaway or visiting another country for work.

This polyester and faux leather duffel bag opens up and expands into a garment bag with hanging capabilities. It even has separate compartments on the inside for shoes. The two strap options let you carry the bag over your shoulder or in your hands. The bag offers two outer pockets on either end, and one wider pocket on the front as well.

The beautiful gray material with black accents is stylish without being too flashy, and the bold monogram stands out enough to ensure you’ll never get it mixed up with someone else’s on a baggage carousel in an airport. As an added bonus, this bag is also an airline approved carry on bag, so your traveling just got a whole lot easier if you prefer not waiting around a baggage carousel at all.

If you’re having a destination wedding (or even if you just have to travel a few hours away), these bags are the best gifts for your groomsmen and family members. Fill the bag with travel necessities, fun surprises, their favorite treats, and a thank you note and give them to the recipients when they arrive at the hotel.

New Icon Personalized Sports Theme Beer Mugs

Personalized beer mugs are a popular groomsman gift. Traditionally, the groom gives every member of his wedding party, including the best man, groomsmen, father, and ring bearer, a small gift in appreciation for participating in his wedding. Beer mugs are a sure winner for many guys, either as collectibles or as functional vessels to hold their favorite beer.

My Wedding Reception Ideas.com has just added a new line of personalized beer mugs called the Icon sports line. These hefty glass mugs stand 6 3/4 inches tall and are 3 3/4 inches wide to hold 25 ounces of beer or other favorite drink to quench a man-sized thirst. These mugs feature laser-etched designs of players wielding their instruments of the games including football, baseball, hockey, skiing, golf, hunting, pool, and poker. Also available are the 'Varsity' series that sport varsity-style monograms.

Every design theme is personalized with two lines of custom print so names, nicknames, dates, or short, witty phrases can be tailored to admonish the individual each, unique mug is intended for.

Grooms are always looking for a variety of unique gifts for their groomsmen. The 'Icon' sports series beer mug collection offers a greater variety of choices along with our other popular personalized beer mugs.
