What a crazy day it has been. Don’t get me wrong, it was a very special day. Did I mention that at this late hour, I’m actually very tired. You see, I was groomsmen to my best friend Jerry wedding today. Jerry met a wonderful girl about two years ago. And about six months ago he proposed to her. And today they’ve finally gotten married in a beautiful and very romantic wedding.
The day started what all of us going to gather to the tuxedo shop at the local mall. We had gone and measured for all our wedding tuxedos last week. And today we picked them up and got dressed. It was my first time being groomsmen in somebody’s wedding. And also my first time wearing a tuxedo. I must admit I looked quite handsome. After that Jerry took all of the groomsmen aside and presented to us our groomsmen gifts. The present I got was a personalized groomsmen knife. It was an engraved beer mug. Since I enjoy drinking now and again, Jerry was kind enough to buy me a very nice personalized mug.
Other and also received their personalized groomsmen gifts. However, one of them complained that his cheap groomsmen gifts were not adequate enough for the job he was doing for his wedding. I find that very hard to believe. In my opinion, the joy and honor of being in someone’s wedding and watching them get married is enough compensation for me. I honestly did not expect a gift period.
