- When selecting a flask the main choices you have to consider are the size, shape and material of the flask. Most flasks are made to be kept at the hip and are shaped accordingly, though other shapes include round or triangle shaped flasks or flasks that look like other objects, such as a cell phone. Flasks are typically made with stainless steel, though you can choose from designs using materials such as pewter and gold or designs with glass windows installed so you can see the contents inside.
- Flasks for groomsmen gifts are traditionally engraved to commemorate the occasion. Most groomsmen flasks are usually personalized with either the name or the monogram of the recipient. You may also want to engrave the date of the wedding, the names of the couple getting married or special titles such as "Best Man" on the flask to further commemorate the wedding. Just keep in mind that most engraving places charge by the letter or word, so keep it short and simple to save some money.
- While a metal flask with an engraving is a traditional groomsmen gift, you don't have to feel obligated to go the usual route. Many gift shops carry metal flasks that are covered in decorative leather for protection, style and ease of use. Some metal flasks feature logos instead of engraving. Flask logos include professional and college sports teams or liquor manufacturers. If your groomsmen smoke buy them a flask with a built in cigarette or cigar holder.
- Drinking flasks are made for holding alcohol, which can be a problem if some of the groomsmen do not drink. Some men choose not to drink for personal or health reasons, while other groomsmen may not yet be of age. An alternative gift for groomsmen who do not drink is an aluminum drinking bottle. These reusable bottles can hold water or other types of non-alcoholic liquid and can be also be engraved like flasks so that the groomsman who receives it will not feel left out.
