Golfing Groomsmen

I have been working on him for weeks, and I was finally able to get Mr. Avocado to agree to the groomsmen gift I had discovered. We didn't have the budget to give them anything that they would want to keep for a long time (which is ideal if you are going to put money into buying an object) so we started looking around for "experience gifts" instead. We wanted something more personal than gift cards, and it just so happens that our reception venue had the perfect solution!

As I am awkwardly demonstrating we will be treating the groomsmen to an hour of golfing in the virtual golf club at Hotel 1000! I think that my form in the photo below shows you why they will not be inviting the bride down for a round.


The club offers a variety of course options, which means that they will be able to experience the excitement of Pebble Beach and still make it to the ring ceremony on time. I assume they will want to do a little competing, and the longest drive or closest to the pin competition options should be just what they are looking for.

Did you give your groomsmen an "experience gift"?
