Groomsman and Bridesmaid Gifts

Apr 04 2013

Most of us spend so much time fixated on getting the wedding right, we tend to forget about the bridesmaid and groomsman who work so hard to make sure the special day is a hit.Feeling thankful and showing gratitude to that bridesmaid or groomsman who has gone out of their way to help you, or to do you a favour is only fair. They are usually a best friend or family member after all.

For the groomsman we think you should let him fly! After all he was probably the wing-man that found you your wife in the first place. We have a variety of flying gifts to choose from.

We have a broad range of flying gifts from our range of Experience Gift Vouchers, taking place in Wicklow, Kilkenny Cork or Dublin. Our Top Seller is our 1-Hour Flight Lesson, which takes place in a Cessna 152 aircraft and includes a pre-flight briefing and then a 1-hour flight, during which the gift recipient will take the controls for 90 per cent of the time (under the guidance of the flight instructor), with a flight certificate presented at the end of the experience. A unique and memorable gift idea. The first thing that you will notice about our training aircraft is that it has long thin wings similar to those of a passenger jet. This feature not only makes the machine more efficient in terms of fuel burn but also allows the pilot to take advantage of rising air currents to soar like an eagle. It also has a beautiful clear canopy giving an unrestricted view of the countryside and the cloudscape. With full dual controls you will have the opportunity to try controlling the airplane yourself, under the supervision of your flight instructor of course.

Flying Lessons

For something more relaxing, that might take your groomsman toward the same direction that you have taken, why not offer him a romantic getaway in the Irish countryside or even abroad. One of our popular breaks is the Newly Developed Kenmare Bay Hotel, Resort & Self Catering Holiday Homes is ideally located on the outskirts of the picturesque town of Kenmare, County Kerry, not far from Killarney. This break offers two nights accommodation for the groomsman or bridesmaid and his/ her partner or even a friend. The break comes packed with Breakfast, Dinner in the Bay Restaurant and a 30 minute spa treatment for the lucky couple.

Two Night Pamper Break in the Kenmare Bay Hotel For 2

For the bridesmaid we have some wonderful gifts. An amazing way to say thank you is with a personalised gift. At GiftsDirect.com we have sourced some fantastic personalised gifts. For example, the Wine and Chocolate personalised bottle gift is a gift that is both cost effective and extremely thoughtful. For a cost of only €45.99 the gift contains a Bottle of Domaine Montplo Rouge, Bottle of Cuvee Montplo Blanc and a box of Butlers Luxury Irish Chocolates.
