Also tell your FI Reef just came out with new flip flops that have a 3 oz flask in the heel of each one!!!!!

That is really creative and interesting. I will have to look into those!!!!

My FI got his guys the Reef Flip Flops with the Flask in them. The review said that Reef flip flops in general are really comfortable, but the flasks tend to leak and are small.. he didn't care and said the idea of having a flask in your shoe is cool and very different. We have a friend with the bottle opener and he LOVES them.

i told him about them and he was like 'so?'...what a snot.

 

i think the problem is that HE would want a flask - and then never use it....

would your guys use it?

I will probably get them the reef shoes with the bottle opener...

To be honest, my FI has about 3 of these flasks from weddings he was in, and I have NEVER seen him use them.

Yeah, we are getting the Reefs with the flasks. Once we arrive, we're going to geteach GM a bottle of Dominican Run and fill up the flask with whatever wil fit. Then, give them the flops to wear at the wedding and the rest of the rum as well. They can do a "toast" by drinking the rum out of their flops.

 

Tom thinks it's the coolest idea ever ... and who cares if they leak? Not like they'll probably ever use the flas again .... but it'll be cool to tell people about it! lol

We were going to do the engraved flask or zippo, but 2 of the gm's don't drink but they smoke, 3 of them don't smoke but they drink. Instead we got each one something we knew they would like.

 

We went shopping in Mexico the day before the wedding and got them each something that suits them (painting, glassware, etc.) It worked well for us plus it was a souvenir from PV so that was cool.

 

Side note, I got my brother the reef bottle opener sandals and he loves them but he doesn't use the opener because he says it gets dirty from being walked on. I still think it's a cool gimmick though (and I bet he'd use it if he were stranded with a beer in the woods!) The flask ones sound neat!

We are thinking about either doing the reef sandals, or a pair of ray bans or oakley sunglasses. I am just afraid of picking out sunglasses for everyone.
