It is a personal gift that can last a lifetime and preserve memories of the wedding day itself. It can be difficult to know what type of cufflinks to buy; here are our tips for choosing the perfect Wedding Cufflinks for a groom, a best man or groomsmen. More generally of course, cufflinks are perfect to wear for work or for other special occasions.
High Quality Cufflinks
Cufflinks are worn repeatedly so need to be made of quality materials that stand the test of time. Brass or stainless steel are excellent choices as they are durable and will last for years.
For the cufflink fastening, choose a hinged back pair of cufflinks. These have a hinge at the back that can turn 360 degrees. The hinge is rotated to be in line with the cufflinks to allow the cufflinks to be put on the shirt cuff. Then the hinge can be turned by 90 degrees to secure each cufflink on the shirt cuff so it cannot fall off.
For wedding cufflinks or indeed cufflinks for any occasion, the quality of workmanship is also important. Go for cufflinks that have been hand crafted rather than machine made in bulk, also choose a pair where the design has been carefully thought through and executed to a high standard.
Designer Cufflinks
A groom wants to look really stylish on his wedding day, so opting for a pair of designer cufflinks is a sensible way to go.

Colored Cufflinks
Many brides carefully choose a wedding color scheme that stamps their personality on the day; the groom’s outfit and cufflinks should beautifully compliment the color scheme. Cufflinks are available in a variety of colors that can match the colour scheme really well. The most popular colors for grooms are blue, black or pink.

Novelty Cufflinks
Novelty wedding cufflinks for the groom can also work very well indeed. You can choose cufflinks that say something about hobbies, a favorite sport or his career.

A doctor could wear a pair of stethoscope cufflinks or an engineer could wear protractor and set square cufflinks, the choice is so wide! There are a huge variety of novelty cufflinks to choose from depending on taste and personality.
A Cufflink Box
