Check their registry and select a gift that screams "RUDEY!"

A subscription to 'Playboy' or 'Sports Illustrated.'
Tickets to a big game.
Alcohol related gifts are also big! 
Giving money is tacky. If this is your friend, surely you can think of something better--from the heart.

Stop.
We. Are. Men.
Money is not tacky.
I suppose as boys we could make up a collage of photos from our fraternity days and put it into a cool frame that plays some type of theme song when a button is pressed?
Or a screensaver that does the same?
I feel sick just thinking about it.

So, men, by default, have to be tacky?  Y'all are wack.
No one said to decoupage a paddle for your bud; but it's his wedding day. One or one half of a day to not be an ass. It wouldn't hurt to get him a magazine subscription. Just give him something nice.

PS--Don't get sick. Unless you have morning sickness.

I don't know where to find registry stuff. It's not on the card.
I guess I'll do cash but the thing is I don't think any amount of money I give will be more than a drop in a bucket to them. I thought it might be impersonal too but I'm not good at thinking of personal gifts for dudes unless they involve something the wife will hate me for. I dunno. Thanks party people.

Is it me or is the gift supposed to be for your buddy and his wife?
GET THE SHEETS LIKE I SAID.
DO IT NOW.
(Sorry. I'm dealing with some anger issues)
Please do it now.

Rudy - CALL YOUR BUD!!!
Better yet, odds are better than anything that they're registered with at least one of the following places: Macy's, Bed Bath & Beyond, Linens & Things, Target, and/or Home Depot/Loews. You can check online. It's easy. Even you can do it.
I would check the registery before you decide to make up your own gift. My friend registered for a grill. Men can buy a grill without fear of being girly.
If there's nothing on the reigstery that you want to get them; I vote for cash with a simple card.

I registered for power tools and a fire extinguisher. I think we got towels and crystal and a bunch of stuff like that, but when we registered for that stuff, I was taking a break from studying from finals, so I have a very spotty recollection of those things.

Check the registries at wedding channel and the knot. Chances are the couple is registered at either site or one of their affiliates.

Seriously, I would get like a gift card to his favorite store or something like that, or some power tool of some sort so he could work on a house or a car. That's guy like.

Wedding Gifts Because I Care
Crate and Barrel has a registry.
Get them a wine of the month membership for a year.
