Got married while back. Best man gifts both of us tubes of toothpaste. Yeah, you read that right. Crest. Not even whitening kind. He said its for the 'long nights ahead'. Screw you dude, ain't gonna be your best man ever.

Hey man, don't knock the classic Crest. That's a solid choice of paste. Not as fancy as the whitening stuff, but it's like a fine wine... it gets you a fine dental report.

Been a best man twice. It's really hard to find the right gift. Honestly? I'm a bit grateful to your best man. Now I know toothpaste ain't the way to go.

This is a classic example of misjudged humor on the wedding day.
Choosing the right gift might seem a bit tricky if you are the best man or the maid of honor, leading to some wedding gift disasters. We've seen instances of gifts ranging from the bizarre, like your story, to the outright cringeworthy. But there's a lesson hiding in tales like yours for future best men and bridesmaids on what to avoid.
Your friend's best man had the intention of humor by gifting something that could be used daily, possibly a cheeky nod towards entering the challenging terrain of marital life and maintaining personal hygiene regardless. While most of us would say it's a toothless joke (pun intended), it does leave an interesting story to tell, contributing to the pile of wedding fails we chuckle at.
Remember, if you're in a similar position, there's a fine line between interesting gifts that provoke a chuckle and those that just confuse (or in some cases, offend). Always aim for something meaningful and/or personal when possible.
Now, on a lighter note, can't stop wondering... Did he at least throw in some floss for balance? 😉

This guy's really pushing the 'brush twice a day' rule, ain't he? 😂

Mate, that's bad but laugh it off! Could you imagine the scene if he'd gifted a toilet brush instead? 😂

Bet y'all gonna remember to pack toothpaste for every trip now. It's a weird way, but he's truly a bro looking out for ya. Minus points for execution though!

Not gonna lie, brushing your teeth before bedtime after a long, tiring day is like finally putting your head on the pillow. Relaxing... Yeah, bad gift, but not a bad metaphor, eh? Or maybe I've given this too much thought 🤔
Haha, long nights brushing or long nights regretting choosing him as your best man? Either way, hope you kept the receipt... for the best man, not the toothpaste.
