Santa Rosa, Calif. (PRWEB) November 8, 2007 — Fresh from their December/January issue, Modern Bride’s deluxe cheat sheet “100 Best Websites for your Wedding” offers busy couples a crème de la crème guide to wedding vendors in every sector, no comparison shopping or Google coma necessary. Clocking in at forty-two is GroomStand.com, a luxury groomsmen gifts site created by internet marketing firm Portent Interactive.
Calling the site “testosterone-filled,” Modern Bride cited GroomStand’s combination of classic and unique personalized groomsmen gifts as reasons for the site’s high ranking. The crowning feature that sealed the site’s top fifty spot was GroomStand’s high-spirited “Marrying Man of the Month” contest. Within this fun proposal play-off, celebrities, software moguls, and average grooms alike compete for the “Marrying Man”crown. The result is a healthy-sometimes surprising- mix of winners that validates this site’s reputation not just for quality groomsmen gifts, but for male-friendly wedding innovation.
“It is an honor to place on such a prestigious list,” said Shopping Stand, Inc. CEO Ramin Ramhormozi, owners of GroomStand. “As a site focused on personalized groomsmen gifts, we cater to a unique niche in a formerly-overlooked market, and it feels great to have that acknowledged in this respected publication.”
Indeed, despite the modern wealth of websites to accompany (almost) every wedding planning industry, GroomStand is one of only two groom-oriented sites to make Modern Bride’s renowned “Top 100″ list. Sharing the honor with information hub Groom411, GroomStand is the single groom-centered e-commerce site to make this round-up. While Modern Bride is clearly a bridal-themed publication, such an elite mention underscores that GroomStand is the definitive spot for distinguished groomsmen gifts, as well as a leader in the groundbreaking groom-oriented wedding sector.
