When is a good time and who gives the groomsmen their wedding party gifts? I just don’t know. Is it before the wedding, after the wedding, or should I give them at the rehearsal dinner?

Traditionally the gifts to bridesmaids/groomsmen are given by the bride/groom respectively during/after the rehearsal dinner. However, you can certainly do this on your own timeline!
Generally all the gifts to groomsmen and bridesmaids are given at the rehearsal dinner, by the bride and groom!
At the rehearsal dinner, the groom should be giving the gifts.
Usually gifts for the groomsmen and ushers are given by the groom. I’ve seen it mostly done at the rehearsal dinner, but anytime the groom wants to give them the gifts is fine.
Usually, the groom is responsible for buying and giving the groomsman gifts and the bride buys and gives the bridesmaid gifts. However, if they’re all mutual friends, they should be given the gifts by both the bride and the groom together.
I think the gifts are usually given at the rehearsal dinner, but if it’s something like cufflinks that you want them to wear at the ceremony, it may be a good idea to give them their gifts a few days in advance, just so they can practice wearing their tux with it.
