I want to find some kind of quote about brotherhood, comraderie, or friendship.  Has to be short enough to be engraved on a lower reciever.  it will be a gift for my groomsmen which include friends and brother.

Long, but maybe you could hack some parts out and make it your own:

From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother.

FRIENDSHIP QUOTES

This one, perhaps my favorite:

"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company."

In union there is strength.  ~Aesop



This would not only reference your friendship with them, but also the "union" is the occassion it represents, a wedding.

If you're getting married, you should engrave something like 'Alea Iacta Est' on the receivers. ('The die is cast', what Caesar reportedly said when he crossed the Rubicon, signaling he's fully committed now.) Or "Atque in perpetuum, frater, ave atque vale." (And so, my brother, hail, and farewell evermore!), by the Roman poet Catullus.
