Boutonniers and Corsages Help

Countryangel707, on January 29, 2024 at 8:54 AM Posted in Planning 0 2
I am having a hard time deciding who to give boutonnieres and corsages to. I know traditionally they go to wedding party, parents, and grandparents. We are not having a wedding party except for a ring bearer and a flower girl. I was thinking just having my dad, fiance, and ring bearer have a boutonniere and not do corsages. I also thought of giving my fiance's grandmother who passed away an honorary corsage in her reserved seat and my grandfather who passed away last month an honorary boutonniere in his reserved seat. The reason we are having difficulty deciding is because I have both a stepmom and stepdad and my fiance has a stepdad. I would be fine giving my stepmom a corsage, but I'm not super close to my stepdad as I was an older teenager when he became my stepdad. I just don't want to leave anyone out or upset anyone. Any ideas or brides who had a similar experience?

    We just eliminated corsages and boutonnieres altogether. It made it so much easier and more cost-effective! Plus, no one seemed to care whether they had one, and no one even noticed they were gone.

    I would have corsages and boutonnieres for the ring bearer, your fiancé, both stepdads, and stepmom. I would not purchase any to set on a chair in memory of.

    If you don't want to leave anyone out or not hurt anyone's feelings, I don't know why you wouldn't purchase flowers for the steps. They are still "family".
