Flowers for the Moms

Stephanie, on July 21, 2020 at 7:11 PM Posted in Style and Décor 1 13
Hi ladies!


I’m having a “micro wedding” in a few weeks because of COVID 🙄 and want to know what people think about flowers for the moms?? Corsage? Mini bouquet? No flowers?
I’m most concerned about pictures at this point and the dads will have boutonnières. The mom flowers aren’t too expensive so it’s just an extra I can ask the florist to do. What do we think? Does anyone have strong feelings or pictures?

    We had corsages for our moms. I have never seen the moms carry flowers.

    I think corsages are always nice, especially if it’s not an outrageous expense. Plus I feel like moms love flowers 😊 at least mine does anyway ❤️

    Corsages are common for mothers. Although I’ve read that some people don’t like them (the itchy elastic band) and prefer a mini bouquet so that’s another option. You can ask your mom to see if she has a preference for one over the other.

    I did corsages for the mothers and grandmothers. They were pretty. I don’t think they’re completely necessary but I wouldn’t do just bouts and no corsages. Flowers for the Moms 1

    I agree to definitely give the mothers flowers too. I know the cheap elastic bands can be annoying, but at the flower shop I used to work at be had nicer bracelets that we used instead (like in Mrs. S’s picture) and didn’t have the complaints. The other option is pin on corsages, you could ask the mothers their preference.

    We did corsages for our moms. During planning, we asked if they preferred ribbon, stretchy bands, or slap bracelet style bands.

    Our moms and my brother's girlfriend are getting wrist corsages for our mini wedding. I think my grandmother is getting a pin corsage. If you're interested in something different, ask your florist about floral hoops. That's what our mothers and my bridesmaid are getting at our reception next year, and I'm pretty excited about them.

    I say corsages for the Moms for sure! It's a nice little extra touch and I'm sure they'll appreciate it. It will look nice in photos too.

    We’re doing boutonnières for our moms, since they don’t like wearing things on their wrist. It will make feel special.
