    We didn't do any. We saw it as an unnecessary cost.

    The only boutonnieres are going to the groomsmen- though we may change this to just the groom, and no one gets corsages. It's more expensive and we're not honoring anyone lol

    FH is set on NOT having a boutonniere! He's excited about getting a pocket square, so we're just going to give those to the groomsmen. Not sure about dads yet though! Also possibly ceremony musicians but we haven't hired anyone yet.

    Corsages are going to moms, godmothers, and grandmas, the officiant, and 8 of my close friends who aren't bridesmaids. (They are friends from high school, we keep in touch constantly and get together a few times a year even though we live all over the country, but I didn't ask them to be bridesmaids because I couldn't handle 13!)

    Probably groomsmen only for bouts. I doubt we'll do corsages since my mom is the only one who would wear them and she's not a big fan.

    We are not doing any bouts - instead FH will have a pocket square. Corsages are going to our Mothers and FH cousin who is doing a reading.

    Mom's are getting corsages and groom, groomsmen, and dad's are getting bouts. We didn't want to include grandparents since we saw it as unnecessary.

    Bouts for all of the men (groom, best man, groomsmen, dads, officiant, ushers, ring bearer) and corsages for mom, step mom, his mom and his grandma. All a part of our floral package!

    Bouts for FH and the groomsman. My mom hates wearing corsages, so we aren’t doing any. Also I didn’t want to do any extra simply due to cost anyway, so it worked out perfect.

    Moms, grandmothers and bridesmaids all got bouquets! And then boots for FH, fathers, groomsmen and granddads. All of our siblings were in bridal party.

    My mom wants to do corsages for mom’s and grandmas and bouts for groomsmen, dads and grandpas. Personally, I don’t really like them. I think they are an unnecessary cost. Plus they remind me of prom 😬. As a compromise, we will probably just end up doing bouts for groomsmen and maybe dad’s and have the mothers and grandmas hold a rose stem as they walk down aisle.

    Nobody! My fiance is dead set against bouts and I feel corsages are unnecessary.

    We were not going to get them but our florist is amazing and insainly affordable so we decided to get them after all. right now I am conflicted though because I know we are getting bouts for the groom, 4 groomsmen, his dad and step dad, and my dad and coursages for his mom, his step mom, and my mom

    the issue arrises that we would also like to honor his gma and gpa on his mothers side as they are amazing and have always supported us but if we extend to gparents, we would have to pay for 2 more bouts and 4 more coursages
