Who's getting corsages and bouts?

Groom, best man, groomsmen, officiant, two dads, stepdad, two grandfathers, bridesman, two ushers for boutonnieres. For corsages, two moms, stepmom, three grandmothers

Groom, groomsmen and dads are getting bouts. Moms and my grandmother are getting corsages. We’re setting FHs apart from the rest though with a book page flower 😊

Corsages: My mom, FMIL, his Grandmother, my Aunt / God Mother (doing a reading), and our flower girl

Boutonnieres: FH, My Dad, FFIL, Ring Bearer, BM, GMs, his Uncle / God Father (doing a reading), and his BIL.

We skipped them both, completely do not need them.

Hi Jennifer! Makes sense, as they are an extra and not required/mandatory Out of curiosity, what florals are you including in you and your BMs bouquets?

Ohh such a creative idea, queenbee!

Is it from a specific book in particular? And are you DIYing it?

For corsages - my mom, 2 grandmothers, FH’s 2 sisters, and FH’s godmother; for bouts - my dad, my brother, FH’s brother, FH, 3 groomsmen, and ring bearer. We’re not having any siblings in the bridal party so we wanted to honor them in this way.

Thank you! Yes, we are doing pages from The Hunger Games, which may seem like a strange choice, but FH loved me so much when we first started dating that he read all 3 books in less than 2 weeks (and loved them). He is not a reader, which is why it is so special to our relationship! We still love all things Hunger Games, and will be incorporating little things into the wedding.

I will be making the flowers myself. I need to get started, as I am also putting a few in my bouquet!

Aww! That's super meaningful and totally cute! Such a great DIY idea!

Feel free to share a pic of your bouquet when you've added these paper flowers to it, as well! We'd love to see!

Bouts: groomsmen, ring bearer ..possibly dad (not sure if he’s in) we’ll probably pin the flowers on the moms/grandmothers also..not a fan of the corsages anymore.

I'm doing bouts and arm corsages

Only our bridal party and parents will have them!
