im getting church flowers &bouquets for me and the bridesmaids obviously. im getting button holes for the groom, groomsmen, our mams, his dad, my brother, his 2 sisters, our grannys&my uncle who is giving me away. i think dat comes to 13. not getting ones for h2bs sil or my brothers very-long-term girlfriend. the grannys was a personal choice, kinda want to make a big deal of them. no bouquets for our mothers at the reception. i dont see the point of them really.

Hi there, no it's not necessary at all, it is, like most things wedding related, your choice. Some of my brides do include siblings for buttonholes and corsages, but it is entirely up to you regarding your budget, and whether they would like to wear one. As for grandmothers, here I have to say, ettiquette dictates that yes, they should have a corsage provided for them, and it's nice for them to feel special. HTH a bit.

I am getting them for my brothers and h2b's brothers and sisters. My own SIL is in the bridal party. My inlaws want flowers for their partners and children too, and their children's partners. They obviously think I am made of money :frown Not happening.

Hi, I'm going with buttonholes for grooms men,the 2 dads, my brothers and our page boy. Corsages for the mums and all my sisters who are not all bridesmaids. No bouquets for the mums.... they are welcome to bring home whatever arrangements they want. Whoops that sounds so mean!
