Who gets flowers at your wedding??
One thing that ALWAYS comes up when I meet with couples is boutonnières and corsages.
“Do people even do them anymore?”
“I guess my dad needs one, my mom, sister, aunt, uncle, cousin…?”
“Does my officiant need one too?”
Here’s a little cheat sheet of what I tell my couples:
Firstly, who do you want to have them? (That’s honestly all that matters!)
🌱Wedding Party: most of the time, yes
🌱Parents: typically, but only if each of your parents gets one. Be sure to communicate with moms about wrist corsages so that they can plan their jewelry 🤍
🌱Other Family: not usually, but often grandparents
🌱Officiant: typically only if they are close to you, like a family member or friend (vs a professional)
Ultimately, you get to decide who receives flowers. It’s a nice way of communicating to guests that “Hey, this person is really important to us!”
Twisted Bramble as books open for 2027 and 2028 and is ready to answer any flower question you have 🤍
PS: we’re more than happy to talk through all the options… wrist corsage, floral lapel, pin on boutonnière vs a pocket square boutonnière, something totally unique and bespoke… we gotchu!
