When it comes to wedding flowers, many couples wonder who should carry or wear what. Here’s a sweet and simple breakdown to help you plan your floral personals with ease:
Bridal Bouquet – The showstopper! This one’s for the bride, of course. It’s the floral piece that reflects your style and ties the whole floral story together. This one is a MUST! Will be in most of your photos throughout the day as well so you really want to make the investment to ensure it is something created beautifully!
Bridesmaids’ Bouquets – Smaller versions of the bridal bouquet, these are for your ladies walking down the aisle with you. They add beauty, symmetry, and a pop of color to your ceremony. These are commonly repurposed in reception as centerpieces as well!
Boutonnieres – Typically worn by the groom, groomsmen, fathers, grandfathers, and officiant. These little blooms pin to a lapel and add a charming, tailored touch.
Corsages – Perfect for mothers and grandmothers, corsages can be worn on the wrist or pinned to a dress. They’re a beautiful way to honor the women who raised you.
Mini Bouquets – A new and trendy alternative to corsages for mothers and grandmothers. They are smaller versions of bridesmaids’ bouquets and add a dainty touch for your loved ones. They are easy to carry and can be repurposed in the reception in a small vase as an additional accent pieces.
Extras (Optional but Lovely!) – Flower girls often carry petals, a mini bouquet, or a floral crown. Ring bearers can wear a boutonniere too. And don’t forget floral touches for readers, musicians, or anyone you want to feel extra special.
Flowers aren’t just beautiful—they’re a way to honor the people who’ve played a meaningful role in your love story.
