For your wedding who all gets wedding flowers?

May 272010

I was curious as to whom gets wedding flowers? Obviously the wedding party… but like mom, dad, grandparents?

Traditionally, the bride and her bridesmaids get bouquets, the groom, his groomsmen, the ushers, and the fathers get boutonnieres, and the mothers and grandmothers get corsages.

Any readers or musicians you’re using get boutonnieres or corsages, as well.

But no flowers are required. If you need to limit the flowers, that’s fine – just be careful that whatever you come up with isn’t something that will make it look like you’re favoring some people over others (corsages for the MOB but not the MOG, for example, or for one reader but not another).

EDIT: Nova Queen makes a good point. Stepparents should be treated exactly the same as parents.

What do you think about the stargazer lilly wedding flowers?

May 142010

I am planning a wedding in July and at first thought about doing the turquoise and brown wedding, but now I am leaning more toward turquoise, black, and silver…..I’m wondering, however, if the pink stargazer lilly flowers would look okay to incorporate in with flower arrangements??? Any ideas????

Stargazers are lovely, but they tend to have a … strong scent.

Also, if you plan on having them in your bouquets, make sure you tell your florist to remove the pollen. The pollen is orange and it stains. Easily.

If you really want bright pink flowers (which I think would be beautiful; my girls wore turquoise dresses and carried bright pink bouquets), you might want to consider:
