    Just a brief question as i compile the list for my florist...

    I have the following on my list:

    Parents, Grandparents, Uncles, Aunts, First Cousins (peers), Helpers.

    People have told me that first cousins are not necessary, some disagree.

    Same with helpers (Like Ushers, Guestbook / Gift personnel...)

    What do you bride-to-be do?

    Hmmm, for our wedding, the following people are getting bouts/corsages:

     Groom, Best Man, Ring Bearer, FOB, MOB, MOG. Possibly ushers, but most likely not. Mr. Kiwi isn't close with his grandma so she's not getting anything, but I would include grandparents, if he was.

     

    First cousins? Nope. I have too many, and they're not playing any important role, so I think t hat's fine.

    all parents, all g-parents, groomsmen, ushers, RB, FG, that's it.  i have never heard of cousins or aunts.  my florist didnt have those blanks on the list when we went through what to order.  i think ushers should have bouts though - esp if they paid to get a tuxedo.  they are just sometmies a little simpler than the GMS and it's not a very big cost.  oh yeah,  i added a corsage for my reader too.

    For our wedding the bouts will go to: Groom, BM, GMs, FOB, FOG, grandfathers, and BIL not participating in wedding party

    The corsages will go to: MOB, MOG, Sisters/SILs not participating in the wedding party, grandmothers, and a reader. 

    We're not having ushers, guest book attendants or gift table attendants.

     

    Hope that helps!

    I wanted to mention that the ushers are just going to walk down the mothers, one usher for each mom, and that's his only job and he's not buying a suit or renting a tux. Does that make sense? We're also not having guest book attendants or gift table ones, either.

     

    I have a question: what about readers?

    I'm planning it:

    boutineres:
    Groom
    best man/groomsmen
    father of the bride
    father of the groom
    my brothers
    grandfather

    MAYBE my uncles... not sure yet.

    corsages:
    mother of the bride
    mother of the groom
    my grandmother

    MAYBE my aunts... not sure yet.  i'll probably have to though.

    if i have ushers (meaning my sister's friends that she invited and i'm putting them to work) then i'll get them one.
