    I dont feel the need or desire to have my guys wear bouts or have other people such as grandmothers and moms wearing the corsages. Is that ok to do?

    I'm not having the groomsmen wear bouts. I think its totally fine. I'm having my mom and his mom wear corsages and possibly have our dads wear bouts just to set them apart and honor them in a way. I don't think its a big deal though. My groomsmen aren't wearing jackets but my dad and his dad probably will

    @shannon marie:  I say its your wedding do what you want.  Just remember Grandparents are from a generation where they expect those things so you may want to talk to them about that ahead of time.

    Ok, good. My guys arent wearing jackets either and were going for a minimalist look. And I know my mom wont care about the corsage, she says they just get in the way. I am worried that his grandparents will expect it.

    @LovebirdSC: I totall agree that our Grandparents generation expect them. I don't know how much corsages run in Texas, but here in Philly, they were only like $10 each, nothing fancy so it wasn't a budget breaker for me.  I know the older women loved them and I gave them a choice of wrist or pin-on.
