    This is my order for "honored guests"

    FI maternal grandmother - ushered

    FI paternal grandfather

    My grandmother by marriage - ushered

    My aunt - ushered

    My mother - ushered

    FI mother- ushered

    FI father

    My aunt - ushered

    My uncle

    I want my aunt and FI's mother to carry roses that will be used in the rose ceremony involving our daughter. Should the other women carry roses too? I'm not really a fan of corsages. Do they have to carry anything?

    It is completely up to you!  I think it would be fine if all the women carried roses.  If you decide against that, I think it would also look fine if they didn't have anything and only the mothers had a rose or corsage.  For us, the mothers and grandmothers will each have a corsage.

    Our florist said that anything was game-- it was up to us! The mothers will be carrying peonies (a little nosegay because my mother was crazy against corsages... silly mom!), and then my grandmother will have a peony corsage. The fathers will have bouts.  The rest of our family (aunts, uncles, etc) aren't getting anything.

    We had the women wearing pinned corsages and the men wearing bouts.

    Pardon me.  What's a rose ceremony?

    @Momma - We're taking roses from FI mother and our aunt and giving them to our daughter as a symbol of unity instead of candles since our ceremony is outside.
