Just had our second meeting with the florist and a few things came ... wanted to ask you girls what you're doing-
First, if youre grandparents are in the processional are they getting different corsages than your parents? My mom is getting a rose corsage, the florist wanted to know if my grandma should get the same corsage or an orchird instead.
Second, for your bouquets - are the stems fully wrapped or are you leaving some stem exposed at the bottom?
TIA

Re: flower questions
I think I'm going to have the stems completely wrapped because I'm worried about the raw edge rubbing against the dresses and leaving 'grass stains' or water stains.
What we're doing with corsages: the moms are having orchids, the grandmothers 3 roses, and the aunts 2 roses. I would say for the grandma's either a different flower, or a smaller version/different color than the mom's. You want them to somehow coordinate but I think they should be a little different.
Hope this helps!

Re: flower questions
I think I am going to get my grandmothers pin on corsages and the mothers wrist corsages. Or if I decide to get them all wrist, then I will give the grandmothers a different flower than the mothers.
As far as the bouquet, I plan on having some of the stems exposed. There's a pic of my bouquet in my albums.

Re: flower questions
I don't know about the wrapping because my girls are carrying a single callililli. As for the grandmothers, we might not have FH's grandmother walk down. I don't have any and he has 1 left who didn't even come to our engagement party because 'she didn't feel good' but went to Atlantic City the next day! BUT IF she does, we're thinking of the mom's carrying BoK's and we'll give his grandmother something different.
