Flowers for MOB & MOG

What type of flowers did you do for your MOB and MOG?

My mom doesn't really want a corsage, are there any other options??

Thanks!

Since we're DIYing all immediate family members are getting bouts.

That's also a traditional Chinese thing to do. All family gets bout but we're trimming it down to immediate family only. No uncles, cousins, etc.

My mom is having a nosegay with white roses - she hates corsages. FMIL is getting a corsage.

My mom actually hushed me and told my florist what she wanted....so she is getting a corsage with 3 orchids on it. We got the same for FMIL.

They could do a nosegay, which is like a little bouquet. We are just using roses.

Agreed. Ours were $10 each, white orchids.

Re: Flowers for MOB & MOG

Would it be rude if I didn't give FMIL a choice between a nosegay or a corsage and just choose for her?? lol!

My mom asked for gardenias in her corsage.. We are having 2 corsages (my mom and his mom) and the 3rd flower we are floating in the ladies room....(my florist had to order 3 of these flowers at a time...)
I made my mom happy by getting her favorite flower, so it made me happy... My MIL is passed and he still wanted a corsage like my mom..(made me sad for him) so he will bring it to the cemetry in the am before the wedding and leave it for her...
