? from an 07er about bouts/corsages for siblings that weren't in the wedding party.

Did you get boutinierrs (sp?) and corsages for siblings that weren't in the wedding party? This seems to be an added expense. One of the main reasons is because FH has a brother who is a cold fish and will appear to be bored at our wedding and just sit there (keep in mind he's 40), so I really don't want him to be acknowledged or stand out.

My brother's did readings or brought up the gifts and for that, they got boutinierre's. This is really up to you as to what you want. Personally, save the $$.

i didnt. i didnt even think about it! i dont thin they will expect them, so you could pass on that unless you really want them to have them.

We did but only for those who were involved in the ceremony... ie my brother and SIL did the reading therefore they got flowers. I don't think it's necessary if they're not involved the wedding ceremony in some way.

I wasn't in my brother's wedding and I didn't get a corsage. I never even thought I would.
