wrist or pin-on corsages?

I was just looking back at my sister's wedding pictures to see what flowers she used for my mom and her MIL and I noticed she used wrist corsages.

I didn't even think about it - do you ususally use a wrist or pin-on corsage for the Moms? Now I'm wondering if the pin-on corsage could interfere with their dresses.

my mom chose to wear her's pinned on her dress, and my MIL wore hers as a corsage. i think my grandma wore it on her wrist too....

either way...whatever is more comfortorable for them ;o)

Yeah they usually have both---my mom wanted a bouquet so she had that, MIL wore wrist corsage.

didn't even think about a pin corsage for the ladies, actually... both moms have gorgeous dresses, so I definitely don't want anything getting in the way of those! wrist corsages all the way for me.

Both, so the decision can me made later. I think my Mom would prefer wrist.

I like the little clutch BoK idea better, but Mom wasn't a big fan.

My mom enjoys a little bo-k she can hod- she did this for my sisters' wedding, so I will probably do that again

Wrist corsages are easier. Pin-on can sometimes fall off and can snag the dress.

MIL wore hers on her wrist and my mom wore hers as a pin on

My florist made them both ways and they decided how they wanted to wear it. My mom wore it pinned on and my DH sisters wore hers on her wrist.

My mom and FMIL are carrying mini bouquets. I think my florist (pedestals) called them fingertips.

same thing here we are using Pedestals and went with the nosegay bouquets for the moms -- both moms said they'd prefer them versus corsages since they can be irritating to wear.
