    Groom, Best Man, FOB, FOG, Ushers - Ladies have corsages which have more flowers in than a buttonhole. I always advise against ordering buttonholes for every guest as, generally speaking, most people don't actually like wearing them. Hope that helps.

    We've ended up getting flowers for everyone - which as there are only 6 of us, is not as bad as it first sounds!!?

    Me,Groom, FOB and BM were all getting anyway but felt that the 2 remaining ladies in the party (BM's wife and FOB's partner) might feel a little left, out so will be ordering corsages for them too. Will also poss get a spare couple for OH's and my mums (who won't actually be with us on the day)

    And I have Corsages for Grandma and my future Mother in law.

    My Mum has said she'll sort her own (Fussy).

    We are getting 'buttonholes' for all our guests but that is only because we are making a donation to The Royal British Legion and having poppies as our buttonholes.

    (Our wedding is the week before Remembrance Sunday)
