    I have just sent off an email to my MIL2B showing her the flowers we have ordered and she has asked are we going to get a single flower button hole for all our guests as she thinks it would be a nice gesture.

    We only have 20 people coming to the states and in that 20 4 will have flowers anyway

    What do you all think ???

    I agree with dove
    But because you only have 20 guests perhaps give the wedding party double flower buttonholes and the rest single flower???

    I think keeping it to the bridal party makes more sense... they'll be the ones helping keep guests organised and know-how and things like that so easy to spot :)

    If thats the case babe go with what YOU want! If the guests want button holes im sure they will be able to provide their own.

    i agree with Dove to. We are asking immediate family if they want flowers however they will have to pay for there own unless they are bridesmaid/usher/best man etc

    I think i will suggest that to them and then if they do order for them i think it would look nice as we only have a few guests but still not 100% convinced

    Ive only done wedding party, not for expense as we only have a small wedding but as all the men are in kilts I wanted h2b and best man to stand out a bit.

    My mum also suggested this as I think it was the done thing years ago. But Im not as I think its too expensive. I think just the bridal party should have them.

    If you're quite handy with a needle, you could always make some for the guests. I'm making buttonholes for my h2b, best man and our families out of sparkly buttons and chiffon.

    I found the idea on a website, can send the link if you're interested xx

    I think it's nice for just the bridal party to have them also and like the others say it's more expense but wont be much more for just a few people. At the end of the day it's up to you hun xxx
