I'm just wondering who has what with flowers - i know the bride has a bouquet and my bridesmaids are going to have corsages. But out of the grooms party, who has button holes? And do parents of the bride and groom normally have them too? Sorry- lots of questions! x

We had bouquets for me and my bridesmaid (bridesmaid's was a smaller version of mine), a little basket with petals in for my flower girl and we did buttonholes for groom, best man, ushers (OH's best friend and two of my sisters), parents, my step-parents, my gran and OH's nan

My flower girls are having wands rather then the traditional basket.

I've got bouquets for my bridesmaids and I will have one for me too.
Got button holes for groom then different ones for best men, ushers and dads. Will be getting corsages for two mums and two nans.
My flower girl will only be 14 months old (her first birthday is today) so I haven't got her anything as she might not be walking. Haven't decided on whether to get button hole for page boy yet (he will be 5) but won't be in a jacket, just shirt and waistcoat)

Thank you everyone that's really helpful! Mine and my partners parents are both split up and remarried- do we include step parents too? Where do we stop? Haha xx

You know it's so good having these forums. I hadn't thought about flowers for the Mums at all. Will be adding buttonholes for them to my list

Vikkih53 - have you thought of a teddy bear dressed in the same colour dress as the bridesmaids dresses for your flower girl? Or maybe a little wand with some coloured ribbon?
Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

I'd include step parents if you have a parent-style relationship, but if they married in after you'd already grown up and you don't see them as parents I probably wouldn't.

We're just doing buttonholes for the best man, OH's dad (who is a 2nd best man) and my dad. Bouquets for me and the bridesmaids. A sign for my flower girl. Nothing for the mum's or step parents.
