Flowers to wear
_
There seems to be some confusion in the lingo of Flowers to Wear.
We'd like to clarify.
What a woman wears, such as your mother or your future mother-in-law, is referred to a corsage.
"Corsage refers to the bodice of a dress. In the 19th century, corsage was a common term for a woman's bodice or jacket. Originally, a bouquet of flowers, flower bud, or a bow was worn on the corsage between the breasts, hence the name corsage for a cluster of flowers worn on the breast, waist or wrist." -Wikipedia
We can pretty much assure you that your future mother-in-law is going to be ELATED that she does not have to wear a cluster of flowers between her breasts. Nowdays, they are typically pinned on the bodice on the left, or worn on the wrist. But, If you want it attached to your purse, shoe, belt or wherever else tickles your fancy, we'll be sure to help you out with that.... to some extent.
Regardless of where you put it, if it goes on a lady, it is called a corsage.
What a man wears is referred to a Boutonniere.
They are typically pinned onto the left lapel of his suit/tuxedo jacket.
Boutonnieres are typically designed to be more masculine while still coordinating with the overall theme of the wedding. Who says he has to wear a single rose? NOT US. There are some amazing things out there that can coordinate with the theme and make him excited to wear his boutonniere - not scared of it.
