7 months to go! [flower help]

Mandi, on August 28, 2019 at 7:04 PM Posted in Planning 0 4
Hello ladies!
I'm officially 7 months out today! And it just hit me that I should probably order flowers in the next 2 months. I'd like your help figuring out what exactly I need to order.

So here we go.
1 - Bride
4 - Bridesmaids
1 - Groom
4 - Groomsmen
1 - Female usher
1 or 2 - Male ushers
1 - MOB
1 - FOB
1 - MOG
1 - FOG
3 - grandmothers
1 - grandfather
2 - ring bearers
2 - flower girls
1 - flower girl escort

I believe we are doing a mother's rose ceremony as well.

But I have no idea what to do past bride/bridesmaid bouquets.

Please enlighten me with your wisdom!

    Beyond the bride & bridesmaids' bouquets, we are doing boutonnieres for groom, groomsmen, FOB, FOG; wrist corsages for MOB & MOG (I think); boutonniere and/or corsage for whoever we ask to do readings; and a bit of greenery for the church pews that can be reused at our reception. My florist had me fill out a form with my interests, ceremony/reception details, and proposed budget. I pinned some things I liked on a private Pinterest board and shared it with them ahead of time. I didn't have a ton of opinions, but they made it really easy!

    Hey Mandi!

    I have written a list of flower arrangements that you will most likely need, or can consider getting for your wedding.

    Obviously, your bridal bouquet and bouquets for your BMs. Will you be wanting any fresh flowers for in your hair? (Just something to consider!)

    You will need boutonnieres for the groom and the GMs, you can also get these for the FOG, FOB, ushers, grandfathers, and ring bearers if you wish.

    Then you could get corsages for the MOB, MOG, female usher and grandmothers.

    You can discuss flower decorations with your florist and plan to be able to use them for both your ceremony and reception.

    Do you know of any flowers that you want to be included or a color scheme you want to stick to?

    Thanks! I am planning on ordering comic book flowers from Etsy. I dont really like flowers, and this is the only way I considered doing flowers at all.

    Oh my goodness, I just searched comic book flowers and they are amazing!! They are so interesting!

    Are you having a comic book-themed wedding? Or are you just a huge fan?
