How to give out corsages and boutonnieres?

I feel like I'm going nuts. I've searched high and low without answers. I know who I'm giving corsages and boutonnieres too but how do I give them out? Are they gifts that should be presented a certain way by certain people? Or should I just designate someone to hand them out? We don't have a florist and will be doing all the flowers ourselves. Please help!

I was so busy on wedding day that I'm pretty sure my photographer or coordinator helped make sure they got to the right people. I actually don't even know who, haha! But there's no need to make it a big formal presentation if you don't want to. Just put a sticky or note on each one that indicates who it is for, and if you need to ask for help, that's totally fine!

Our coordinator handed them all out, and helped the guys put theirs on.

My FH was in a wedding recently and they just had boutonnieres on a large tray type thing that was in the room where the guys got ready. Each grabbed one when they were ready and the coordinator and photographer helped put them on. It doesn't have to be anything special or crazy that you need to put a ton of thought into if you don't want!

No they aren’t gifts. Most of the time the florist brings them in a box and they are passed around to those who are getting one. There’s no ceremony to it. But make sure that they go to the correct people (with a list as necessary) and have someone help attach them.

The event planner at our venue said she will handle that. I’ll have names on them to make it as easy on her as possible but I too am overthinking it LOL

Our day of coordinator just took all the boutonnieres and when the guys arrived, she pinned them all on herself

We just gave them out before the ceremony started. Our photographer helped the guys put the boutannieres on. There isn't any sort of formal presentation required
