Should my sister get a corsage if she is also the moh and will have a bouquet?

Robin, on June 28, 2019 at 4:51 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 6

I'm having a very small, simple wedding and I was only originally planning to get a corsage for my mom (my fiance's mother is no longer with us.) My sister mentioned to me that I should get a corsage for all the special female family members who will be there to identify them as close family members.. I don't like corsages and think they are out dated, but I could tell my sister was really passionate about this tradition. My sis is also my maid of honor and will have a bouquet. Should I still get her a corsage? If it is tradition and I don't get her one, I know she will be hurt. I thought the bouquet would serve as the flowers for her and she wouldn't need a corsage too. Am I wrong?

    The bouquet is good enough, too much flowers if you get her a corsage as well!

    Agreed- the bouquet is enough. Plus everyone will know she's the MOH when she's standing next to you.

    No it's really only for the other members like your mom or grandma that aren't in the direct bridal party. If the bridesmaids get bouwuets then they don't need corsages

    Yes, I think if she'll have a bouquet, she doesn't need a corsage too. That would just be too much.

    I've never heard of this "tradition" before. I've only seen corsages given to mothers and grandmothers, and even then it depends on the families involved. Not everyone does this.

    She doesn’t need a corsage. She’s your MOH, everyone knows she’s a VIP.

    I think the corsage is unnecessary. I feel like it would be bulky with her bouquet, most likely holding yours as well during the ceremony, and the corsage. Normally corsages are for mother’s or grandmothers and stuff like that
