Test time! What is the difference between a corsage and a boutonniere?

View quoted message

Check out etsy, if you or someone you know is crafty you can also consider faux flowers. I met a woman at the capital wedding show in Ottawa who rents faux flowers out, there are already assembled centerpieces, garlands, she even had arches. I don’t know if you are in the Ottawa area I can share her info, if not, maybe asking around on your local wedding facebook groups might help turn up someone near you who does something like that. She is really affordable, and her stuff is beautiful!

I know a lot of mothers who prefer this too!

I think it’s A) & B) but I’ve seen mother’s wearing boutonnières before, some prefer it.

I just learned this recently!! I initially thought A, but my florist told me no!! Answer is B. Corsages are worn by women only, men only wear boutonnières and not corsages

This. My mum wants a pinned corsage not a wrist one

I thought both A and B, but definitely A

Id have to say A

The answer is A

Corsages by women, boutonnieres by men...?

Not all corsages have ribbons? And you can wear a pinned corsage...

B. Corsages are worn by women, Boutonnieres are worn by men

B: There are some corsages that are pinned on the dress, but we are going with wrist corsages.

*We are potentially mixing it up by having our best woman wear a boutonniere with a suit (if she goes that route)

B. Or maybe A, but I’m going with B.

B) Corsage is worn by women (whether it's on their dress or wrist) and includes more than one flower; Boutonnières are worn by men and typically only includes one flower or bud.

A I think! Although I’ve seen some cool corsage wristlet ideas that i think are funky!

A for this one - I guess if a girl was wearing the flowers in her buttonhole, it would still be a boutonniere.

A) Corsage on the wrist! Boutonniere on the jacket!

A. A corsage is worn on the wrist, I think.

Oh goodness... Looks like I will be guessing for all of these!

My guess: B!
