The Bride: Gone are the days when the bride carries a simple bouquet of white flowers. Nowadays you can carry anything you like – from a shower arrangement to a single flower to a trailing wrist corsage. Whatever it is, make sure that you select the main flower that will be the focus of your flower design and ensure that it matches the theme of your wedding.

The Groom : Traditionally the groom wears two flowers in his left buttonhole, and the bloom tends to match the one that features in the bride’s bouquet.

Best Men/Fathers: Also wears a double bloom in their left buttonhole but it can be any flower of your choice.

Mothers: The mothers of the bride and groom traditionally wear a corsage that matches the couple’s colour scheme, the bride’s bouquet or possibly the mothers’ outfits.

Ushers: Usually a single bloom in their left buttonhole. Increasingly wrist corsages are becomingly popular for the women ushers.

Pageboy: Usually mirrors the best man’s, but smaller, in keeping with a child’s proportion.
