What are your opinions on having boutonnieres for the groomsmen/male family members? We're debating on having them simply because although it'd be nice - by cutting them out, we cut our flower budget by $250 - which would be amazing!
So did you/will you have boutonnieres for your wedding? Have you ever noticed someone not having them and thought anything about it? Will it be ok to not have boutonnieres yet still have bouquets?
Re: Boutonnieres - Yay or Nay?
ETA: To answer your question, yes, it's totally okay to not have bouts. We kind of feel obligated to have them so that the immediate family members who aren't in the wedding party won't feel so left out (at least that's what FI says...)
We are skipping them. I was actually ok paying for them but FI said he thinks they are stupid and didn't want them so I happily obliged! Also, not doing any flowers for parents. Literally 3 bouquets and we're done.
We ordered them for the groomsmen, FI, ring bearer and our fathers, they weren't that expensive. I'm getting a bouquet and the BM are getting flowers so why not for the guys.
