Flowers for female "best man"

We're not sure what to call her yet but our bridal party consists of our two female best friends, one on each side.  I want my maid of honour to carry a small bouquet but I'm not sure what is best for the "best woman".  Has anyone been to a wedding with a female on the groom's side?  Did she have a corsage?  Small bouquet?  Something else?  Any advice is welcome!

    My FI has two groomswomen standing up with him so I was thinking about doing corsages for them.

    Ask her what she would be comfortable with.  Is she wearing a dress?  

    ETA: She could be referred to as Best Woman instead of Best Man.

    Our Groomswoman carried a bouquet like the bridesmaids. She's still a girl, no matter what side she stands on. I'd treat her the same as the bridesmaids.

    I was a groomswoman in a friends wedding...they got me a corsage AND a bouquet and it was weird.  My FI is having his sister as best woman and we are planning to have her dress and bouquet just like the bridesmaids.  She'll just be standing on his side.

    My husbands sister was supposed to be the best man and bailed last minute cause she's psycho, but otherwise, she was still in the party, and I had her have the same bouquet as the maid of honor, just changed the ribbon color that held them.

    My fiance will have a groomswoman and I will have a bridesman [my brother] (along with normal-sex groomsmen and bridesmaids). Both his groomswoman and my brother will be wearing the same tuxes as the groomsmen, so they will both get a bouteniere.  It really is about what they are comfortable with. Just ask her what she would prefer and just go with that.
