Are the groom and groomsmen supposed to have the same or different? Or does it even matter?What kinds of flowers did you use for each?tia

From the groom to his guys, they will all have the same flower. We're doing bright yellow mini callas with fiddlefern/monkey tail.

Our groomsmen did not have bouts; they just had pocket squares, However, DH wore a mini purple calla. Our dads wore white orchids. I think it's a matter of personal preference; in our case DH really wanted to stand out (hence the GMs not having bouts at all), and we decided to have our dads' flowers match our moms' corsages.

we had different bouts for DH, the GM, and the dads. it's a matter of personal preference but i think florists like to talk you into making the groom stand out from everyone else. at first i didn't want them wearing any flowers b/c i think they look effeminate but i had a hard time finding an alternative that didn't look too plain. so we ended up with freesia (smelled great but is easily damaged!), fiddleheads (fern curls), and hypericum berries with a little greenery (leaves).
