Who gets the bouts/ corsages?

I think i have an idea about who gets what flowers but not fully.. so the guys are getting bouts with one flower and a little greenery and the ladies (mothers and grandmothers) get corsages with one flower and a little greenery. Or do the ladies get more than one flower? Does it depend on the lady... the mothers get two flowers and the step-mothers and grandmas get one flower?! I'm doing all roses, a combo of white and hot pink. Any help will be appreciated! TIA

    Have you talked with the mothers and such about what they would prefer?  Not everyone likes corsages (whether wrist or pin on).  Some prefer a corsage that they can pin onto their clutch, while others may prefer a small nosegay or a single stem.

    I had both my Mom and MIL carry a small nosegay and the grandmothers carried a single rose with a bow.

    You get to choose who gets what.

    For my wedding, we gave the mothers and grandmothers nosegays of calla lilies. 
    we gave the brothers and sisters boutineres/corsages of rosebuds.  This included the brothers -in - law and sisters - in -law.  We gave the groomsmen and the fathers boutineres of calla lilies.  

    These were the important people in our lives.
