prom.., and corsages Options

[oOKittyKatOo]

just wondering.. for prom.. the guy gets the girl a corsage.. is the girl suppose to get the guy a flower.. or does the get get both the corsage (for date) and the flower (for himself)..?

i thought the guy was suppose to get both.. so the flowers can match and stuff.. but recently.. some people told me otherwise... just wondering what the traditional way is...


thanks

The guy gives you the corsage and you give him the bouteniere. I don't know how to spell it correctly but that's how it's done in California

this is how people usually do it when they put it on before prom, but what about before?
Do you go with your date to buy the corsage and boutonniere? If that happens would u give your date one after the purchase so she could hold it and put the boutonniere on you during prom day?

Wouldn't the flowers turn bad after a while if you buy them a couple of weeks before prom day?
When do you usually buy them?
Are they usually heavy for the girl because i heard it was.

with me, i didn't want my date to see my dress until the actual prom day, so he got to see just a little bit of the fabric to make a decision about the corsage. we bought ours separately, picked them up on prom day, and kept them in our refrigerators until we met up later.

uou usually place the order a couple weeks before prom day, then pick them up on the actual day and store them in the fridge. the flowers usually don't dry up until after-prom or later (mine actually lasted for a while longer).

unless the flower is super fancy, it is really not that heavy. just a little weight on the wrist, but still comfortable :)
