Prom & Sweet Sixteen Flowers

 

Decorating with Urns

 

It is customary to wear a corsage or boutonniere when attending the prom, ladies wear a corsage and a headpiece, gentlemen wear a boutonniere.

This tradition comes from a long, long time ago, when flowers were worn to make one smell heavenly while dancing with a partner. Frequent showers, expensive perfumes, and air conditioning were not available at that time.

Ideally, it is nice to match the flowers to the prom attire so the colors do not clash. If the colors do not match, you must wear them if they were given to you. In such a circumstance, the lady may choose to wear the corsage on her wrist by attaching it to a ribbon or pinned to her evening bag.

 

Corsages and boutonnieres are worn on the left shoulder or lapel with the stem pointed downward. If the lady is wearing a dress with spaghetti straps or no straps, the corsage may be placed on the left side of the top of the bodice, on the left side of her waist, on her left wrist, or pinned to her evening bag.

Some advise:

 

It is important to remember that prom season is also peak wedding season, therefore, popular flowers such as sweetheart roses, white roses and certain orchids are in high demand. Order at least two weeks in advance so we have time to order the necessary quantities to ensure that you get exactly what you want.

 

We know how important prom flowers are to our young customers and we will be happy to work with you to make a special corsage. Florists are experts at customization. Show us the picture of your dress or a swatch of the fabric and we will select an appropriate and matching flowers and ribbon.

 

Most popular styles are wrist corsages and small hand-held nosegays. Popular flowers are sweetheart roses, standard roses, dendrobium orchids, alstroemeria lilies and other small flowers such as cornflowers and freesia. Flowers for your hair or neck or corsages pinned to an evening bag are also great choices. Talk to us about your options and different styles.

 

If you have your heart set on a certain corsage style or type of flower, then there is nothing wrong with letting your date know what you would like. You might suggest going to the florist shop together so you can order his boutonniere to match your corsage. You could also show him a few photos of flowers and ask what he would like for his boutonniere. Be sure you also have a photo of what you want.

 

Tell us what is your budget and we will suggest a few ideas. An inexpensive flower used in a lovely corsage style can be just as beautiful as a more expensive bloom.

 

You can dry a prom corsage. This depends on the flower as there are a number of drying methods. Some establishments can freeze-dry your corsage, but this can be an expensive process. Simple methods include silica pellets and powders or gel. Ask us for recommendations.
