Prom Gown Questions

F L O R I S T S-FLOWERS
Flowers for the your Prom date are a very important part of the Prom tradition. Flowers, for him and her, are special way of showing your respect and consideration for your partner. Flowers are special:

B O U T O N N IE RE
Customarily girls buy a boutonniere for their dates. Usually it is a pin-on carnation or rose with baby's breath to be worn traditionally on the right lapel. You may want to order this at the same time your date orders your coursage. Some florists will make a slightly cheaper package deal if you order the two items together. A boutonniere will cost $5-$15.


C O R S A G E :
It is customary for the guy to buy a corsage for his date. It can be a pin-on type, or one she can wear around her wrist. Some even buy a modified nosegay that a girl can carry in her hand. It is a good idea to know what color prom dress your date is wearing so that the corsage you choose doesn't clash. Some couples like to go together and choose the flowers. Again, how much you spend on this item varies greatly and what you want determines the cost. Most people spend $25-$50 on a corsage. But I have seen as much as $150 spent. Be wise in making your choice.
