Re: Did you get godparents a corsage/bout.?

In italian families it's a tradition but I've been Godmother twice and have never gotten it. I don't see it as a big deal.

My mom was like "oh but you have to"...no I don't. DH's family doesn't do it and it's his sister and husband who are the Godparents so being that it's not a tradition in their family, I don't see them getting offended.

Italians are crazy with corsages! I should know, I grew up in a very Italian family. We're doing a corsage and bout for the Godparents this weekend.

I'm sure it's going to be great! Everything will come together.

Just found out that I'm doing a reading at this wedding, so now I'm nervous! Chat Icon

They are totally insane! Sometimes you gotta put your foot down. I said no and that's it. If they were both from our side of the family then I would have to give in. But being that they are from DH's side of the family and it's not a tradition for them then why do it?

Sometimes these Italian traditions are ridicuous!

We didn't. At Sarah's I think 2 of the 7 families did. At Andy's last weekend none of the 6 did.

Re: Did you get godparents a corsage/bout.?

I got them for the godparents - but since I sat in the back seat of the car on the way to the church and they were in the front seat (and DH had no idea what they were for Chat Icon Chat Icon ) - I forgot they were there and forgot to give it to them.

I don't think it is necessary
