I'm 26, live in Toronto and am eagerly awaiting my proposal. We've picked out the band and the stone together, it's been made and in my house - just haven't actually gotten it yet!!

So here's my question.
I thought it'd be a nice idea when we announce our engagement to our parents, to duplicate our Mother's wedding bouquets as gifts for them (a little smaller though).
Tough thing is (as harsh as it is) - I'm getting feed back that either our Mothers' might not remember what their bouquets looked like (so I thought of adding a copy of their wedding photo) but some have pointed out our Mothers' don't quite look the way they did 30 years ago and it might bother them more than do good.
Also, not sure about whether to make it an actual 'bouquet' or just a floral arrangement in a nice vase.


Vote Please!
As a mother of the bride and/or groom, I would be thrilled to have those tokens of my past. What wonderful memories.
