🌸 How to Wear a Corsage on Prom Night – A Prom Guide from Melanie’s Florist Tadcaster

Prom night is one of the most unforgettable events of the year—a chance to dress up, take photos, and celebrate in style. And one timeless tradition that always completes the look? A beautiful corsage.

At Melanie’s Florist Tadcaster, we handcraft stunning prom corsages that are elegant, unique, and designed to match any outfit. Whether you're getting ready for your own prom or helping your teen prepare, here’s your guide to giving and wearing a corsage with confidence.

💐 What Is a Corsage?

A corsage is a small floral arrangement worn at formal events, traditionally by women. It can be made with a single rose, spray carnations, orchids, or other seasonal flowers, decorated with ribbon, jewels, or pearls to match the dress and personal style.

Corsages are most commonly worn on the wrist, though some are designed to be pinned onto a dress or even carried in hand.

🎁 When and How to Present a Corsage

The best time to give your date her corsage is right when you first meet for the evening—often before heading out or taking photos.

Present the box and kindly ask, “Would you like me to help you put it on?” It’s a small but thoughtful gesture that adds charm to the moment.

✨ Wrist Corsages – Tadcaster’s Favourite

Wrist corsages are the most popular choice for prom and a beautiful way to complement your outfit.

Tips:

Traditionally worn on the left wrist, but it’s always best to ask your date what’s most comfortable.
Gently slide the band or keepsake bracelet over her hand and adjust the flowers to sit neatly and securely on the top of the wrist.

📌 Pin-On Corsages – A Classic Option

Pin-on corsages are an elegant alternative, perfect for strapless or formal dresses.

How to pin a corsage:

Hold the corsage against the dress, just below the collarbone.
Lift a small section of fabric away from the skin.
Insert the pin through the back of the fabric and into the thickest part of the stem.
Carefully fasten it in place, ensuring it sits straight and secure.
