Let's Hear It For The Boys!

The bride and her choice of flowers have traditionally been the focus for florist/floral designers and that still holds true today.  After all we women just seem to be more interested in the flowers then our guys do, although some of this may be changing.  The grooms of today are getting more involved in the wedding planning process than ever before.  Go grooms!  So today I thought we’d focus on the boys for a bit! 

You know what I love about today’s boutonnieres?  The possibilities are endless!   And while your classic traditional rose, calla lily, or orchid boutonniere will never go out of style, there are many other styles that can showcase any personality. 

While the boutonniere should incorporate some of the same floral elements as the bride’s bouquet, it should also work with the style of the suit.  It should be just the right size (not to small, and for goosh’s sake, not too big!) and it needs to complement the overall color palette of the wedding. Quite a lot of thought needs to go into this tiny little adornment.

Below are some great examples to show off to your groom  and then ask him if he has any opinions about his boutonniere – you just might be surprised!

Here are some updated classics, after all your classic groom’s red rose boutonniere doesn’t have to be his dad’s Boutonnière.

Enjoy,
