The boutonniere finishes off the well-dressed groom's.
The Wedding And The Boutonniere
For weddings, white is probably the number one color. As we mentioned before, classic boutonnieres would be lilies of the valley, a carnation or one to two little spray roses. All of these should last and look fresh throughout the day. Personally, You should use the same kind of flower as the bride’s bouquet. As with all boutonnieres, try to avoid heavy flowers and make sure to let your planner know what you want, including the amount of greenery.
Traditionally, the groom wears a different boutonniere than the rest of the wedding party. So, if the groom wears white spray roses, then the wedding party could wear red spray roses. Just in case something happens with a boutonniere, it pays to have a backup. Considering the low cost of $10 to $18, this is a wise investment because a groom without a boutonniere simply does not look right – even today! In case you want to learn more about the boutonniere, ask your planner and book an appointment.
