Buttonholes (for
the men in the bridal party)
We have included
a number of different varieties of flowers suitable for men's buttonholes;
they include roses, calla lilies, gerberas, carnations, lisianthus,
Singapore Orchids and Phalaenopsis Orchids (Moth orchid), etc. It is also
possible to have a buttonhole of suitable greenery if that compliments the
bride's and brides maids' posies.
As it's the groom's special day we often make his buttonhole a little larger
than the others, e.g. add a second smaller flower to the buttonhole or we can
pick another colour so he will stand out from the rest of the groom's party.
For small pageboys we use the smallest flower to suit his age/size and will
provide an appropriate safety pin instead of the normal pearl headed pin,
(for safety reasons).
Buttonholes or boutonnieres for ladies are shown on our Corsage page.
