Wedding bouquets and boutonnieres are a timeless tradition that adds a touch of elegance and romance to your wedding day. They are also a great way to personalize your wedding and make it truly your own.

What are wedding bouquets and boutonnieres?

A wedding bouquet is a bouquet of flowers carried by the bride. It is usually a colorful bouquet that is designed to complement the bride's dress and wedding theme.

A boutonniere is a small bouquet of flowers worn by the groom and the groomsmen. It is typically pinned to the lapel of their jacket.

How to choose the perfect wedding bouquet and boutonniere

  • Your personal preferences: What are your favorite flowers? What colors do you like? What style of bouquet do you prefer?
