Boutonnieres??

Are your ushers wearing boutonnieres? I really hate men with flowers and don't want it LOL. What are you doing?

i'm thinking of pocket squares, matching the girls dresses. Plus, they will be wearing tuxes unlike the guest who will have suits. I dunno really lol

Re: Boutonnieres??

why not try to funk it up? i remember one groom was really into film, and they made the boutennieres out of film strips. don't ask me how, but it was awesome.

My cousin had a beach them at his wedding. The groomsmen wore mini sea stars on their tuxes instead of boutonnieres. It looked really nice and went along well with their theme.

Yes, but mine will be a peacock feather. Something like this..

I have also seen some other nice feather ones (not peacock)

I'll do a single rose or whichever flower you're using. Simple and classy.

Re: Boutonnieres??

We originally weren't going to and just to the pocket squares but then FH of all people said that he thinks we should do bouts. So the GMs are going to have a green rose with yellow billy balls to match the BMs bouquets and FH is going to have a yellow calla to match my bouquet.

The dads will have white cymbidium orchids.

I'm thinking about having the Bout and adding a star wars royal guard lego guy to it, since i'm trying for a star wards wedding. I still need to talk to my florist about it.
I don't think you HAVE to have Bouts, but you should have something to distinguish the guys from the regular guests. Maybe a pin? I would look up 'unquie bouts' on google!
