Man Flower = Boutonniere

Today let's focus on the groom...we are going to discuss the boutonniere a.k.a. the bout. The infamous bout is a small floral arrangement for jacket lapels and are worn by the men in the wedding - groom, groomsmen, ushers, ring bearer, family members and the officiant. The style usually centers around the bouquets and floral theme and is secured in place on the left side of the jacket by a pin or two.

I always suggest ordering an extra bout for the groom because after all the hugging once you are husband and wife, a smashed bout can be replaced by a vibrant new one.

Until next time...WEDologize!
