We are rocking a DIY roundup week here at weddingomania.com, and today’s roundup is dedicated to floral boutonnieres. Many of us are able to arrange flowers for centerpieces and bouquets, which isn’t difficult but as for boutonnieres – I think everyone can make that! They are much smaller, don’t’ require any special arrangements and skills to make. Let’s start!
Use your favorite ribbon and flowers to make the boutonnieres for your wedding day. You’ll be able to customize them how you want, plus you’ll save money. Use the blooms that you’ve chosen for your wedding bouquets or centerpieces and some ribbon to make the boutonniere stand out.

This floral boutonniere also includes some ribbon and blooms but here you’ll also see some berries and foliage for a textural touch. Boutonnieres can be made a day ahead of your event, and stored in a cooler with a temperature between 40° to 42° F. Use sturdy blooms to ensure that your boutonniere will last through all of the hugs, kisses and photos of your special day.

These are the cutest rustic floral boutonnieres I’ve ever seen: they are made of baby’s breath wrapped with twine, what can be easier? Baby’s breath is great as it’s a fit for many weddings, not only rustic ones, and to make the boutonniere less rustic, just swap the twine for something else.
