Boutonnieres in Singapore

Wedding Boutonniere for Groom and Groomsmen in Singapore

A boutonniere is a small floral accent pinned to the lapel, traditionally worn by the groom, groomsmen, and other key members of the wedding party. Here's how boutonnieres are typically assigned across the group:

Groom: The standout boutonniere for the groom, usually more detailed or distinct to set him apart from the rest of the party
Groomsmen: Coordinated designs that match the groom's style but are slightly simpler in composition
Fathers of the Bride and Groom: Classic, understated designs that align with the wedding colour palette
Close Family and VIP Guests: Optional boutonnieres to signify key roles, usually subtle and cohesive with the overall theme

Both fresh and preserved wedding boutonniere styles are available, including designs featuring calla lilies, hydrangeas, phalaenopsis orchids, and roses across a range of colourways.

Handcrafted Boutonnieres With Style and Detail

Each wedding boutonniere is hand-assembled with attention to structure, proportion, and finish. We work with both preserved and fresh flowers, which matters in Singapore's climate: preserved blooms hold their form and colour reliably throughout a full day of wear, while fresh options offer a natural, just-picked quality for those who prefer it.

Every boutonniere order is prepared to arrive in optimal condition and is built to last from ceremony to reception:

Lightweight and easy to pin without damaging fabric
Sized with proportion in mind so it complements rather than overwhelms the outfit
Suitable for both the groom and coordinated groomsmen styles
Prepared and packaged carefully to arrive in the best possible condition

Frequently Asked Questions About Boutonnieres

Which occasions are suitable for wearing a boutonniere?

Boutonnieres are most commonly worn at weddings, but they're also a fitting choice for ROM and solemnisation ceremonies, graduation dinners, gala events, and formal celebrations where the dress code calls for a suit or blazer. Any occasion where you want to add a considered, polished detail to a formal outfit works well.

What is the difference between a boutonniere and a corsage?

A boutonniere is a small floral arrangement pinned to the lapel of a jacket, traditionally worn by men. A corsage is typically worn by women, either pinned to the dress or worn as a wrist accessory. Both serve a similar decorative purpose and are often coordinated to match each other and the wider wedding floral theme.

Do you provide same-day delivery for boutonnieres?

Is a pin included with a boutonniere?

Yes, a pin is included with every boutonniere order so it's ready to wear on the day.

How do I pin a boutonniere securely?

To pin a boutonniere securely, place it on the left side of the jacket, just above the heart, as this is the traditional position. Use a straight pin to secure the stem through both the fabric and the flower, ensuring the pin holds the boutonniere firmly but isn’t too tight to avoid damaging the fabric or the flower. If extra security is needed, you can use two pins for added stability.

What’s the best way to care for my boutonniere?

To ensure your boutonniere stays fresh, store it in a cool, dry place before the wedding, away from direct sunlight or heat, as this can cause wilting or fading. After the ceremony, carefully remove it from the lapel and place it in a vase with fresh water to extend its freshness for a few more days. A gentle mist of water can also help keep the flowers hydrated if needed.

Can I preserve my boutonniere after the event?

Yes, you can preserve your boutonniere after the event. There are various methods for preservation, such as drying the flowers with silica gel or pressing them. We use the same preservation process to create our preserved flower bouquets, ensuring that your flowers remain vibrant and stunning long after your wedding day.

What flower is used for a groom's boutonniere?

Common flowers used in groom’s boutonnieres include roses, carnations, lilies, and orchids. The choice of flower is often guided by personal preference, the wedding's colour scheme, and the overall style of the groom's attire. Each flower is carefully selected to complement the wedding theme and enhance the groom's look, ensuring a cohesive and elegant appearance.
