BOUTONNIERES

Don’t forget the boutonnieres! The male flower accessory tradition evolved over time from a symbol for—you guessed it—fertility to a fashion trend. By the later end of the 19th century, American men wore flowers on their lapels as finishing touches to their gentlemanly outfits. These accessories are reserved for special occasions nowadays, so indulge on the big day with a little lapel love that matches the bride’s bouquet.
