Today's boutonniere designs are no afterthought to the bride's bouquet or nod to the wedding party color. Bold designs — detailed and intricate or sublimely simple — utilize unexpected materials to bring interest to the gentleman's lapel on his big day.

Some mixed greens and leucadendron are all
that is needed to create a clean and stately design.

Making a bold statement with simple hypericum and dusty miller, this design proves that you don't always need to include traditional flowers to create a beautiful boutonniere. By Reed & Petals Florist, 2630 Brandt School Road, Wexford; 724/940-2200

Seeing Red
The Black Magic roses of this bouquet have a velvety appearance and deep, rich tone. In abundance they take center stage and are accented with safari sunset, dusty miller and pepper berry to add texture to the design. By Reed & Petals Florist, 2630 Brandt School Road, Wexford; 724/940-2200
Right: Pretty Studly
What studs do for a man's tuxedo shirt, Swarovski crystals do for this boutonniere, providing a rich accent to the design of mini calla lily, hypericum and scented geranium. By Flowers in the Attic, 7505 Saltsburg Road, Penn Hills; 412/798-2200
