boutonniereAccording to the site, Wedding Bouquets, there are all kinds of rules for matching up all of the blooms that your bridal party will be wearing during your procession down the aisle and other celebrations. For instance, it is traditional for the bloom in the groom’s lapel to match one of the blossom types in the bride’s bouquet.  Usually, the boutonnieres for the groomsmen will also match with the bridesmaids’ bouquets. You should also choose flowers that blend with the lapels of the groom and groomsmen’s wedding attire. You will also need to choose flowers for the ushers, ring bearer, fathers and grandfathers. To get by all of this the idea is to keep it as simple as possible. Choose one kind of orchid, lily or rose and just make it an element of every bouquet or corsage that must be worn. One of the simplest colors to choose that should also coordinate with everyone’s outfits is white. White roses, therefore, are probably the way to go if you want to keep everyone happy yet also looking nicely decorated with blossoms.
