Boutonnieres
Man Flowers
Soooo, not many blogs seem to be dedicated to boutonnieres a.k.a the man flowers. Man don't give a monkeys bottom about this but I'm sure so many brides like me will lose/lost countless hours looking for the right boutonnieres.

My flowers are calla so D will also have a Calla boutonniere.

I didn't think there would be so many choices on the calla boutonnieres.

The girls will have roses so the groomsman will have a rose boutonniere.

I hate baby's breath and a lot of the rose boutonnieres have baby's breath on them. Florist has been specifically instructed that I don't want to see baby's breath in any of the arrangements.

Marta,
This doesn't have anything to do with Boutonnières, but I thought this might interest you. I think its super cute, and it goes so well with the "Tiffany" theme. Its a bell tucked inside a little blue suede pouch just like the pouch that jewelery from Tiffany's comes in.  The caption says that the guests rang the bells as the bride and groom walked back down the aisle, but i thought it might also be cute as a way for the guests to get the couple to kiss at the reception, instead of clanking their glasses with a fork. Also, these are jingle bells, I thought it might be cuter with a bell that resembled a "wedding bell."

If that link doesn't work you can go to Marthstewart.com click on weddings then on the left side there is a panel that says "Most popular" and then Click "Breakfast at Tiffany's," and then you can look through some Tiffany inspired pictures.

You may have already seen this....if so, sorry.

Tre Chic! and I agree it would be cuter with a "wedding" bell and not a jingle type bell.

I wonder where I could get those suade pouches however.

If you know how to sew, i think it would be really easy. Even if you don't sew, it wouldn't be hard to figure out --however, if you don't sew, the hard part would be finding a sewing machine I guess.
