BUTTONHOLES
A single, meticulously crafted boutonniere rests on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, its subtle weave catching the light and providing a calm, neutral backdrop for the flowers to glow. In the centre, two lisianthus blossoms unfurl in full detail, their petals a pure, creamy white softened by delicate ruffles, with edges brushed in a deep violet-purple that creates a graceful halo of colour around each bloom. Small, cloud-like tufts of white filler flowers sit between them, lending a gentle, romantic texture reminiscent of baby's breath caught in a spring breeze over the River Lea. Rising just behind the focal blooms is a narrow stem of muscari, its tiny, densely packed, bell-shaped flowers forming a column of intense indigo-purple, adding height and a touch of whimsical woodland charm, as though gathered from a riverside garden plot not far from Bow Road. Surrounding these elements, feathery, fine-textured greenery arches and curls, its fresh green tones suggesting cool foliage brushed with the scent of damp soil and new growth. Two pale green buds, still tightly closed, extend from the side of the arrangement, symbolising quiet expectation and the moments just before a special day begins. The stems are bound neatly with a band of white satin ribbon, smooth and slightly lustrous, carefully wrapped and tied so that the piece sits snugly against a lapel. The composition feels poised and thoughtful, ideal for a groom stepping out of a townhouse near Roman Road Market or a prom guest meeting friends under the trees in nearby Mile End Park, carrying with them a subtle, personal touch of floral elegance.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined, handcrafted boutonniere rests on a pale beige, finely woven linen surface, its subtle texture providing a calm, neutral backdrop that lets the flowers themselves tell the story. At the centre is a rounded cluster of soft pink and lilac-tinged blooms, reminiscent of miniature stocks or dainty spray roses, each ruffled petal folding inward to create a sense of depth and movement. Tiny white baby's breath is threaded throughout this pastel heart, the minute blossoms forming a delicate veil that softens the outlines and adds a sense of airiness, like a light mist over a spring garden in Bow's quiet side streets. A few slender spikes of gentle lavender-purple flowers add nuance and contrast, giving the eye a point of interest without breaking the arrangement's overall tenderness. Extending to one side, several elongated buds in creamy white fading to pale green sit poised to open, their smooth, tapered forms suggesting freesia or similar elegant buds, and conveying the feeling of a moment caught just before full bloom. Beneath the flowers, broad, glossy green leaves cradle the design, their rich colour grounding the pastels, while fine, grassy fronds and feathery foliage curve outward, hinting at a more natural, garden-inspired style. The stems are neatly caught together and wrapped in a lustrous fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a graceful, symmetrical bow whose loops and short tails rest quietly against the linen. This single, polished floral accent feels ideal for a groom or guest walking through Victoria Park or arriving at a Bow registry office, capturing that blend of understated romance and carefully considered detail that defines many local celebrations.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere lies gracefully across a pale beige linen-style fabric, the subtle crosshatch of the weave giving a gentle backdrop that recalls a carefully pressed suit laid out before a wedding in Bow. The rose, not yet fully unfurled, reveals layers of soft, velvety petals that deepen from a light, creamy peach at the outer edges to a richer apricot and warm orange glow at the core, hinting at sweetness and quiet anticipation. Just above and beside the bloom, a scattering of white baby's breath flowers, each blossom no bigger than a pinhead, forms a delicate halo that contrasts with the rose's more substantial shape. Slender blades of bright green foliage and a couple of broader, darker green leaves curve around the base, adding movement and a natural frame to the composition. The stems are gathered into a compact bundle and wrapped tightly with a smooth peach satin ribbon, its gentle sheen catching the light, finishing in a tidy knot that suggests practiced, professional hands. Soft, even lighting washes over the scene, highlighting the intricate petal texture, the airy gypsophila, and the woven fabric beneath, without harsh shadow or glare. The overall mood is one of understated sophistication, ideal for a groom's lapel at a registry office ceremony near Roman Road or a prom photo taken on a Bow side street, capturing the tender excitement of new chapters. Crafted with care typical of local florists, this boutonniere evokes the fragrance of fresh roses, the rustle of formalwear, and the intimate calm before guests arrive.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
Displayed carefully on a pale beige linen-like cloth, this elegant boutonniere combines classic wedding flowers with a contemporary touch, the soft background fabric's visible weave giving the whole image an inviting, tactile warmth. At the centre lies a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, its broad, curved petals opening gracefully, as if cupping the light. The orchid's throat shows a nuanced blend of creamy yellow and gentle reddish-orange speckles, drawing the eye into the intricate heart of the bloom. Surrounding it, airy stems of white baby's breath scatter like tiny stars, adding a misty, romantic texture that softens the composition. To one side, two perfectly round, lime-green chrysanthemum buds, with their fine, almost quill-like petals, introduce a vivid, fresh green accent that feels modern and playful, much like the creative weddings often seen around Bow and along the canals near Mile End. A broad, glossy dark green leaf sits beneath the orchid, giving structure and depth, while a smaller leaf beside the stem reinforces the natural, garden-picked feel. The stems are neatly bound with a bold red satin ribbon, the rich colour wrapped snugly from top to bottom, finishing in a compact, decorative knot that suggests both care and celebration. The ribbon's sheen gently catches the light, offering a striking contrast against the neutral textile and the cool white petals. This floral pin, imagined on the lapel of a groom or groomsman stepping out of a townhouse near Bow Road for a city ceremony, conveys quiet confidence, expert craftsmanship, and the understated joy of a special day shared with family and friends.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An artfully composed boutonniere lies centered on a pale oatmeal-coloured, woven fabric, the texture of the cloth subtly visible beneath the flowers like the table covers in a Bow café near Mile End Park. The eye is immediately drawn to a single white Phalaenopsis orchid, its petals wide and serene, unfolding in a soft, symmetrical curve. At its centre, gentle tones of cream, yellow, and soft orange create depth, as if the flower glows from within. Surrounding the orchid, baby's breath forms a fine mist of tiny white florets, their fragile, star-like shapes lending a dreamy softness and a feeling of quiet romance. Tucked close to the base, a tidy cluster of glossy red berries adds a joyful burst of colour, reminiscent of winter hedgerows along the streets leading from Bow Road station. A few lighter green berry-like buds punctuate the design with a fresh, just-picked look. Various green leaves, some broad and pointed, others slimmer and more elongated, are woven through the piece, their clean lines and differing shades of green providing structure and contrast. The stems are bound together with a rich red satin ribbon, wrapped firmly and finished with a small, composed knot, leaving short ribbon tails that rest gently against the fabric background. Soft natural light skims the arrangement, highlighting the satiny surface of the orchid, the tiny matte blossoms of the baby's breath, and the polished sheen on each berry. This refined floral accessory feels ideal for a wedding, prom, or formal event in Bow, offering a subtle yet memorable touch of floral elegance that sits effortlessly on a suit jacket or dress.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A delicately styled blush pink rose boutonniere is displayed against a pale beige, natural linen background, the subtle weave of the fabric lending an organic, relaxed luxury reminiscent of small independent venues tucked around Bow Road and Roman Road. Viewed from slightly above, the rose is caught at that perfect stage between bud and full bloom, its velvety petals unfolding in soft spirals. At the heart, the colour is a gentle pastel pink, gradually intensifying to a more vibrant, romantic pink at the edges where the petals curl back, hinting at fragrance and freshness. Around the rose's base, clusters of tiny, cloud-like baby's breath in creamy white create a delicate, frothy border, softening the transition between flower and foliage. Wispy blades of fine emerald green foliage extend lightly from behind the bloom, adding movement and a sense of airiness, while a single broader dark green leaf is skillfully folded and wrapped to form a structured cradle that keeps the design compact and tidy for wearing on a lapel. The stems are carefully wrapped in a lustrous satin ribbon that shifts from lavender-pink to richer magenta-purple tones, tied into a smooth, secure knot that lies flat against the fabric. The light in the scene is gentle and diffused, revealing every petal contour and the tiny buds of the baby's breath without glare, and casting the softest of shadows that give the composition depth. This image evokes the feeling of a quietly romantic wedding morning or a special prom night in Bow, showing a refined, modern boutonniere that balances classic materials with contemporary simplicity.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Displayed against a neutral, woven beige fabric that looks like fine linen, this refined boutonniere exudes the quiet excitement of a Bow wedding morning. The eye is drawn first to a single fuchsia-pink rose, its petals rich and velvety, spiralling inwards to a tightly held centre that hints at the rose just reaching its prime. Around it, delicate sprays of white baby's breath form a soft halo, their tiny blossoms scattered like stars and adding a gentle, romantic haze that contrasts beautifully with the bold colour of the rose. Between these white clusters, a few glossy red hypericum berries peek through, rounded and jewel-like, bringing a playful touch of colour that feels especially festive for winter ceremonies or evening receptions near Roman Road and Mile End Park. Surrounding everything, textured greenery provides structure and movement: slender, feathery fronds extend gracefully from one side, while broader, darker green leaves are artfully curved around the base, giving the design an architectural, tailored feel. The stems are wrapped snugly in a rich red satin ribbon, smooth and slightly lustrous, tied in a small bow that sits comfortably against the fabric, ready to pin on a lapel. The soft, natural lighting in the image enhances the subtle shadows, emphasising the craftsmanship and care of a skilled local florist. This small floral piece feels perfectly suited to a groom, best man, or prom guest dressing up for a special occasion in and around Bow, capturing both elegance and heartfelt joy in a single, wearable arrangement.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A handcrafted boutonniere rests diagonally across a pale beige, lightly textured backdrop, the fabric recalling natural linen often used in boutique displays around Bow. At the centre of this delicate piece is a single rosebud in a vibrant fuchsia hue, its petals tightly wrapped and rich with colour, shifting subtly from deep pink to a near-crimson at the edges. Surrounding this focal bloom are soft tufts of baby's breath, each tiny white flower floating like fine lace, adding an airy softness that contrasts beautifully with the rose's velvety fullness. Behind and around the blossoms, slender sprays of bright green, fern-like foliage arc outward in gentle curves, while a few deeper green leaves provide a solid, grounding base. The stems of the flowers and greenery are brought together at the bottom and bound with a narrow band of glossy red satin ribbon, wrapped with precision so that no loose ends show, suggesting the steady hands of an experienced local florist. The ribbon glows under the clear, bright lighting, picking up subtle highlights and echoing the bold tone of the rose. The arrangement feels intimate and romantic, ideal for a groom or guest arriving at a registry office in Bow or a riverside celebration near the Limehouse Cut, the boutonniere ready to be pinned to a jacket lapel. The light falls evenly across the scene, emphasizing freshness, careful balance, and the quiet elegance of a traditional wedding accessory prepared just in time for a heartfelt occasion.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Capturing the charm and character of East London's Bow neighbourhood, this delicately assembled boutonniere rests upon a softly textured linen reminiscent of historical local artisanship. The central rose, pale blush and perfectly furled, unfurls with each petal a gradient from deep, warm pink at its heart to gentle pastel at the tips-a quiet echo of the early bloom found in gardens by Bow Church. Alongside the rose, a lighter bloom in blush-peach, touched with buttery yellow and expressive dark markings, adds a subtle layer of playful detail, much like unexpectedly colourful corners of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park. Airy clouds of baby's breath and clusters of lively green mini-mums punctuate the arrangement, contributing contrast and tactile dimension. The foliage forms a poised, verdant base: sleek bladed grasses and fanned fern-like sprigs arch upwards, while broad, contoured leaves provide structure, much as green spaces line the River Lea. All stems are neatly bound with a vibrant, fuchsia pink satin ribbon tied into a precise bow whose sheen is gently uplifted by natural daylight. The result is a boutonniere equally apt for grooms, groomsmen, or prom-goers, carrying a sense of celebration and hope, and lovingly assembled for same-day delivery throughout Bow's bustling, creative community.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
A small yet exquisitely detailed floral boutonniere lies on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, the subtle texture of the cloth providing a soft, neutral backdrop that lets every petal and leaf stand out clearly. At the centre, a white alstroemeria unfurls, its petals gently curved and faintly ruffled at the edges, with fine reddish-brown streaks radiating from the throat like delicate ink lines, giving the bloom a sense of depth and character. To its left, a vivid green conical spike of closely packed buds, recalling Ornithogalum, brings a sculptural element that contrasts beautifully with the softness of the main flower. Threaded between them, sprigs of white baby's breath form tiny clouds of blossoms, their minute flowers creating a misty, romantic veil. The greenery beneath and around the flowers is thoughtfully layered: broad, dark green leaves with pointed tips anchor the arrangement, while slender, flexible blades of grass-like foliage arc and twist lightly, adding movement, as though catching a hint of breeze drifting over the canals of Bow. At the right edge, a bright pink satin ribbon gathers the stems, tied into a neat, carefully formed bow that shines subtly in the even, diffused light, adding a cheerful, celebratory accent to the elegant white and green palette. The boutonniere feels fresh, modern, and refined, ideal for a groom, best man, or prom guest stepping out from a townhouse near Roman Road or heading to a registry office in East London. It captures the quiet anticipation of a special day, with each botanical detail composed to sit comfortably and gracefully on a lapel.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A refined floral boutonnière lies diagonally across a softly textured, oatmeal-coloured fabric that looks like fine linen, its natural fibres catching the light in gentle, irregular lines. At the centre of the composition is a pristine white lisianthus, fully open, its ruffled petals cupping inward in delicate layers, giving the flower the softness of whipped cream. Two closed lisianthus buds in a pale green-cream tone nestle just to the left and below, their smooth, tapered forms echoing the main bloom while hinting at blossoms still to come. Interwoven among them are airy tufts of white baby's breath, each tiny floret like a speck of light, adding a halo of texture around the central flower and evoking the romantic feel of Bow's canal-side weddings and intimate celebrations tucked away off Roman Road. Slim, grass-like fronds of dark green foliage splay out towards the lower left, their linear shapes lending a sense of movement, as if caught by a soft breeze wandering through Mile End Park. Behind the central bloom, a single broader leaf in deeper green anchors the cluster and gives visual depth. At the base, the florist has bound the stems tightly with a bold fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a small, cheerful bow whose silky sheen stands out strikingly against the muted fabric and gentle floral tones. The overall mood is one of graceful simplicity and modern romance, a lapel flower that would feel at home on a groom's jacket during a Bow town hall ceremony or a stylish London warehouse reception.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A refined floral boutonniere rests lengthways on a pale beige, linen-textured cloth, the subtle weave of the fabric forming a calm, neutral backdrop that lets the flowers become the quiet focus of the scene. At its heart, a single white Phalaenopsis orchid opens wide, each velvety petal gently curved, pure in colour and edged with the softest shadows. The orchid's centre glows with a touch of warm yellow and a whisper of pale pink, like a delicate watercolor wash hidden within its throat, adding depth and an almost romantic intrigue. Around the base of this central bloom, clusters of tiny white baby's breath gather in soft, cloud-like sprays, their minuscule blossoms creating a misty, ethereal frame that feels both light and full. A few slender, fresh green leaves extend from behind the flower, introducing a vibrant contrast that reinforces the impression of freshly cut stems, just prepared by an experienced florist in Bow. To one side, a short offshoot bears several tightly closed, lime-green orchid buds, their smooth, rounded forms suggesting the quiet anticipation of blooms yet to unfurl. The stems are bound cleanly with a bright fuchsia pink satin ribbon, the narrow bow tied neatly so that its small loops and short tails sit snugly beneath the orchid, catching the light with a gentle sheen. The overall lighting is soft and even, reminiscent of natural daylight streaming through a studio window near Roman Road, enhancing every texture-from the satin ribbon and fine gypsophila to the delicate petals and coarse fabric. This boutonniere feels ideal for a wedding in an East London registry office, a prom evening gathering near Mile End, or any formal event where subtle elegance and thoughtful floral design are appreciated.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A finely crafted white orchid boutonniere rests on a pale, oatmeal-toned fabric, its woven texture echoing the relaxed elegance of Bow's canal-side studios and warehouse venues. At the centre, a flawless Phalaenopsis orchid bloom unfolds with serene precision, each petal a smooth, luminous white that gently curves outward, framing a softly shadowed throat touched with a whisper of pale yellow and cream. Surrounding this central flower, an intricate cloud of white baby's breath gives the design a delicate, almost ethereal aura, as if a light mist has settled around the orchid. The gypsophila's tiny blooms sit on slender, branching stems, their slightly irregular spacing adding a natural rhythm that feels both airy and intentional. Slender strands of fresh green foliage weave in and out of the composition, their fine, feathery texture offering a subtle contrast to the orchid's velvety surface and the baby's breath's tiny, rounded petals. These greens bring a breath of garden freshness, reminiscent of early morning walks through nearby Mile End Park when the leaves still hold a trace of dew. All the stems are expertly bound together with a band of crisp white satin ribbon, wrapped smoothly and finished with a neat, modest bow that signals the careful craftsmanship of a professional wedding florist. The soft, even light in the photograph highlights the interplay of textures-the satin's gentle sheen, the fabric's natural weave, and the bloom's satin-like petals-without casting harsh shadows. This understated yet luxurious boutonniere feels ideal for a modern Bow wedding or civil ceremony, pinned to a tailored lapel as a quiet symbol of love, composure, and enduring commitment shared among family and friends gathered close to home.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined white rose boutonniere rests at a gentle diagonal on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, the woven texture subtly visible beneath the flowers like a carefully laid tablecloth in a Bow townhouse near Victoria Park. At the centre, a single ivory-white rosebud forms the focal point, its petals smooth and tightly coiled with the promise of a full bloom to come. The bloom appears freshly cut, its edges soft and unblemished, catching a quiet, natural light that traces each gentle curve. Surrounding the rose are clusters of white baby's breath, each tiny floret creating a misty halo that softens the overall silhouette, evoking a sense of tenderness and romance well suited to a wedding day. Fine, tapered green leaves and a few feathery, fern-like stems frame the composition, adding layered shades of green that set off the purity of the rose and amplify the feeling of freshness, like a cool morning along the canals of Bow. The stems are carefully gathered and wrapped in a smooth white satin ribbon, the fabric pulled snug and even, finishing in a petite, neatly formed bow just beneath the flower head. The satin has a gentle sheen that echoes the satin lapel of a suit jacket, making it clear that this piece is designed for a groom, best man, or usher at a formal event. The lighting remains softly diffused, emphasising texture rather than harsh shadows, and the whole image conveys a sense of quiet anticipation, capturing the intimate details that often define a wedding or registry ceremony in and around Bow. Crafted with the kind of care local florists bring to small, meaningful occasions, this boutonniere speaks to love, commitment, and timeless style.
