Like every other element of modern celebrations, the boutonniere is ripe for reinvention. Dapper grooms are ditching the traditional rose for succulents, sprigs of herbs and eco-friendly silk blooms. For a Port Royal wedding, event planner Margaret Short gave the fashion an outdoorsy spin. Inspired by the groom’s love of angling and boating, she suggested anchoring the look with fishing lures. Naples-based Beach Rose Floral wrapped lavender and rosemary sprigs around feathers and bait to create trophy-worthy accessories for the whole groom’s party. As brooches make their return in fashion, the personalized boutonniere is a charming rendition.
