BUTTONHOLES
A refined floral boutonniere lies carefully arranged on a pale beige, linen-like cloth, its subtle weave and gentle folds creating a calm, neutral stage for the flowers to stand out. At the centre are two lisianthus blooms, their crisp white petals edged with a rich, saturated purple that ripples along each ruffled curve, giving the impression of hand-painted brushstrokes. Nestled closely around them are tiny white filler flowers, airy and delicate, softening the transition between the bold lisianthus and the fine greenery behind. Rising just to one side, a narrow spike of muscari or grape hyacinth brings a deeper note of cool blue-purple, its tiny bell-shaped florets packed together to form a distinctive column that adds vertical interest and subtle drama. Feathery fronds of fern-like foliage spread lightly around the base and edges, their fresh green tones evoking spring gardens and quiet squares tucked off the streets of EC2. Two pale green, tightly closed buds sit near the base, suggesting new life and the promise of blossoms still to open, a fitting symbol for a wedding day or a prom evening in the City of London. All of the stems are drawn together into a neat bundle and smoothly wrapped with a white satin ribbon, its sheen catching the light in a narrow band, then tied off with a careful little bow that signals the work of an experienced florist. The overall mood is serene, elegant, and understated, like a thoughtfully chosen accessory awaiting its moment on a lapel for a ceremony in a nearby city venue or riverside restaurant.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A softly lit image showcases a refined boutonniere or petite corsage resting on a neutral, finely woven linen fabric, the beige tones reminiscent of a quiet studio just off Moorgate where arrangements are carefully crafted by hand. At the heart of this piece sits a small cluster of multi-petalled, blush-pink blossoms, their petals slightly ruffled and layered like miniature garden stocks, creating a sense of depth and gentle movement. The pink blooms are dusted with delicate specks of colour variation, fading from a more concentrated centre to paler, almost translucent edges, giving the arrangement a romantic, dawn-like quality. Tucked between them are numerous tiny florets of white baby's breath, each stem branching into delicate, airy clusters that soften the pink and introduce an almost lacy texture, echoing vintage lace cuffs or a classic bridal veil. Small accents of lavender or deep purple flowers pierce the pastel palette here and there, drawing the eye with their richer tone and providing elegant contrast that would look striking on a dark suit or tailored dress for a City of London ceremony. On one side of the cluster, slender buds in creamy white to pale green are carefully positioned so they extend gracefully outward, their closed forms suggesting delicate freesias just waiting to perfume the air. A bed of broad, glossy green leaves creates a structured base, while fine, wispy sprigs of fern-like foliage emerge at the edges, adding a slightly wild, garden-grown feel despite the boutonniere's polished finish. The stems are neatly bound in a vivid fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a perfect bow whose gleaming loops and gently curling tails introduce a joyful burst of colour. This carefully composed accessory, ideal for weddings, graduations, or black-tie events across EC2 and nearby Shoreditch, radiates quiet celebration and thoughtful design.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
An elegant peach rose boutonniere rests horizontally on a softly textured, oat-toned linen fabric, the fine, even weave offering a calm, natural canvas that makes each floral detail stand out. At the centre lies a single rose, not yet fully open, its petals unfolding in a gentle spiral from a deeper, almost salmon-peach core to a creamy, pastel blush at the outer edges. The bloom appears velvety and fresh, as though it has just been conditioned in a cool EC2 flower studio minutes from Old Street. Nestled along the upper right side of the rose is a small, airy cluster of white baby's breath, the gypsophila forming a cloud of tiny stars that contrast beautifully with the smoother, fuller rose petals. Wisps of slender green foliage peek from behind the flowers, adding a sense of movement, while two broader, deep green leaves curve protectively around the base, giving the buttonhole a neat, structured finish. The stems are tightly gathered and wrapped with a coordinating peach satin ribbon, the wrapping smooth and intentional, ending in a tidy knot that subtly reflects the rose's warm tones. Gentle, diffused lighting washes over the entire arrangement, catching the soft sheen of the ribbon and the fine grain of the fabric in the background, yet never overpowering the floral design. The mood is one of poised, quiet celebration, ideal for a groom, usher, or prom guest looking for something refined and romantic. This boutonniere feels perfectly at home at a city wedding reception near Shoreditch or an intimate civil ceremony close to the Barbican, its colours echoing the warmth of an early evening sky over EC2.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
Set against a softly woven, light beige linen backdrop, this refined boutonniere feels like a quiet moment before the ceremony on a side street off Old Broad Street in EC2. The composition is built around a single white Phalaenopsis orchid, its large petals smooth and gently curved, opening like a calm breath. In the centre, creamy yellow tones melt into delicate reddish-orange speckling, giving the flower a sophisticated, almost porcelain quality that stands out beautifully in the soft, diffused light. Clustered closely around the orchid, white baby's breath creates an ethereal mist of tiny blooms, each floret contributing to a cloud-like frame that whispers of romance rather than shouting for attention. To the left, two vibrant lime-green chrysanthemum pom-poms add a crisp shot of colour and an intricate, spiky texture, their playful roundness balancing the orchid's graceful lines. A rich, dark green leaf fans gently at the base, anchoring the design, while another more compact leaf tucks in discreetly near the stem to deepen the sense of lushness. The stems are wrapped with meticulous care in a bold crimson satin ribbon, its smooth sheen and tight coil suggesting expert florist hands, possibly from a studio like EC2 Flowers that knows how to blend classic and contemporary tastes for City weddings and formal events. The red ribbon ends in a neat knot or small bow, echoing the joyful, celebratory tone of a wedding near Spitalfields or Shoreditch. Overall, the boutonniere feels fresh, formal, and intimate-a small, living detail ready to be pinned to a lapel and carried through speeches, photographs, and late-night dancing in the heart of London.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An artfully styled image shows a single floral boutonniere resting on a softly textured, oatmeal-coloured fabric backdrop, the kind of neutral linen you might find in a modern City of London venue. Centered in the composition is a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, its wide, velvety petals opening like a calm smile. The throat of the bloom carries a subtle infusion of creamy yellow and muted orange, creating a warm focal point that gently draws the eye inward. Around the orchid, clouds of white baby's breath spill outward, their tiny, star-like blossoms forming a light, feathery frame that contrasts with the orchid's smooth surfaces. Nestled against these delicate blooms are clusters of shiny red berries, round and plump, paired with a few soft green berry buds that hint at early growth and freshness. A mix of lush green foliage - some leaves broad and pointed, others slim and tapering - is woven through the design, adding layers of rich, natural colour and a sense of fullness. The stems are wrapped tightly in a bright red satin ribbon, finished with a small, tidy knot whose short tails lie flat against the fabric, suggesting readiness to be pinned to a lapel. The lighting is gentle and even, emphasising the interplay between matte petals, glossy berries, and the faint sheen of the ribbon. The piece feels tailored for a groom heading to a wedding at a church near Finsbury Circus, a civil ceremony by Moorgate, or a festive celebration in EC2, capturing a moment of stillness and dignity before the day's excitement unfolds.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant blush pink rose boutonniere is displayed on a pale, textured linen backdrop, the sort of neutral cloth you might find in a refined EC2 studio preparing flowers for a wedding at a nearby city venue. Viewed from slightly above, the semi-open rose sits at the heart of the design, its petals velvety and full, shading from a gentle, powdery pink at the centre to a richer, more vibrant pink along the softly curled outer edges. Encircling the rose, small, cloud-like tufts of creamy white baby's breath introduce a delicate, lacy texture, their tiny blossoms forming a halo that enhances the romantic character of the piece. From behind the central bloom, fine strands of emerald green, grass-like foliage stretch outward in graceful arcs, adding lightness and movement, while a single broader leaf in a deep, glossy green is folded neatly to wrap the base, providing structure and a sense of professional finish. The stems are wrapped in a smooth satin ribbon with a subtle two-tone shift from lavender-pink to magenta-purple, the fabric catching the light with a soft sheen and tied in a modest knot that feels modern yet timeless. Natural, diffused lighting reveals every nuance of the rose's layered petals and the gentle weave of the linen beneath, creating an atmosphere of calm anticipation, as if the boutonniere is waiting to be pinned to a groom's jacket before a ceremony near Shoreditch or Broadgate. The composition balances texture, colour, and form, making this floral accent ideal for weddings, proms, or any special occasion that calls for a refined yet tender touch.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A richly romantic boutonniere lies diagonally across a pale beige, subtly woven fabric, echoing the refined yet relaxed style of City weddings around EC2. The central flower is a striking fuchsia pink rose, its petals densely layered, with the innermost curls still tight while the outer edges begin to unfurl in a soft spiral, creating a sense of poised movement and tenderness. Surrounding the rose, fine sprays of white baby's breath form a delicate halo, the tiny blossoms resembling scattered stars that bring purity and gentle texture to the composition. Just beside them, clusters of gleaming scarlet hypericum berries provide a vivid counterpoint, their rounded, polished surfaces adding both colour intensity and a smooth, tactile contrast to the rose's velvety bloom. Slender, feathery greenery radiates from the arrangement, giving it a slightly airy, botanical feel, while larger, dark green leaves are purposefully curled and shaped to frame the rose and support the buttonhole's compact form. The stems are bound with a bright red satin ribbon, wrapped with precision and tied into a neat bow that hints at thoughtful preparation and the intimacy of dressing for a special day. Soft, diffused light brushes across the linen backdrop, revealing its fine texture while ensuring the floral colours remain rich and true. The overall effect suggests a groom or groomsman standing on a terrace overlooking the City skyline, perhaps just off Bishopsgate, this handcrafted boutonniere pinned neatly at the heart, quietly symbolising joy, commitment, and a celebration about to begin.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A meticulously crafted boutonnière is displayed against a pale beige, linen-like fabric background, its subtle weave and warm undertone reminiscent of a well-tailored suit worn to a registry ceremony near Moorgate. At the heart of the design sits a single rosebud in a vivid shade of deep pink, verging on fuchsia, its petals tightly wrapped in a perfect spiral that suggests both freshness and anticipation. This central bloom is surrounded by delicate sprays of white baby's breath, the countless tiny blossoms creating a light, airy halo that softens the strong colour of the rose and adds a sense of gentle romance. Slender, bright green fronds of feathery foliage arc gracefully out from behind the flowers, their fine texture lending an almost weightless movement, as if stirred by a soft breeze drifting through one of EC2's hidden garden courtyards. The stems of the rose, gypsophila, and greenery are carefully gathered and bound with a smooth, glossy ribbon in a vivid red tone that complements the pink rose while providing a defined, tailored base. The ribbon is wrapped snugly and evenly, forming a neat finish that suggests it will sit securely on a lapel during a day of celebration. Bright, natural-style lighting highlights every detail: the velvety surface of the rose petals, the tiny star-like baby's breath flowers, the filament-like greenery, and the gentle folds of the fabric beneath. The overall impression is of a timeless, romantic buttonhole, perfectly suited for a groom, groomsman, or prom guest making their way through the streets around Old Broad Street or London Wall, looking for a floral accent that quietly yet confidently marks the importance of the occasion.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Poised delicately on a woven linen ground-its pale ecru texture echoing the chic minimalism found in many EC2 venues-this thoughtfully curated boutonniere embodies celebration and tenderness. At the centre, a pale pink rose forms a poetic spiral, each petal offering a soft transition from deep blush at the heart to almost-white at the tips-a perfect metaphor for new beginnings. Accompanying this central rose, an ethereal blush or peach bloom with delicate ruffles (possibly an Alstroemeria or lisianthus) opens generously, showing moments of yellow sunshine at its throat and darkly inked details that lend an artist's touch. Baby's breath sprigs, clustered like miniature clouds, layer an airy counterpoint while lively green button mums add a spark of modern texture. Arranged with slender grasses and sturdy, dark green leaves, including one elegantly folded for visual interest, the boutonniere's foliage provides both structure and movement. The stems are gathered and secured with a glossy, fuchsia satin bow, lending both polish and a joyful spirit fit for any special occasion. The background, with its genuine fabric grain, lends a subtle contrast, ensuring every fresh blossom stands out. With a gentle, fresh fragrance reminiscent of city gardens after rain, this boutonniere is well-suited to a wedding or formal gathering near Old Broad Street, expertly crafted by EC2 Flowers to evoke love, refinement, and a quietly vibrant metropolitan charm.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
On a neutral, light beige background that evokes finely woven linen, a small yet meticulously crafted floral boutonniere is laid out, as if ready to be pinned onto a jacket for a wedding near Moorgate or a chic reception in the EC2 area. The focal flower is a single white alstroemeria, also known as Peruvian lily, its petals broad, slightly undulating at the edges, and delicately marked with reddish-brown speckles that gather near the centre, leading the gaze towards its stamens and softly shaded throat. Just to the left of this bloom, a tight cone of vivid green buds, resembling an Ornithogalum cluster, stands like a miniature spire, each bud snug against the next, creating a textured, almost scale-like effect that contrasts with the smoothness of the alstroemeria. Wisps of baby's breath lace through the design, their tiny white blossoms suspended on fine stems, adding a dreamlike, cloud-soft presence. Around the flowers, lush dark green leaves form a steady base while fine, grass-like strands loop and curl, injecting a sense of movement and lightness, as if caught by a gentle breeze drifting up from the Thames. At the right-hand side of the stems, a bright pink satin ribbon has been tied into a perfectly formed bow, its sheen catching the light and its playful colour suggesting romance and joy. The lighting is clear and even, revealing every nuance: the veins of the foliage, the satiny surface of the petals, and the subtle grain of the fabric beneath. This refined, compact arrangement feels ideal for formal occasions, from City registry office ceremonies to stylish evening events, offering a fresh, modern take on a classic boutonniere.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A refined wedding boutonnière rests at a diagonal angle on a warm, oatmeal-toned fabric that mimics fine burlap or linen, its woven texture giving a cosy, handcrafted feel reminiscent of a small EC2 ceremony tucked away near Moorgate or Old Street. At the centre of this miniature design is a single white lisianthus flower, fully open and in perfect condition, its many ruffled petals spiralling gently to form a soft, rounded bloom. The white is pure yet mellow, catching the soft, even light so that faint shadows trace each petal's curve, suggesting velvety smoothness to the touch. Nestled just to the left are two slender lisianthus buds in creamy pale green, held close to the main bloom like quiet promises of blossoms still to come. Threaded between them are fine sprays of gypsophila, or baby's breath, their tiny star-shaped white flowers lending a cloud-like, romantic haze to the composition. Slim, dark green blades of grass-like foliage arc gracefully from behind the central bloom, fanning out towards the bottom left, while a broader, darker leaf sits discreetly at the back, giving depth and structure. At the lower right, all the stems are trimmed neatly and bound together by a striking fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tied in a crisp, jaunty bow that glows with a subtle sheen. The ribbon's vivid colour stands out against the muted background and soft florals, adding a modern, celebratory twist that would suit a groom or guest heading to a City of London registry office, with the piece photographed in gentle, balanced light to showcase every detail for local florists and clients browsing designs online.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single white orchid boutonniere lies lengthways across a pale beige, linen-textured cloth, the understated background allowing every floral detail to stand out with graceful clarity. The focal bloom is a pristine Phalaenopsis orchid, its wide, rounded petals creamy white and almost translucent at the edges, folding back to reveal a finely patterned centre tinged with soft yellow and a hint of pale pink. Nestled against its base, a gentle cloud of white baby's breath unfurls, each minute flower giving a feathery, romantic fullness and softening the strong shape of the orchid. Slender, fresh green leaves slide out from behind the blossoms, adding a clean botanical line, while to one side a small spray of tender, lime-green buds waits patiently, not yet open but promising future blooms. The stems are neatly bound with a vivid fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tightly wrapped and finished in a petite bow whose shining surface catches the light like a jewel against the neutral fabric. The lighting is calm and even, revealing the satin sheen, the delicate veining in the orchid petals, and the subtle weave of the fabric, as if captured just before being pinned to a lapel. The composition suggests quiet anticipation: a groom adjusting his jacket in a Brick Lane loft, or a prom guest stepping out from a flat near Old Street, carrying the scent of fresh flowers into the evening. Crafted with the precision of an experienced EC2 florist, this design balances modern minimalism with timeless romance, making it ideal for weddings, black-tie events, or any elegant city celebration.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A refined white orchid boutonniere rests on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, its woven texture providing a calm, natural backdrop that enhances the crisp contrast of white petals and fresh green foliage. At the centre sits a flawless Phalaenopsis orchid, its broad, curved petals arranged in a gentle, symmetrical arc, like a quiet smile captured in bloom. The petals have a soft, satin-like sheen, and deep within the throat of the flower, a delicate wash of pale yellow adds a note of warmth, reminiscent of early morning light spilling between the buildings around Moorgate and Liverpool Street in EC2. Clustered closely around the orchid, tiny white baby's breath blossoms appear like a fine mist, forming a cloud of dainty stars that soften the outline of the boutonniere and infuse it with a dreamy, romantic character. Interwoven through these miniature blooms, slender threads of light green foliage unfurl, some fern-like and feathery, others more linear, suggesting movement and bringing a whisper of garden freshness into the urban setting. The stems are gathered with precision and bound in a bright white satin ribbon, wrapped smoothly and finished in a neat, modest bow that hints at the care of an experienced local florist. This polished binding not only secures the arrangement but visually echoes the clean lines of a well-cut suit, the kind you might see on a groom stepping out of a car near Old Broad Street or heading into a chic EC2 restaurant for a reception. The overall impression is one of quiet luxury, understated yet memorable, a lapel flower designed to accompany vows, photographs, and timeless moments on a wedding day in the heart of the City of London.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A classic white rose boutonniere rests at a gentle diagonal across a natural, light beige fabric that resembles finely woven linen, evoking the understated sophistication of a City of London wedding close to EC2. At its heart sits a single creamy white rosebud, petals tightly coiled yet plush and velvety, their soft curves suggesting the bloom is just beginning to open. Around this central rose, airy clusters of pure white baby's breath form a delicate halo, each tiny blossom creating a cloud-like texture that softens the composition. Slender, glossy green leaves and a few fern-like sprigs nestle behind and to the sides of the rose, offering a vivid contrast and a sense of organic movement, like greenery gathered from a quiet square near Finsbury Circus or a shaded corner of Postman's Park. The stems of the rose and foliage are expertly wrapped with a pristine white satin ribbon, its smooth surface snugly encasing the green stems before finishing in a neat, symmetrical bow that sits just below the flower head. In the soft, diffused lighting, the satin has a subtle sheen, while the petals and baby's breath appear almost luminous against the neutral background, which shows a refined, diagonal weave reminiscent of a tailored suit fabric. The image conveys the intimate calm of a groom preparing in a hidden EC2 side street, pinning on this small, meaningful detail before walking to an Old Street registry office or a nearby church. It captures the emotional quiet just before the ceremony: a moment where tradition, tenderness, and contemporary city style meet in one carefully crafted floral accent.
