Boutonnieres:: Traditional or Modern?

{Source}

I have already decided what type of boutonniere the guys will be sporting at the wedding and I didn't stick with the traditional flower. I wanted something different and funky. Plus I couldn't find any brown flowers, lol! So FI liked the simple fiddlehead fern with a little greenery to bring in our colors. Here are some gorgeous traditional bouts and some not-so traditional ones. I don't think you could go wrong either way, and bouts add such an elegance to the grooms attire. So will you go traditional or go with something more modern?

  3. how cool! i think we're going semi-traditional with the bouts, but we might funk it up a little with a fern curl (or "monkey tail" as one florist called them!).

  4. I like your attitude - to have fun with it! I'm trusting our florist with the bouts. We are probably somewhere in between traditional and modern... :)

  6. I love the bout with quail feathers (at least I think those are quail feathers)! It is so unique!

    I guess we are going more traditional with a non-traditional edge.

    The fern curl bouts are also adorable! I am sure whatever you pick out will look amazing!
