Wedding Flowers: Baby’s Breath Boutonnieres

Mother of the Bride, have you started talking wedding flowers with your girl yet? If not, don’t put it off too long because lots of decisions await concerning the flowers. Altar flowers, reception flowers, bride’s and bridesmaids’ bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages all around, flower girl petals, etc. The list goes on.

Today let’s focus on a simple and inexpensive boutonniere idea—baby’s breath! The number of boutonnieres needed can add up quickly so expense might be a very important factor in deciding what flowers to go with. Baby’s breath is inexpensive but looks very classy, as you can see from the photo above.

Baby’s breath is an idea that can work for all the men and boys in the wedding party, unless the bride and groom would like to have something slightly different for the groom. It’s always a nice touch to have something special for him. After all, he’s one of the two main stars on wedding day!

Why not check with your happy couple, MOB, and see if baby’s breath boutonnieres will strike their wedding flower fancy. Classy and inexpensive is always a good choice, right?!
