BUTTONHOLES
Set against a gently woven, light beige linen background, this boutonniere has the quiet beauty of something chosen with care on an early morning walk through Palmers Green, perhaps not far from the tree-lined streets around Aldermans Hill. Two lisianthus blooms form the focal point, their petals a pristine white with ruffled, ink-like edges of rich purple that curl inward, giving a soft, romantic feel. Nestled nearby are tiny tufts of white filler flowers, airy and delicate like a drift of baby's breath, adding the impression of lightness and space between the larger blossoms. Rising gracefully along one side, a slender spike of muscari-tiny, bead-like flowers in a saturated grape-purple-lends height and a touch of whimsical woodland charm. Threaded among the flowers, fine feathery foliage, akin to asparagus fern, spills gently outward, its vivid green fronds creating movement and a sense of freshly gathered greenery. Subtle darker green leaves tuck in at the base, grounding the design and framing two pale, unopened buds that speak of new beginnings and the emotion of the day ahead. The stems are carefully aligned and secured in a smooth wrap of white satin ribbon, tied off with a neat bow that signals this is a finished buttonhole, ready to be pinned for a wedding or formal event. The overall effect is serene and intimate: soft neutrals, crisp whites, deep purples and fresh greens working together to create a lapel flower that feels both polished and personal, like something a local Palmers Green florist would prepare for same-day delivery before a ceremony at a nearby church or registry office.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
On a finely woven, light beige linen surface, a single boutonniere is laid out as if waiting to be pinned to a lapel before a ceremony in Palmers Green. The background fabric, with its subtle texture and warm, natural tone, acts like a quiet stage that lets the colours of the flowers glow. At the heart of the piece, a gathered cluster of soft pink, multi-petalled blooms - reminiscent of miniature stocks or ruffled garden flowers - forms a gentle cushion of colour. Each blossom has a nuanced blush, with slightly deeper pink towards the centre and paler edges, suggesting softness both to the eye and the touch. Nestled among them, countless tiny white baby's breath flowers create a fine, lacy halo, their airy heads giving the design a light, romantic quality perfect for weddings at local venues near Green Lanes or around Palmers Green Triangle. Tiny spikes of lavender and deep purple florets peek through, injecting a note of contrast that feels refined rather than bold. To one side, slender buds shaded from creamy white to fresh pale green - possibly freesias - lie closed, evoking anticipation and new beginnings. Surrounding everything, broad emerald leaves add structure and depth, while wisps of feathery greenery drift outward to soften the outline. The stems are carefully gathered and wrapped in a rich fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into an elegant, symmetrical bow whose smooth, lustrous texture contrasts with the organic forms above. The piece is evenly lit, without harsh shadows, allowing every petal, leaf, and ribbon fold to be clearly seen, like a carefully composed still life that captures the quiet excitement before a wedding or prom in this corner of North London.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere is displayed horizontally on a pale, oatmeal-toned linen fabric, the fine, even weave of the cloth lending a calm, natural backdrop that lets the flowers quietly glow. The rose itself is in that perfect in-between stage of bloom, not fully open yet already revealing its spiral of petals, shaded from a richer peachy orange at the core to a soft, creamy blush at the outer edges. Nestled along one side of the rose is a small spray of white baby's breath, its tiny star-shaped flowers forming a delicate halo that lightens the composition and adds a sense of airiness, like mist over the pond in nearby Broomfield Park. Wispy strands of bright green foliage slip out from behind the main bloom, while two more substantial dark green leaves curve protectively around the stems, offering both a visual frame and subtle support. The stems are carefully gathered and wrapped in a smooth peach satin ribbon, wound tightly enough to feel secure in the hand of a groom or prom guest heading out from a house off Green Lanes. The ribbon ends in a neat, compact bow or knot, its soft sheen catching the gentle, diffuse lighting that falls evenly across the image. The overall mood is one of understated celebration-a refined floral accent created with the kind of care you would expect from a local Palmers Green wedding florist, ideal for a church ceremony, registry office signing, or special event reception at a nearby venue. Every detail, from petal curve to ribbon fold, suggests attentiveness and affection.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
Resting on a soft, light beige linen-like cloth with a clearly visible weave, a refined boutonniere is presented as though waiting for its moment at a Palmers Green ceremony. The focal point is a pristine white phalaenopsis orchid, its large, curved petals smooth and slightly luminous, creating the impression of porcelain captured in gentle daylight. At its heart, the orchid's throat glows with a whisper of soft yellow that gradually deepens into delicate reddish-orange and tawny markings, adding depth and a sense of quiet sophistication. Surrounding this main bloom, airy sprays of white baby's breath form a fine, clouded frame, each tiny blossom adding lightness and romance, like a soft mist along the streets near Palmers Green Station on an early morning. To the left of the orchid, two compact lime-green chrysanthemum-style pom-pom buds, with their intriguing, almost spiky texture, introduce a vivid, contemporary splash of green that keeps the design fresh and youthful. A broad, lush dark green leaf cradles the flowers from beneath, while a smaller leaf near the base adds balance and natural structure, showcasing the careful craftsmanship of an experienced local florist. The stems are wrapped tightly with a bold crimson red satin ribbon, the smooth, glossy fabric coiling neatly to finish in a tidy knot or small bow that injects a vibrant, celebratory energy, perfect for weddings or formal events in and around Southgate and Winchmore Hill. The textured fabric background remains quietly supportive, framing the boutonniere so its colours, layers, and subtle interplay of classic and modern elements can truly shine.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An artfully composed boutonniere lies centred on a softly woven, light beige fabric, reminiscent of natural linen table runners often seen at intimate receptions in Palmers Green's cosy venues. The focal point is a single white Phalaenopsis orchid, its broad, satin-like petals gracefully unfurled, forming a calm, symmetrical shape around a warm throat touched with gentle shades of cream, yellow, and soft orange. The orchid's heart seems to glow subtly against the neutral backdrop, drawing the eye into its delicate detail. Around this central bloom, fine stems of white baby's breath create a halo of tiny blossoms, each no bigger than a pinhead, contributing an airy, cloud-soft texture that contrasts beautifully with the smooth orchid petals. Tucked just beneath the main flower is a vivid cluster of plump, glossy red berries, their rounded forms catching the light and adding a cheerful, festive note, accompanied by a few paler green berry buds that suggest early stages of ripening. Interwoven through the design are lush green leaves in varied shapes-some elongated and slender, others broader with gentle points-giving the piece a sense of freshness, as if it were picked that morning from a garden off Green Lanes. The stems are carefully wrapped in a rich red satin ribbon, secured in a neat knot with short tails that rest lightly against the textured fabric, offering a polished, ready-to-wear finish. The arrangement feels timeless and versatile, ideal for a groom or guest at a Palmers Green wedding, a formal winter gathering, or a seasonal celebration where understated elegance and a hint of romance are desired close to the heart.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An exquisitely detailed pink rose boutonniere rests on a pale beige, linen-textured cloth, the kind of simple yet stylish backdrop you might find in a North London studio near Palmers Green preparing for a wedding morning. The image is taken from slightly above, revealing every nuance of the semi-open rose at its heart. Its petals are smooth and velvety, unfolding in a gentle spiral from a soft blush centre that almost glows, then deepening to a more vivid rose-pink at the outer edges where each petal curls delicately away from the core. Nestled closely around the base of this central bloom are airy clusters of white baby's breath, their tiny, star-like flowers forming a delicate, clouded collar that softens the transition between the rose and the greenery. Threads of slender, grass-like foliage emerge from behind, their fresh green tones lending lightness and a slightly whimsical sweep to the arrangement, while a broader, darker green leaf is carefully folded and arranged to cup the stems, giving the piece a neat, tailored finish appropriate for a groom's or groomsman's lapel. The stems are tightly bound in a glossy satin ribbon that shifts between lavender-pink and deeper magenta-purple, tied with understated precision so the bow does not distract from the flower itself. Soft, diffused lighting smooths across the fabric and the petals, emphasising the natural gradients of colour and the three-dimensional form of the arrangement. This boutonniere radiates a romantic yet modern feel, perfect for weddings, proms, or formal celebrations held in and around Palmers Green, from small ceremonies near Broomfield Park to elegant receptions along Green Lanes.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
An elegant boutonniere is laid out on a pale beige, slightly nubbled fabric background, the texture reminiscent of the kind of natural linen you might find in a boutique along Green Lanes in Palmers Green. The arrangement is centred on a single, luxurious fuchsia-pink rose, its petals wrapped tightly at the core and unfolding into lush, velvety layers that suggest both strength and tenderness. Around this main bloom, delicate sprays of white baby's breath form a soft, misty collar, their tiny clustered blossoms adding a feeling of purity and lightness, like a quiet breath before walking down the aisle. Tucked among the gypsophila are vivid red hypericum berries, small and shiny, adding a playful, festive accent that hints at winter celebrations or late-autumn weddings. Wisps of fine, fern-like greenery stretch outward to give the piece a sense of movement, while darker green leaves are artfully curled and shaped to hold the design together, offering a structured, almost sculptural base. The stems are expertly wrapped in a rich red satin ribbon, carefully wound and secured into a neat bow that provides both comfort and an extra note of romance when pinned to a jacket. Natural light, likely from a nearby window, falls gently across the boutonniere, creating subtle highlights along the rose petals and satin ribbon, and soft shadows that deepen the sense of dimension. The finished look is intimate and refined, a handcrafted floral detail perfectly suited for weddings, proms, or special occasions across Palmers Green and the surrounding North London neighbourhoods.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A finely detailed boutonnière lies gently on a neutral, light beige backdrop, the fabric beneath it resembling softly textured linen often seen in refined North London venues. At its heart sits a single rosebud in a vivid shade of fuchsia, somewhere between deep pink and magenta, the petals tightly coiled so that the bloom feels full of quiet anticipation. The surface of the petals looks smooth and velvety, with subtle variations in tone where the light catches the outer edges, giving the rose a luminous, almost glowing quality. Surrounding this central flower are delicate sprigs of baby's breath, the tiny white blossoms forming loose, cloud-like clusters that bring a sense of airiness and contrast to the intense colour of the rose. Behind and around the flowers, fine, bright green foliage fans outward, its slender, feathery fronds reminiscent of asparagus fern swaying in the breeze at nearby Broomfield Park. Tucked closer to the stem, slightly broader, darker green leaves provide structure and depth, helping the arrangement feel balanced and considered. The stems are bound neatly together with a narrow red satin ribbon, wrapped smoothly and evenly, its glossy finish reflecting soft highlights and adding a polished, formal touch. The image is brightly and evenly lit, revealing every curve of the petals and each tiny baby's breath bloom, evoking the fresh scent and crisp feel of a newly crafted buttonhole ready for same-day delivery around Palmers Green. It captures the intimate emotion of special occasions-weddings, proms, or elegant dinners-where a single rose on a lapel can speak of romance, care, and personal style.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Resting upon a softly woven beige linen, this meticulously arranged boutonniere is a testament to the artistry found at weddings throughout Palmers Green. The centerpiece, a gently blushing rose in pale pink with tightly coiled petals, exudes freshness and intimate beauty. Tucked nearby, a peach-tinted bloom-perhaps a tender lisianthus or alstroemeria-unfurls its pale petals and showcases subtle streaks of gold and plum, inviting a closer look and a sense of quiet wonder. Wisps of dainty baby's breath, reminiscent of North London's morning mists, weave among orbs of lively green miniature chrysanthemums, infusing the composition with texture and vibrancy. Framed by a medley of lush foliage, including tufted fern fronds and sleek, dark leaves folded with the skill of a local artisan, this elegant accessory is finished with a lustrous fuchsia ribbon tied in a classic bow. Its celebratory hue beams against the neutral, tactile backdrop, much like the festivity that fills nearby Palmers Green halls on wedding days. The boutonniere evokes a mood of romance and new beginnings, a subtle nod to tradition and style. When pinned on the lapel, it carries the fragrance and spirit of local gardens, crafted for special occasions where love and community intertwine.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
A compact, elegant boutonniere is laid carefully on a pale, oatmeal-beige fabric that has a subtle linen weave, giving the whole scene a calm, natural backdrop reminiscent of a carefully dressed table in a Palmers Green townhouse. Center stage is a pristine white alstroemeria, its petals opening generously and curling softly at the edges, each one brushed near the base with fine, reddish-brown speckles that add a painterly detail to the otherwise creamy surface. The bloom's stamens are clearly defined, hinting at the faint, green-fresh fragrance associated with Peruvian lilies. To the left, a vivid lime-green bud cluster, shaped like a small tapered spike, introduces an intriguing architectural element; its closely layered buds look almost like tiny scales, bringing crisp structure beside the softness of the main flower. Around these focal elements, wisps of baby's breath drift like small clouds, each minute white blossom hovering on fine stems, adding delicacy and a sense of breathy lightness. Supporting them, a base of dark, pointed leaves runs beneath the arrangement, their smooth surfaces and rich green tone grounding the design, while thin, grass-like tendrils arc and trail, suggesting movement and a modern, slightly untamed flourish. Near the right edge, the stems are gathered and finished with a bright pink satin ribbon tied into a tidy bow, its sheen catching the light and giving a playful contrast to the calm whites and greens. The photograph is softly and evenly lit, highlighting fresh textures without glare, making the boutonniere feel ready to be lifted from the cloth and pinned onto a suit jacket for a wedding along Green Lanes, a prom at a local Palmers Green school, or a milestone celebration at a nearby restaurant. Crafted with attentive detail, it combines classic romance with contemporary styling that feels very much at home in North London.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
An elegant floral boutonnière rests at a gentle diagonal across a warm, oatmeal-coloured fabric that looks like finely woven linen, its subtle texture echoing the relaxed but polished style of weddings around Palmers Green. At the centre of the piece, a pristine white lisianthus flower is fully open, its layered, ruffled petals forming a soft, rounded cup that feels both modern and timeless. Just to the side, two creamy, pale green lisianthus buds stretch upwards, still closed but full of life, suggesting the unfolding of a new chapter. Fine sprigs of white gypsophila are threaded between the main bloom and the buds, their tiny star-like blossoms lending an airy, cloud-like quality to the arrangement, much like a light mist over nearby Grovelands Park on an early morning. Behind the flowers, slim, grass-like blades of deep green foliage fan out gracefully towards the left, adding movement and a natural, garden-fresh feel. A broader, darker leaf sits quietly behind the lisianthus, providing depth and contrast without stealing the show. The stems are carefully aligned and bound together at the lower right with a vivid fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tied into a neat, jaunty bow whose silky sheen catches the light and adds a playful, celebratory accent. Soft, even lighting enhances every curve of the petals and every vein in the foliage, highlighting the care and craftsmanship involved. The boutonnière feels perfect for a groom or guest attending a local ceremony, whether at a Palmers Green townhouse or a nearby venue, conveying understated luxury, freshness, and heartfelt joy in a single, carefully composed floral detail.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single white Phalaenopsis orchid, tranquil and luminous, forms the heart of this boutonniere, resting horizontally on a pale beige, linen-textured cloth that recalls the relaxed, homely style of many Palmers Green celebrations. The orchid's broad petals are immaculate and gently rounded, their surface almost velvety, while the centre reveals fine accents of buttery yellow and soft blush pink, like a quiet sunrise captured in a flower. Surrounding the bloom, delicate sprays of white baby's breath create a misty, cloud-like collar. Each tiny floret adds a sense of airiness, softening the outline and giving the design a dreamy, romantic texture you might expect at an intimate ceremony tucked just off Green Lanes. Slender green leaves slip in between the blossoms, adding a fresh note of colour that grounds the arrangement in nature. Just to the side, a few unopened orchid buds in pale lime green sit poised along a slim stem, their smooth, enclosed forms speaking of new beginnings and moments still to unfold-ideal sentiments for a wedding or prom evening. All the stems are carefully gathered and wrapped in a glossy ribbon of bright fuchsia satin, the bow tied with the precision of an experienced florist, its vivid pink hue providing a joyful pop against the calm neutrals and white petals. The soft, even lighting in the image highlights every gentle curve and subtle texture, from the crisp orchid petals to the slightly nubby weave of the fabric. It feels like a quiet pause before the festivities, a refined accessory ready to be pinned to a lapel or wrist for a special day in the heart of Palmers Green.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A single white orchid boutonniere lies gracefully against a light tan, woven fabric backdrop, its subtle texture reminiscent of the relaxed yet refined interiors found around Palmers Green's leafy streets. The central flower, a flawless Phalaenopsis orchid, opens in broad, sweeping petals of pure white, with a soft sheen that hints at their velvety touch. At the heart of the bloom, tiny strokes of pale yellow and creamy ivory sit deep in the throat, drawing the eye inward and adding gentle warmth to the cool, clean palette. Encircling the orchid, an airy ring of baby's breath unfurls like a cloud, each delicate gypsophila blossom no bigger than a pinhead, softening the edges and giving the design an almost ethereal halo. Fine, threadlike greenery lifts and curves around the white flowers, its vibrant green tones suggesting the freshness of early spring mornings along the New River Path. The stems beneath are neatly aligned and wrapped in a pristine white satin ribbon, the fabric smooth and slightly lustrous, secured with a small, modest bow that signals careful, experienced hands at work. The boutonniere is presented alone, with no distractions, capturing that quiet moment just before it is pinned to a groom's jacket or a proud parent's lapel. The image conveys an atmosphere of calm anticipation and graceful celebration, ideal for a Palmers Green wedding at a local church or registry office, or even a formal event in nearby Winchmore Hill, where understated floral details like this speak of enduring love, thoughtful planning, and an appreciation for classic, timeless style.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A single ivory-white rosebud boutonniere lies at a diagonal angle on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, the weave of the cloth forming a soft, natural backdrop that feels at home in the relaxed yet refined atmosphere of Palmers Green. The rose itself is the undeniable focal point: a medium-sized bloom with smooth, velvety petals that curl inward in tight layers, their creamy tone transitioning gently towards soft ivory at the tips. Peeking out just beneath the petals, faint green sepals add a touch of freshness, as if the flower has only recently been gathered from a carefully tended garden. Surrounding the rose, wisps of white baby's breath create a misty frame, hundreds of tiny blossoms forming delicate clouds that soften the composition and evoke the lightness of confetti drifting through the air outside a local church or registry office. Slender, rich green leaves fan out from the base of the rose, their pointed tips and glossy surfaces lending structure and contrast, while a few finer, airy sprigs of foliage introduce extra texture and depth. The stems of all these elements are drawn together in a narrow bundle and wrapped with immaculate white satin ribbon, wound smoothly and evenly by an experienced florist's hand. Just below the floral head, the ribbon is tied into a miniature bow, the loops neat and balanced, like the finishing touch before delivery to a nearby venue on Green Lanes. Soft, diffused lighting bathes the boutonniere, highlighting the subtle curves of each petal and the gentle sheen on the ribbon without creating harsh shadows. The overall effect is one of refined simplicity: a timeless wedding accessory designed to sit gracefully on the lapel of a groom or groomsman, quietly expressing purity, commitment, and the intimate joy of a North London celebration.
