While most of the floral details will focus on the bride and the reception don’t think of the groom and groomsmen’s boutonnieres as an afterthought. This small accessory can add the groom’s personality to his wedding day look. Many brides will have their florist select a single bloom from the bride’s bouquet for the groom’s boutonniere but there are other options. San Francisco based floral designer Erin Rosenow has just launched a complete line of “Bespoke Boutonnieres” under the name Fritts Rosenow www.rosenowfloral.com that allow the groom to wear a custom designed boutonniere that reflects the wedding’s location, theme or his favorite pastime.
Amanda Elizabeth Jewelry offers something sparkly for the groom on his wedding day. The artist makes flower-shaped boutonnieres in silver, copper or gold. Designs include carnations, thistles and oak leaves. After the wedding, the memento can be displayed in a shadow box.
For many couples, the guy's involvement in the planning ends right after he pops the big question. One great way to get your husband jazzed about planning is to have him choose the groomsmen gift. Functionality is key here; you need to get the guys something that they can use on a daily basis. Briefcases and messenger bags make perfect groomsmen gifts and what's more, it can double as their welcome bag. The Top-Zip Portfolio from Piel Leather comes in black, chocolate and tan. Priced at $90.00, custom monogramming is available for an additional $20.00. www.Luggage.com
