A boutonniere is a small floral decoration worn by men, typically pinned to the lapel of a suit or tuxedo. It is commonly associated with formal events such as weddings, proms, and other celebrations. The boutonniere usually features a single flower or a small cluster of flowers, often chosen to complement the overall color scheme of the event or the attire of the wearer. Traditionally, the groom and groomsmen wear boutonnieres during a wedding ceremony, symbolizing their roles in the event. The flowers used can vary widely, including roses, orchids, or seasonal blooms, and are often selected for their significance or aesthetic appeal.
