BUTTONHOLES
Resting on a pale, woven linen background that recalls a well-loved tablecloth in a Stepney terrace home, this wedding boutonniere is captured in serene, flattering light that softens every texture. The focal point is a pair of white lisianthus flowers, their petals gently fluted and edged with a deep, velvety purple that almost seems brushed on by hand. This rich border frames the creamy centres, creating a bi-colour effect that feels both classic and contemporary. Tucked alongside them are tiny clusters of white filler blooms, reminiscent of baby's breath, which introduce a cloud of fine, delicate detail. Rising just behind is a slender spire of muscari, its small, bell-shaped florets packed tightly along the stem in an inky blue-violet, anchoring the palette with a deeper note. Sprays of airy, fern-like greenery radiate from the base, their fine needles and soft arcs evoking the feathery foliage you might glimpse along the paths near Stepney Green Park after a spring shower. Two pale green buds, still closed, sit within the arrangement, suggesting the quiet promise of the hours ahead-vows spoken, photographs taken, hands held. All the stems are drawn neatly together and dressed in a smooth white satin ribbon, wrapped snugly and finished with a refined bow, ready to be pinned to a lapel. The overall impression is of an understated, poetic buttonhole: fresh, cool-toned, and calm, ideal for a groom who wants his flowers to feel like a whisper of colour against a dark suit as he steps out onto Commercial Road or into a nearby registry office. Every element feels intentionally placed, a small yet meaningful detail of a bigger celebration.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
On a softly textured, sand-coloured linen surface, a finely crafted boutonniere or petite corsage is displayed as if just finished on the workbench of a Stepney florist preparing for an intimate East London wedding. The focal point is a cluster of delicate, multi-petalled blossoms in gentle shades of blush and soft rose pink, their ruffled petals layered like tiny silk skirts. Nestled among these central flowers are airy sprigs of classic white baby's breath, each tiny bloom hovering on slender stems, giving the arrangement a cloud-like lightness that balances the richness of the pink tones. Threaded through the composition are subtle touches of lavender and deeper purple florets, offering a quiet depth of colour, like dusk settling over the streets around Whitechapel and Shadwell. Extending to one side, several elongated buds in creamy white and pale green-resembling young freesia or slender lily buds-reach outward in a gentle arc, still partially closed and full of anticipation, evoking that calm moment just before a bride steps out in front of family and friends. At the base, lush, broad leaves in vibrant green embrace the stems, while fine, feathery foliage and slender grass-like strands fan softly outward, suggesting a natural, garden-fresh feel that wouldn't be out of place near Stepney Green Park. The stems themselves are gathered tidily and wrapped in a luxuriously bright fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a smooth, symmetrical bow with short, elegant tails that rest neatly on the linen. The lighting is soft and even, revealing every subtle shade and texture, from the velvety petals to the sheen of the ribbon, creating an impression of careful craftsmanship and quiet celebration suitable for weddings, proms, or formal gatherings across the local E1 community.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere is presented in serene detail against a pale beige, linen-textured fabric, the kind of understated backdrop that lets you almost feel the cloth beneath your fingertips. The rose is caught mid-bloom, not fully open yet invitingly unfurled, with its centre glowing in rich apricot and soft tangerine tones that fade gradually to creamy, pastel peach at the outermost petals. Tucked close to its upper edge is a cluster of white baby's breath, each tiny bloom like a dot of soft light, echoing the delicacy of bridal veils and adding gentle contrast to the rose's round, plush form. Fine green blades of foliage, some straight and some slightly arched, emerge discreetly from behind the flower, while two wider, glossy dark green leaves sweep around the base of the stems, creating a natural cradle that frames the design. The stems are expertly bound in a matching peach satin ribbon, wrapped snugly and finished with a simple, graceful knot that hints at the steady hands of an experienced local florist. The whole arrangement lies quietly on the woven fabric, lit by diffused, even light that picks up every curve of petal and every strand of gypsophila without casting harsh shadows. There is a sense of calm, romantic anticipation, as though this boutonniere is waiting to be pinned to a jacket for a wedding at a registry office off Commercial Road or a prom near Stepney Green Park, a subtle yet meaningful accent prepared for same-day wear in the heart of East London.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
On a pale, linen-like fabric in warm beige tones, a single white orchid boutonniere is laid out as if ready to be pinned to a lapel just before a ceremony in Stepney Green's historic streets. The Phalaenopsis orchid at the centre appears pristine and serene, its wide, velvety petals unfolding in a gentle arc that catches soft, even light. In the middle of the blossom, a subtle splash of creamy yellow deepens into fine reddish-orange and light brown markings, giving the heart of the flower an intricate, almost painterly detail. Surrounding this focal bloom, delicate sprays of white baby's breath form a filigree of tiny round flowers, like a whisper of frost or a drift of blossom confetti after vows have been spoken at a local church. To the left, two round lime-green chrysanthemum buds provide a playful contrast; their tightly set, spiky petals create a textured, pom-pom effect that feels contemporary and fresh. Underpinning the flowers, a rich deep green leaf provides a natural base, with a smaller dark green leaf near the base adding layered depth and structure. The stems are wrapped with precision in a vivid crimson red ribbon, wound tightly and finished in a small, tidy bow or knot, adding a bold flash of colour that hints at celebration and joy. The background's visible weave suggests natural linen or hessian, evoking relaxed yet refined East London wedding styling. This boutonniere feels like it was composed by an experienced local florist for a groom heading to a ceremony near Stepney, Whitechapel, or along the canals toward Limehouse Basin, carrying a discreet but memorable touch of floral artistry.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined floral buttonhole is displayed on a light beige, woven linen-style fabric, photographed from a gently elevated angle that reveals every carefully placed detail. At its centre sits a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, the petals broad, smooth, and almost porcelain-like, curving softly around a throat washed with creamy yellow and touches of warm orange. Surrounding the orchid are delicate sprays of baby's breath, each tiny white flower like a miniature star, building a soft, cloudlike halo that gives the design a romantic, ethereal quality. Nestled just below, a small cluster of round, glossy red berries glows vividly, adding a joyful, festive pop of colour that feels perfect for a winter wedding near Stepney Green or a smart celebration by the canals towards Limehouse. A few pale green berry buds introduce a subtle variation in tone, echoing the freshness of the foliage. Lush green leaves weave between the blooms and berries, some wider and pointed, others slim and more elongated, creating gentle movement and a natural, garden-picked feel. At the base, the stems are gathered and expertly wrapped in a rich red satin ribbon, the fabric smooth and lustrous, tied into a compact knot with short trailing ends that signal the piece is ready to wear. The neutral, textured background allows the whites, greens, and reds to stand out with clarity, highlighting the craftsmanship you might expect from a local Stepney florist preparing buttonholes for a riverside warehouse wedding, an intimate registry office ceremony, or a chic prom night across East London.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant pink rose boutonniere is displayed on a pale, textured linen cloth, photographed from a slightly overhead viewpoint that reveals both the intricate floral work and the careful finishing at the stem. At its heart sits a single rose in a soft blush-pink shade, the petals unfurling in a gentle spiral from a still-sheltered centre towards outer edges where the colour deepens into a more confident rose-pink. The bloom looks freshly cut, with a velvety sheen that suggests the cool, faintly sweet scent you might catch in a florist's shop near Stepney Green on a spring morning. Encircling the base of the rose, clusters of delicate white baby's breath form tiny, cloud-like tufts, each dotted with minute blossoms that lighten the composition and introduce a classic bridal feel. Slender, grass-like strands of bright green foliage arc outwards behind the flower, giving movement and a soft spray effect, while a single broader leaf in deep green is elegantly folded to wrap and support the stems, creating a neat, tailored look perfect for a wedding suit or prom tuxedo. The stems are bound tightly in a satin ribbon in gentle shades of pink, tied into a modest bow whose short tails rest against the linen, adding a touch of sheen and romance without overwhelming the design. The lighting is soft and diffuse, casting minimal shadows and emphasising the rose's contours, as though the piece is being checked one last time before same-day delivery to a ceremony near Shadwell Basin or a celebration in a Stepney restaurant. The overall mood is refined, intimate, and quietly joyful.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A romantic boutonniere rests on a pale beige, woven fabric background, the subtle texture of the material reminiscent of rustic table linens you might see at an intimate Stepney wedding reception. At the centre of this floral accent is a single, striking fuchsia-pink rose, its petals densely layered and satin-smooth, spiralling from a tightly furled core into a fuller, more open bloom that suggests freshness and quiet confidence. Around the rose, delicate sprays of white baby's breath create a soft halo, their countless tiny blossoms giving a light, airy contrast to the bold central flower. Nestled among these cloud-like clusters are a few bright red hypericum berries, rounded and lustrous, introducing an extra pop of colour that feels both festive and refined. Slender, feathery fronds of greenery extend outward, while darker, broader green leaves are artfully curled around the base, forming a sculpted collar that frames the rose and holds the composition together. The stems are tightly and neatly wrapped in a deep red satin ribbon, secured in a tasteful bow that lies flush against the fabric, suggesting both comfort and durability when pinned to a lapel. The natural, diffused light casts soft shadows along the weave of the background and over the contours of each petal and berry, highlighting the florist's careful craftsmanship. This boutonniere feels perfect for a groom or groomsman walking through Stepney towards a ceremony near Mile End Park, or for a formal event guest wanting a refined floral touch that hints at love, celebration, and local East London character.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A refined single-stem boutonnière is displayed diagonally across a neutral, light beige fabric, the weave of the material faintly visible, reminiscent of linen or soft burlap often seen on rustic-style tables around Stepney wedding venues. At the centre sits a luscious rosebud in a bright yet deep pink tone, somewhere between fuchsia and magenta, its petals smooth, tightly furled, and full of promise. Surrounding this focal bloom, airy clusters of tiny white gypsophila, or baby's breath, add a delicate, frothy texture, each tiny flower catching the light and creating a gentle contrast against the saturated pink. Fine, grass-like sprigs of bright green foliage stretch and fan out from behind the rose, giving the arrangement a light, natural feel, while a few broader dark green leaves anchor the design with subtle structure. The stems are carefully aligned and wrapped in a coral-red satin ribbon, its surface slightly glossy, catching soft highlights and forming a clean, tailored base that would sit neatly against a lapel. The piece is lit with clear, bright light, enhancing the freshness of the petals and the vibrant interplay of pink, white, and green, while the calm background keeps the focus entirely on the flowers. This buttonhole suggests the quiet excitement of a wedding morning in Stepney, perhaps worn by a groom leaving a townhouse off Commercial Road or a guest heading to a ceremony near Stepney Green, capturing the blend of elegance and heartfelt emotion that marks life's most memorable celebrations.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
This exquisite boutonniere, carefully placed on an oatmeal-toned linen reminiscent of local Stepney textiles, feels like a subtle celebration of romance and craft. An immaculate pastel pink rosebud sits at its centre, its petals tightly layered in a classic swirl, capturing the promise and purity often found in new blooms seen at Stepney Green Market. Alongside, a delicate Alstroemeria with peach and blush pink tones, its petals gently unfurled to expose unique yellow streaking and dark speckles, adds personality and warmth. Flanking the main blooms are clouds of pure white baby's breath and sprightly green button mums, whose rounded forms create both visual lift and depth. Sprays of slender grasses and verdant fern fronds arch lightly upwards, softening the outline; beneath, deep green broad leaves, some gracefully folded, offer both structure and visual grounding. The finishing touch-a lustrous fuchsia satin ribbon, tied in an understated bow-signals festivity and care, reflecting the subtle attention to detail embraced by local florists. Lit by diffuse, gentle daylight, the ensemble glows with understated elegance, ideal for a groom or guest on their special day in Stepney. Each element contributes to an overall impression of tenderness and artistry, echoing the tranquil beauty one might find in the pocket parks and community gardens of this East London neighbourhood.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
A compact, elegant boutonniere is carefully laid upon a subtly textured, pale beige fabric that looks like fine linen, its muted tone providing a calm backdrop for the flowers to take centre stage. The eye is drawn first to a pristine white alstroemeria, fully open yet still fresh and firm, its softly ruffled petals edged in cream and dusted near the centre with fine reddish-brown speckles, like tiny brushstrokes across a painter's canvas. This single bloom suggests grace and thoughtfulness, ideal for a groom or guest stepping out in Stepney for a wedding at a local registry office or a celebration close to Limehouse. Just to the left, a vivid lime-green cone of tightly layered buds, likely Ornithogalum, rises with sculptural precision, giving the piece a contemporary twist and a sense of upward movement. Fine sprays of white baby's breath thread between the main elements, their countless miniature blossoms creating an airy, cloudlike veil that softens the overall look. Rich, dark green, pointed leaves cradle the flowers and extend outward, while narrow, grass-like strands curl gently, adding fine lines and delicate texture that catch the soft, even lighting. At the right-hand side, the stems are wrapped and finished with a neat, satin pink bow, its bright yet tender colour evoking romance and quiet joy. The composition feels balanced and serene, the flowers appearing freshly gathered that morning, ready for same-day wear at a prom in Stepney or an anniversary dinner not far from Stepney Green Park, capturing a moment of anticipation and celebratory calm.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single, fully opened white lisianthus bloom sits proudly at the centre of this elegant boutonnière, positioned diagonally on a pale beige, linen-like fabric that recalls the calm, neutral tones of a Stepney loft interior. Its petals are ruffled and layered, forming a soft, rounded cup that looks almost like whipped cream, their pure white surface catching the gentle, diffused light and giving the flower a luminous, serene presence. Tucked just to the left, two slender lisianthus buds in creamy green stand close together, still wrapped tightly, as if saving their moment for later in the celebration, echoing the quiet anticipation before a wedding ceremony at St Dunstan's in the East or a registry office near Mile End. Around the central flower, airy heads of white gypsophila are scattered, their tiny blossoms dusting the arrangement with a cloud-like, romantic haze that feels timeless and delicate. Fine, dark green, grass-like blades of foliage fan out from behind the lisianthus, angling towards the bottom left corner, adding a graceful sweep of movement that softens the neat formality of the piece. A deeper, broader green leaf is nestled discreetly behind the bloom, grounding the design with a touch of depth and structure. At the base, the stems are carefully aligned and bound with a vivid fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tied into a small, confident bow that pops brightly against the otherwise understated palette. The ribbon's silky sheen and joyful colour suggest personality and celebration, making this small floral accessory perfect for a groom, best man, or stylish guest stepping out in Stepney for a special day. Illuminated by soft, even lighting, every petal, bud, and leaf is clearly defined, showcasing the thoughtful craftsmanship behind this refined floral detail.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Laid carefully across a pale, linen-textured cloth reminiscent of a calm table setting in a Stepney terrace home, this floral boutonniere captures a moment of poised elegance before a special event. The focal point is a single white Phalaenopsis orchid bloom, its petals broad, velvety, and perfectly formed, unfurling with a graceful curve that feels both modern and timeless. At its centre, the orchid reveals a soft wash of yellow with the gentlest blush of pink, like a quiet sunrise over nearby Mile End Park, adding warmth and character to the clean white. Encircling the base of the orchid, clusters of tiny white baby's breath create a delicate, cloud-like collar; each small floret adds volume without weight, giving the design an ethereal, airy quality. Slender, fresh green leaves slip out from behind the flowers, their bright colour providing a natural counterpoint to the whites and creams. To one side, a sprig of pale green orchid buds, still tightly closed, suggests new beginnings and the unfolding of the day ahead - perfect symbolism for a wedding or prom night. The stems are gathered with care and wrapped in a narrow band of vivid fuchsia satin ribbon, finished in a neat, understated bow whose glossy texture catches the soft, even light. The pink ribbon introduces a joyful, celebratory accent, ideal for pairing with a dark suit or tuxedo for an event anywhere from Stepney Green to Whitechapel. Every element - from the serene background to the refined floral choices - contributes to a feeling of quiet anticipation and thoughtful craftsmanship.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A carefully crafted wedding boutonniere lies on a natural, light beige woven fabric, the subtle weave recalling the textures of market stalls along nearby Whitechapel Road. At its heart sits a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, petals smooth and gently arched, as if cupped in an almost protective gesture. The bloom's centre reveals a soft wash of pale yellow and cream within the throat, a quiet glow that adds warmth and dimension to the otherwise cool white surface. Around this central orchid, delicate clusters of white baby's breath unfurl like tiny stars, forming a misty cloud that softens the lines of the arrangement and gives it a dreamy, ethereal quality. Interlaced among the gypsophila are fine, feathery shoots of fresh green foliage, perhaps asparagus fern or a similar light greenery, their slender fronds offering a gentle contrast in both colour and texture. You can almost imagine the faint, green scent they carry, a reminder of early-morning flower deliveries winding through Stepney's streets. The stems are neatly aligned and wrapped in a band of pristine white satin ribbon, smooth and slightly lustrous, which is tied off in a small, precise bow near the base, signalling that this piece is ready to be pinned to a lapel. The soft, even lighting reveals every curve of petal, every cluster of tiny buds, while the neutral fabric backdrop ensures that nothing distracts from the floral artistry. This boutonniere feels tailored for a groom standing in a historic East London venue, its understated elegance echoing promises of loyalty, calm strength, and enduring love in a neighbourhood that blends old brickwork with new beginnings.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined wedding boutonniere rests at a gentle diagonal on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, its subtle crosshatch texture reminiscent of carefully pressed suits waiting in a Stepney dressing room before a ceremony. The focal point is a single creamy white rosebud, medium-sized and elegantly shaped, its velvety petals wrapped closely together with just a hint of unfolding at the centre, suggesting a moment of love about to fully bloom. Framing the rose are soft tufts of white baby's breath, each tiny flower like a snowflake suspended in mid-air, creating a cloud-like border that lightens the entire composition. Tucked behind the bloom, slender, pointed leaves in deep, polished green and a few airy, fern-like sprigs provide a vivid backdrop, echoing the natural greenery found around Stepney Green Park. Together, they cradle the rose and give the boutonniere depth and structure without overwhelming its simplicity. The stems are firmly bound with a smooth white satin ribbon, wrapped in tight, even coils, and finished with a small, precise bow that sits just beneath the flowers, ready to be pinned to a groom's or groomsman's lapel. Soft, diffused lighting flows across the scene, enhancing the creamy whites, the fresh greens, and the subtle sheen of satin, while the neutral background keeps the eye on the floral work. The image conveys a sense of calm anticipation, as if captured moments before a couple exchanges vows in a local Stepney venue, making this a beautifully understated symbol of commitment, ideal for formal events, weddings, or civil ceremonies across the neighbourhood.
