BUTTONHOLES
On a softly woven, light beige linen background, a single boutonniere rests as if waiting to be lifted onto a tailored jacket in St James's just before the vows. The fabric behind it has a subtle, natural texture, like the weave of a fine napkin in one of the local gentlemen's clubs, and it gently frames the delicate flowers. At the centre, two lisianthus blooms open gracefully, their petals a luminous white with finely ruffled edges traced in deep, regal purple. The contrast feels both romantic and composed, suitable for a classic London wedding. Nestled among them, clusters of tiny white filler flowers-reminiscent of baby's breath-bring a cloud-soft lightness that softens the stronger purple tones. Rising beside the main blooms is a slender spike of muscari, its tightly packed, bell-shaped flowers shaded in velvety blue-purple, adding texture and a touch of old-world charm. Two pale green buds rest along the edge, still closed, hinting at freshness and the idea that the day is just beginning. Wisps of fine, feathery greenery curve around the flowers, likely asparagus fern, mixed with a few slightly broader, richer green leaves that offer balance and grounding. All the stems are pulled together at the base and carefully wrapped in smooth white satin ribbon, finished with a compact, elegant bow. The design feels thoughtfully composed, perfect for a groom, best man, or prom guest wandering from Jermyn Street towards a nearby venue, wearing a small piece of garden beauty that whispers of tenderness, commitment, and the calm before celebration.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined floral boutonniere is showcased against a softly textured, neutral linen backdrop, the fabric's gentle weave evoking the classic interiors of St James's clubs and galleries. The small arrangement centres on a cluster of multi-petalled, blush pink blooms, their ruffled edges curling delicately like miniature garden stocks or spray carnations. Each flower holds a subtle play of colour, with slightly deeper pink at the tips fading into a whisper-light centre, creating a tender, romantic mood ideal for a wedding ceremony tucked away near Jermyn Street or an elegant civil service close to St James's Park. Threaded through these central flowers are airy sprays of white baby's breath, the tiny, cloudlike blossoms giving a feeling of softness and light, as though the arrangement were captured in a moment of quiet celebration. Scattered accents of tiny lavender or dusky purple florets punctuate the pinks and whites, adding depth and a touch of modern contrast while still keeping the palette gentle and composed. To one side, a small fan of slender buds in creamy white and fresh pale green reach outward, reminiscent of freesia, their closed forms hinting at blooms yet to fully unfurl. These buds are anchored by smooth, broad leaves in a vibrant green that form a protective cradle around the flowers, while wisps of fine, fern-like greenery emerge from beneath, introducing a slightly untamed, garden-inspired note. At the base, the stems are gathered with precise care and wrapped in a luminous fuchsia satin ribbon, finished in a neat, symmetrical bow whose cascades lie softly across the fabric. Prepared with the attention to detail you'd expect from a seasoned St James's florist, this boutonniere radiates understated luxury and is perfectly suited to formal wear, from tailored morning suits to chic evening jackets.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere is presented in calm, balanced detail against a pale beige, linen-textured fabric, the fine weave running evenly beneath it like a soft, urban canvas. The rose itself, positioned slightly on the diagonal, appears midway through bloom, its petals unfolding in layered spirals from a rich, warm salmon-peach centre to paler, creamy tips that catch the light with a velvety glow. Clusters of airy gypsophila, or baby's breath, gather to one side, their tiny white flowers scattered like delicate confetti, introducing a gentle brightness and hinting at celebrations and city weddings. Around the rose, slender, vibrant green foliage stretches and curves outward, while two deeper green, broader leaves wrap protectively around the base of the stems, offering both visual grounding and subtle structure. The stems are tightly bound with a peach satin ribbon, closely matching the rose's tone; the ribbon is wrapped in precise, smooth coils and finished with a modest little bow, suggesting the attentive craftsmanship of an experienced florist working just off the busy streets of St James's. Soft, even lighting flows across the scene, highlighting the contrast between the plush rose petals, the feathery gypsophila, and the slightly nubby linen backdrop, creating a mood that feels both intimate and refined. This boutonniere seems destined for a tailored lapel at a wedding near Green Park or a formal event in one of the nearby private clubs, its understated elegance capturing the quiet joy of a special day in central London's historic heart.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant wedding boutonniere lies carefully positioned on a pale beige, linen-like cloth, its slightly coarse weave forming a calm, understated backdrop. Dominating the design is a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, its smooth, generous petals curving outward like folded silk, with the centre glowing in shades of gentle yellow and fine reddish-orange speckles. Nestled close to the orchid are feathery sprays of white baby's breath, their tiny blooms forming a soft halo that feels light as mist drifting through nearby St James's Park. To the left, two compact lime-green chrysanthemum spheres introduce a fresh, contemporary twist; their tight, almost pin-cushion texture contrasts playfully with the orchid's softness and the baby's breath's delicacy. A glossy deep green leaf stretches beneath the cluster of flowers, giving structure and a sense of natural balance, while a smaller, darker leaf tucks in beside the stems. These stems are bound together with a striking crimson satin ribbon, wound smoothly and finished in a tidy knot or miniature bow, the red echoing the refined warmth of evening celebrations in the private clubs of St James's. The light falls gently from above, revealing individual veins in the foliage and the faint shadows cast by each petal edge. This boutonniere feels tailored yet romantic, the sort of carefully composed floral accent a local florist in St James's would prepare for a groom, groomsman, or special guest attending a ceremony, reception, or black-tie event in the heart of London.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An artfully styled boutonniere is photographed from above against a pale beige, woven linen backdrop, evoking the calm, polished atmosphere of a dressing room in St James's on a wedding morning. At its centre is a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid bloom, its wide, satin-smooth petals gently curving outward as if mid-breath. In the middle of the flower, a subtle wash of creamy yellow deepening into soft orange draws the eye inward, lending warmth and a hint of luxury. Surrounding the orchid, feathery clusters of baby's breath form a soft, cloudlike ring, each tiny white floret adding volume and an ethereal lightness that plays beautifully against the orchid's bold shape. To one side, a tight cluster of round, glossy red berries provides a striking, jewel-like accent, their rich tone suggesting festive winter weddings or formal celebrations near The Mall and the surrounding galleries. Interspersed among them, a few paler green berry buds introduce a note of freshness and gentle contrast. Slender and broader green leaves emerge from the base, their varied shapes and rich tones cradling the flowers like a natural frame. The stems are gathered and wrapped in a vivid red satin ribbon, the fabric smooth and slightly lustrous, tied into a neat knot with short, well-trimmed tails that sit flat and composed. The composition feels balanced and intentional, a refined buttonhole that could be chosen for a groom, best man, or stylish guest, crafted with the kind of care local florists in St James's bring to intimate city weddings and black-tie events.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant blush-rose boutonniere rests on a natural, light beige linen surface, captured from a slightly overhead viewpoint that shows every carefully considered detail. At the centre is a semi-open rose in shades of soft blush to vibrant pink, its velvety petals unfolding in a gentle spiral that suggests both freshness and tender romance, like something chosen for a wedding morning in St James's, just steps from The Mall. Encircling the rose, dainty sprays of white baby's breath create a cloud of tiny, pearl-like blooms, adding airiness and a classic bridal feel. From underneath, fine strands of vivid green, grass-like foliage arc gracefully outward, their slender lines giving a sense of movement and lightness, while a single darker green leaf is folded and wrapped around the base to form a tidy, sculpted cradle for the flowers. The stems are tightly bound in a two-toned satin ribbon, shifting between lavender and deeper magenta-purple, with a smooth, slightly glossy finish that catches the soft light and brings a touch of refined colour contrast. The woven texture of the linen beneath provides a calm, neutral backdrop, reminiscent of an understated Mayfair or St James's interior, allowing the rich pinks and fresh greens to stand out without distraction. This carefully composed image evokes the feeling of a groom's boutonniere or prom accessory prepared just before being pinned to a lapel, ready for photographs in nearby St James's Park or a reception at a local club, capturing the quiet anticipation and joy of a day centred on love and celebration.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
On a pale beige, slightly nubbled fabric that resembles fine linen or burlap, a handcrafted boutonniere is carefully arranged, its colours glowing softly in the gentle overhead light. At the heart of the design is a single, luxurious fuchsia-pink rose, fresh and full, its central petals still snugly furled while the outer layers start to unfurl in a velvety spiral. Encircling this rose, delicate sprays of white baby's breath cluster like tiny stars, their fragile stems and miniature blossoms softening the composition and adding an air of innocence and tradition. Nestled among them are polished red hypericum berries, rich and rounded, bringing in a slightly playful, celebratory energy, as if hinting at toasts and laughter in a St James's townhouse or a smart venue off Jermyn Street. Fine fern-like fronds extend lightly outward, contrasting with the darker, broader foliage that is artfully curled and layered to create a strong, compact base. Every leaf seems placed with intent, giving the arrangement both structure and a sense of fluid motion. The stems are bound together with a length of sumptuous red satin ribbon, wrapped smoothly and finished in a small, precise bow that lies flat against the fabric, designed for comfort under a jacket lapel. The lighting catches the satin's soft sheen and the subtle gloss of the rose petals, emphasising the care and craftsmanship behind the piece. This boutonniere feels tailored for a groom, best man, or formal guest attending a wedding near St James's, perfectly balancing romance, elegance, and a hint of London formality that a studio like Florist St James's understands so well.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
An elegant boutonnière is captured in close detail, resting on a pale beige, linen-like fabric that has a subtle weave, similar to the refined textures found in the tailoring houses around St James's. At the centre sits a single rosebud in a vivid shade of fuchsia pink, its petals tightly wrapped and satin-smooth, holding that poised, just-about-to-open energy that feels perfect for the morning of a wedding or an important celebration. Around the rose, clusters of tiny white gypsophila blossoms form a delicate froth, each miniature flower adding a sense of lightness and air, like a soft breath of cloud against the more saturated pink. Encircling this are varied green elements: a couple of darker, broader leaves create a solid base while wispy, grass-like fronds extend beyond the edges, their bright green tones introducing a fresh, garden-like charm reminiscent of a walk from Pall Mall towards St James's Park. The stems of the rose, baby's breath, and foliage are carefully aligned and bound at the base with a smooth, coral-red satin ribbon, wound with precision so that no loose ends show. The ribbon has a gentle sheen, reflecting the light and harmonising with the pink of the rose while subtly contrasting with the neutral backdrop. The lighting is bright but soft, emphasising texture rather than harsh shadows, so you can almost sense the coolness of the petals and the crisp snap of the greenery. This refined buttonhole feels handcrafted for a groom, groomsman, or prom date who wants a modern yet classic floral accent, suitable for any formal gathering across St James's and the surrounding central London venues.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
This St James's-inspired boutonniere is a poetic blend of gentle hues and sophisticated detail, thoughtfully assembled by local florists who appreciate the area's classic elegance. At the heart, a pale pink rose, its tightly furled petals hinting at both innocence and promise, anchors the design with understated luxury. Alongside, a delicate blossom-possibly an Alstroemeria or Lisianthus-holds petals painted in muted peach and blush, opening to reveal a soft touch of yellow at the centre. Baby's breath, as light as morning mist, floats between the main flowers, sprinkled with small, vibrant green button mums for a refreshing accent. The foliage forms a lively frame: slim, dark green blades stretch upwards, while flat, bold leaves-some neatly folded-provide a grounded structure. A singular, broad green leaf is wrapped around the gathered stems, reflecting careful craftsmanship reminiscent of St James's bespoke traditions. The whole composition is tied with a shiny fuchsia pink satin ribbon, fashioned into an elegant bow at the base, with its glossy surface catching the light like a celebratory echo. Resting on a neutral, oatmeal-toned textile aligned at a tasteful angle, this boutonniere invites touch as much as admiration. Imbued with the scent of a fresh English garden, it's an ideal lapel piece for weddings, proms, or any milestone in St James's, weaving together the spirit of occasion and botanical finesse.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
A compact, elegant boutonniere is photographed from above on a pale, linen-like background that feels calm and understated, much like a quiet morning in St James's before the city fully wakes. At its centre sits a single white alstroemeria, often called a Peruvian lily, with petals that appear smooth and almost satiny to the touch. Their edges are slightly curled and ruffled, and near the base, delicate reddish-brown streaks draw the eye inward to the flower's open, pollen-tipped stamens. To the left of this focal bloom rises a slim, conical spray of lime-green buds, each bud neatly layered over the next, adding height and a sculptural texture that contrasts with the alstroemeria's softness. Threaded through the composition are fine sprigs of white baby's breath, their clusters of minute blooms giving a gentle, cloud-like haze that lightens the design. Underneath, broad, darker green leaves provide a strong, leafy base, while fine, grass-like strands arc and weave around the flowers, creating a sense of movement, as if the piece had just been caught in a soft breeze drifting up from St James's Park. The stems are bound to the right with a glossy, bright pink satin ribbon, tied neatly into a small, perfectly formed bow that introduces a joyful, celebratory accent against the neutral fabric and fresh greens. The lighting is soft and even, revealing the natural texture of every petal, leaf, and ribbon, conveying the quiet anticipation of a wedding, prom, or black-tie event in the West End, where a detail like this boutonniere completes a suit with subtle romance and refined style.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A refined floral boutonnière, carefully positioned at a slight angle on a warm oatmeal-coloured fabric, captures the understated luxury often associated with weddings in and around St James's. The fabric background has a visible weave, like fine linen or soft burlap, its neutral beige tones providing a calm canvas for the flowers. Centred slightly to the right is a pristine white lisianthus in full bloom, its many ruffled petals unfolding in soft, rounded layers that lend the piece a romantic, almost cloud-like quality. Just beneath and to the left of the main flower, two elongated eustoma buds rest side by side, their pale green and cream surfaces smooth and unbroken, hinting at blossoms yet to open. Threaded delicately among them are tiny sprays of white gypsophila, each diminutive flower head catching the light and adding a sense of airy fullness without overwhelming the design. Slender blades of dark green, grass-like foliage sweep gracefully from behind the lisianthus towards the lower left corner, providing a dynamic line that draws the eye along the length of the boutonnière. A single broader green leaf is tucked discreetly behind the bloom, adding depth and a gentle shadow that enhances the flower's crisp whiteness. The stems are neatly trimmed and bound together at the base with a striking fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tied into a small but confident bow. Its smooth, lustrous texture and bold colour create a stylish contrast, suggesting a groom or groomsman with a modern flair, perhaps making their way from a ceremony near The Mall or Pall Mall to a reception close to the heart of St James's.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single white orchid boutonniere rests gracefully on a neutral, light beige linen surface, the subtle texture of the fabric evoking the feel of a finely tailored suit in a St James's gentlemen's outfitter. The orchid, most likely a Phalaenopsis, opens fully at the centre of the arrangement, its broad, smooth petals a crisp, luminous white that catches the soft, diffused light. At the flower's heart, gentle strokes of creamy yellow and the faintest whisper of pale pink draw the eye inward, creating a focal point that feels both serene and romantic. Encircling the base of the orchid, tiny heads of white baby's breath cluster together, forming an airy, cloud-like ring that softens the composition and lends a dreamy, almost poetic lightness. A few slender, glossy green leaves extend discreetly from behind the bloom, adding balance and a refreshing, natural accent. Off to one side, two pale, lime-green orchid buds sit tightly closed on a delicate stem, hinting at the next chapter of the flower's life and bringing a quiet sense of anticipation. The stems are carefully wrapped with a vivid fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tied into a precise, delicate bow whose satin sheen introduces a graceful splash of colour and a touch of celebration. The lighting is gentle and even, highlighting the velvety texture of the petals, the fine grain of the linen, and the tiny, spherical buds of the baby's breath. Crafted with the kind of meticulous care you might expect from a local St James's florist close to Jermyn Street, this boutonniere feels ideal for a groom, groomsman, or prom guest, conveying refined elegance with a modern romantic twist.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A single white orchid boutonniere is carefully positioned on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, its subtle woven texture echoing the refined interiors often found in historic townhouses around St James's. The focal orchid, a pristine Phalaenopsis bloom, opens with serene confidence, its velvety white petals forming a graceful oval that gently cups the centre of the flower. Within the heart of the orchid, a soft wash of pale yellow and ivory flickers near the throat, adding warmth and dimension without disturbing the overall purity of the design. Encircling this central flower, countless tiny baby's breath blossoms float like a delicate mist, their snow-white clusters creating a clouded halo that softens the edges of the boutonniere. Between these airy blooms, slender stems of fine, wispy green foliage weave through, introducing a fresh, garden-like feel, as if the piece has just been composed in a quiet studio near St James's Street. The stems are drawn neatly together and wrapped in a smooth band of bright white satin ribbon, the fabric lying flat and sleek, with a small, precise bow that suggests skilled, practiced hands. Soft, even lighting falls across the scene, revealing the gentle sheen on the orchid petals and the matte texture of the ribbon, while the neutral backdrop allows the whites and greens to stand out without distraction. The overall mood is one of calm sophistication and heartfelt intention, the kind of lapel flower a groom might wear to a ceremony overlooking Green Park, capturing pure emotion in an elegantly restrained floral detail suitable for weddings, formal occasions, and classic St James's celebrations.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined white rose boutonniere is shown resting at a gentle angle on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, its subtle diagonal weave catching the light in a way that feels quietly sophisticated, much like the elegant townhouses around St James's. At the centre is a single ivory-toned rosebud, its petals smooth and velvety, cupped tightly yet beginning to ease open at the edges, as though capturing the promise of the wedding ceremony itself. Surrounding the rose are small sprays of white baby's breath, each tiny bloom like a fleck of soft foam, adding a dreamy, clouded texture that contrasts with the rose's more defined form. Long, tapered leaves in deep, polished green extend behind and to the sides, with a few finer, fern-like fronds threading through, giving the arrangement a graceful, slightly organic outline. The stems are drawn together and wrapped with immaculate precision in white satin ribbon, its surface silky and faintly luminous, ending in a petite, symmetrical bow positioned just below the head of the flower. Gentle, natural-looking light falls across the scene, illuminating the creamy petals and catching the sheen of the ribbon, while delicate shadows trace the contours of the greenery on the neutral background. The overall impression is of a classic, understated boutonniere, perfectly suited to a groom's tailored jacket at a ceremony near the clubs and galleries of St James's, or for a formal reception in one of the area's historic venues. Though compact in size, the careful balance of colour, texture, and form reveals the practiced hand of an experienced florist, turning a simple white rose into a quietly expressive emblem of love and commitment.
