Boutonnieres are meant to designate your ushers, best man and special family members. Typically, the father and grandfather of both the bride and the groom wear boutonnieres. Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing your boutonnieres:

1. Boutonnieres can range in price range anywhere from $3.00 - $15.00, depending on the type of flower(s) and the intricacy of the design. If you are on a budget, stick with a simple style.
    
2. The groom's boutonniere should be different in style, color or type of flower from the other groomsmen. For example, a white rose can be used for the groom and a colored rose (to match bridesmaid attire) can be used for the best man and ushers.
    
3. The most popular flower used for boutonnieres is roses. Other flowers that can be used include; small orchids, stephanotis, freesia, or carnations.
    
4. Many times a flower in the bride's bouquet is also used for the groom's boutonniere.
