Enhancing the Groom’s Wedding Day Look: The Essential Buttonhole Collection
To complete the groom’s wedding day ensemble, a buttonhole, or boutonniere as it is known across the pond, is an essential finishing touch. These small yet artistic creations serve as a reflection of the bridal bouquet and add a perfect touch of elegance.
When it comes to buttonholes, there is a wide array of options available. However, floral arrangements are the top choice for most men.
Buttonholes are typically worn by key members of the wedding party, including the groom, best man, groomsmen, ushers, and fathers of the couple. As a general rule, if they are dressed in wedding suits, they should wear a buttonhole.
Let us guide you in selecting the ideal buttonhole to enhance your wedding day attire and elevate your overall look. Our talented florists will create a miniature masterpiece that captures the beauty and style of your chosen bridal bouquet.
Discover the timeless charm and sophistication of our buttonhole collection, meticulously designed to enhance the appearance of the wedding party and create cherished memories.For inquiries or to explore our buttonhole options, please contact us at 094 936 6858 or visit our website www.ballaflorists.com .
I’m glad to be celebrating a fresh start because my tendency is to push on, always to the next thing. But lately, I’m choosing to pause, reflect, and evaluate much more. This pause, even briefly, has allowed space to exercise gratitude.
So today on the blog I’m reflecting on 2022 and looking back has me feeling sentimental, incredibly proud, and immensely thankful.
I’m seriously so thrilled with all we have accomplished! I have assembled a fantastic team and built new offerings and we will soon be moving into our new bespoke studio.
On a final note, I also want to thank you so very much for being here for us in 2022. The Balla Florists mission is to bring relevant, meaningful floral delights to the world. Your participation, feedback, comments, love, and support help us keep chugging!
Blessings to you in the New Year and enjoy the recap!
Beautiful hoops we created . Our moongate was booked so we came up with this idea for Dorothy- We prepared x 3 large sections which featured as the main Backdrop in the marquee at their reception at The Aran Islands Hotel , Inis Mór, Aran Islands, Co Galway
Introduction
Dorothy McMahon, is One half of The Wedding Marketers in Galway. I was lucky to meet Dorothy through my Friend Sinéad Nic Gabhann who is the other half of this very talented duo. Sinéad is a beautiful award winning wedding singer and herself and Dorothy were school pals. I assisted the girls with one of their clients The Ardilaun Hotel In Galway on Wedding tips for their couples and prop ideas for this infamous Galway Landmark. This is how i first met Dorothy.
And the wedding plans begin!
Dorothy was also preparing for own wedding to her sweetheart Padraig who owns and runs another famous Galway landmark, McDonagh’s Fish & Chips! In my Galway College days this was a haunt of ours . The Fish & chips with a side of Mushy peas from McDonaghs ! Pure food Love! http://www.mcdonaghs.net/
So i was thrilled to be asked to prepare their wedding flowers . And defying superstition this beautiful couple were married on Friday 13th september 2019.
The flowers
Dorothy was a joy to deal with as She said she would love bird cages and really bright flowers – So Balla Florists were allowed what we do best . We could be creative! be flamboyant! be colourful! and use all our favourite flowers! Dahlias, ranunculas, stock, lisianthus, peonies and delphiniums! A dream come through -.
The Venue
Our back drop to the Aran Islands ( Oileáin Árann) , the Atlantic Ocean really cultivated our wedding theme – Lots of natural flowers with copper and earthy utensils. https://www.aranislandshotel.com/weddings/
Transport via Water
We sent everything over via ferry with the year-round ferry passenger service Aran Island Ferries from Galway Harbour. https://www.aranislandferries.com/
Their wedding came together so well – beautiful wedding bouquets, Florals hoops for flowergirls and stunning buttonholes.
Dorothy’s centrepieces were divine. We provided our Tall gold stands. They are amazing for adding height and a WOW factor to a room. Here a lush arrangement with bright florals and a mix of beautifully scented roses, ranunculus, Peony roses and lisianthus . We also used alternating lower centrepieces filling our gold birdcages with beautiful florals . They filled the room with scent and romance. The stands can be set out along tables or to form a top table arrangement. Smaller vases and candlesticks along the table finish the look.
