How To Pin a Boutonniere

A boutonniere is a small flower or a group of flowers worn on the lapel of a jacket or a shirt. Wearing a boutonniere on your wedding day can add an extra touch of elegance to your outfit. While it may seem intimidating, pinning a boutonniere is a simple process that can be done in just three easy steps.

How to Pin a Boutonniere - Pulse Productions Inc.

Step 01: Gather Your Supplies

Before you begin, you will need to gather a few supplies. You will need a boutonniere, a boutonniere pin, and a pair of scissors. The boutonniere should be freshly cut and should have a small amount of water in its stem to keep it hydrated. The boutonniere pin should be long enough to securely hold the boutonniere in place and should be straight, with a sharp point.

Step 02: Position The Boutonniere

Start by positioning the boutonniere on your lapel where you would like it to be. Make sure that it is straight and that the stem is facing downwards. Once you have found the perfect position, use your fingers to gently hold the boutonniere in place.

Step 03: Pin The Boutonniere

Take the boutonniere pin and insert it through the stem of the boutonniere and into your lapel. Start by inserting the pin at the bottom of the stem and angling it upwards. Make sure that the pin goes through the stem and not the petals of the flower. Repeat this step until the boutonniere is securely fastened to your lapel.

It is important to note that the boutonniere should be positioned in a way that the stem is facing downwards, as this will help keep the flower hydrated and looking fresh throughout the day.

Once you have pinned the boutonniere, take a step back and check to make sure that it is straight and secure. If necessary, make any adjustments by gently repositioning the boutonniere and re-pinning it.

Tips for Pinning a Boutonniere
Here are a few tips to help you achieve a professional look when pinning a boutonniere:

  1. Use a Straight Pin: Make sure that the boutonniere pin is straight and has a sharp point. This will make it easier to insert into your lapel and will ensure that the boutonniere stays securely in place.
  2. Insert the Pin from the Bottom: Start by inserting the pin at the bottom of the stem and angling it upwards. This will ensure that the boutonniere is securely fastened to your lapel.
  3. Avoid Damaging the Flower: When inserting the pin, make sure to go through the stem and not the petals. This will help to preserve the appearance of the flower and prevent it from becoming damaged.
  4. Keep it Simple: A simple and classic boutonniere is always a good choice. Opt for a single flower or a small grouping of flowers that complement your outfit and the overall look of your wedding.
  5. Check the Placement: Once you have pinned the boutonniere, take a step back and check to make sure that it is straight and secure. Make any necessary adjustments to ensure that the boutonniere looks perfect.

Pinning a boutonniere is a simple process that can be done in just three easy steps. By following these tips, you can achieve a professional look and add an extra touch of elegance to your wedding day outfit.
