BUTTONHOLES
This close-up photograph captures a single, meticulously crafted boutonniere laid on a pale beige linen surface whose gentle weave and subtle creases add a soft, homely texture, reminiscent of table runners seen in intimate Upper Clapton wedding venues. The central focus is on two open lisianthus blooms, their white petals curling in generous ruffles tipped in a deep, regal purple that pools along the edges like watercolour ink. Nestled among them, airy clusters of tiny white filler flowers-similar to baby's breath-float like a fine mist, filling the gaps and lending a cloud-like softness. Rising gracefully through the design is a slender spike of muscari-style blossoms, tightly packed and bell-shaped, each one a rich grape-purple that deepens the colour story and introduces a more structured, vertical line. Around the flowers, delicate, feathery greenery fans outward, its fresh green fronds reminiscent of asparagus fern or meadow grasses you might brush past on a morning walk toward Walthamstow Marshes. Slightly below and to one side, two pale green buds rest, still closed, hinting at the promise of future flowering and the sense of a new chapter beginning. The stems are neatly gathered and wrapped in crisp white satin ribbon, the fabric smooth and slightly glossy, with a compact bow that marks the point where the florist's hands left their final touch. The composition feels calm, refined, and quietly romantic, a lapel flower ideal for a groom, best man, or prom guest heading out from a Clapton terrace, the boutonniere bringing a whisper of garden elegance and thoughtful craftsmanship to a significant day.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A beautifully detailed floral boutonniere or corsage rests against a finely woven, light beige linen fabric, its subtle cross-hatched texture providing a soft, neutral canvas that evokes a relaxed yet refined Upper Clapton gathering. At the centre, a cluster of soft pink, many-petalled flowers-much like miniature stock or dainty garden blooms-unfurl in gentle layers, their ruffled petals moving from a warmer blush in the middle to a paler edge, as if brushed by morning light. Scattered between the pink blossoms are sprays of delicate white baby's breath, each tiny bloom adding a lace-like lightness that softens the whole composition. Here and there, little sprigs of lavender or deep purple florets introduce a touch of contrast, hinting at late-summer borders in a local garden off Clapton Common. Along one side of the cluster, several slender, creamy white to pale green buds extend gracefully, their closed tips suggesting freesias or similar blooms poised to open, capturing that precise moment before full fragrance is released. The flowers sit on a foundation of lush, emerald green leaves, broad and smooth, creating a rich backdrop, while wisps of fine, fern-like greenery trail outward in relaxed arcs, giving a natural, slightly untamed charm. The stems are neatly gathered and wrapped in a vivid fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into an elegant, symmetrical bow with soft, looping tails that introduce a celebratory splash of colour. The gentle, even lighting reveals every texture-from petal to ribbon-making the piece feel like a thoughtfully handmade accent for a wedding on a quiet Upper Clapton side street, a graduation celebration, or a prom boutonniere delivered locally by a florist who understands meaningful, personal touches.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere is captured in stillness against a pale beige, linen-textured fabric, the fine horizontal and vertical threads forming a gentle grid that frames the flowers without distraction. The rose itself is positioned diagonally, its head leaning slightly to one side as if in a quiet bow, petals spiralling open from a deeper salmon-peach core to creamy, almost vanilla-toned edges. This soft gradient feels reminiscent of early light over the rooftops of Upper Clapton, warm yet delicate. Nestled beside and just above the rose, clusters of white baby's breath create a lacy halo, their tiny rounded blossoms adding both volume and a feeling of airiness, like a soft mist around the main bloom. A few slender green blades and two broader, darker green leaves arch out from the base, giving a natural rhythm and hinting at the nearby green spaces that shape everyday life in this part of London. The stems are carefully gathered and tightly wrapped in a satin ribbon dyed to echo the rose's peachy undertones, the ribbon overlapping neatly and tied off in a small, unobtrusive bow that speaks of practiced florist hands. Everything rests under calm, even lighting, which brings out the silk-like sheen of the petals, the matte texture of the linen, and the subtle gloss of the foliage. The overall mood is one of refined simplicity, perfectly suited to a groom or special guest preparing for a wedding or formal celebration in Upper Clapton, perhaps en route to a ceremony near Clapton Common, where such a handcrafted buttonhole would quietly complement an elegant suit or jacket.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant wedding boutonniere is laid out carefully on a pale beige, linen-like fabric whose slightly coarse weave adds natural warmth without distracting from the flowers themselves. Dominating the composition is a single white Phalaenopsis orchid, its wide, satin-smooth petals unfolding with quiet confidence, as if captured in that perfect moment between bud and full bloom. Inside the orchid's throat, soft yellow tones melt into subtle reddish-orange or light brown markings, a painterly pattern that adds depth and draws the eye inward. Surrounding this central blossom are delicate sprays of white baby's breath, each tiny flower forming part of a mist-like cluster that softens the overall look, much like the gentle light that filters through the trees in nearby Millfields Park in Upper Clapton. To the left, two round lime-green chrysanthemum buds stand out with their intricate, almost spiky texture, providing a lively contrast to the smooth orchid petals and a contemporary twist to the traditional boutonniere style. A broad, deep green leaf curves beneath the flowers, while a smaller, darker leaf peeks out by the stems, adding layers of foliage that frame the composition. At the base, the stems are wrapped with a radiant crimson satin ribbon, smoothly wound and secured into a small, polished bow or knot that introduces a striking splash of red, suggesting joy, celebration, and love. The lighting is soft and even, allowing every nuance of petal, leaf, and ribbon to be clearly visible, as though prepared for a groom, best man, or prom guest stepping out onto the streets of Upper Clapton for a day of treasured photographs and heartfelt vows.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A meticulously crafted floral buttonhole lies centered on a subtly textured, oatmeal-toned fabric that resembles finely woven linen, its soft, natural colour bringing to mind the calm interiors of townhouses around Upper Clapton. The focal point is a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, its wide, silky petals opening like wings, with a gently glowing throat of cream, yellow, and a whisper of soft orange at the core, adding warmth and depth. Encircling this elegant orchid are clusters of tiny white baby's breath blossoms, each stem branching into minute, cloud-like flowers that lend a feathery, romantic softness to the design. Just beneath the bloom, a compact spray of round, glossy red berries offers a bold counterpoint, their rich scarlet tones suggesting festive cheer, winter weddings, or Christmas celebrations. Nestled among them are lighter green, oval buds, which bring a sense of freshness and natural movement, as if just gathered from a nearby garden off Clapton Common. Slender, smooth green leaves of varying lengths and shapes fan out thoughtfully from the base, framing the central orchid and berries with a lively yet refined greenery. The stems are carefully wrapped in a vivid red satin ribbon, the fabric catching a slight sheen where the light touches it, then tied into a neat little knot with short, confident ribbon tails. The overall composition feels intimate, elegant, and perfectly balanced, ideal for a groom, groomsman, or prom guest who wants a small but striking floral accent for a special day in Upper Clapton, reflecting both modern style and timeless romance.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant pink rose boutonniere is displayed on a pale, natural linen cloth, the textured beige background providing a calm, understated stage that lets the flowers take centre stage. The focal point is a single blush rose in semi-open bloom, its velvety petals arranged in soft layers that spiral outward from a delicately cupped centre. The colour shifts subtly from a gentle, powdery pink at the core to slightly deeper, more romantic tones along the curled edges, evoking the look of freshly opened roses you might see in local gardens around Upper Clapton and nearby Clapton Common. Encircling the base of the rose, clusters of tiny white baby's breath create a frothy halo, their miniature blooms forming a cloud-like counterpoint to the fuller rose. Fine, grassy strands of vivid green foliage emerge from behind, arching and fanning out gracefully to frame the central flower, while a broader, darker green leaf is artfully folded to form a tidy collar that gathers the stems together. At the base, a slender band of satin ribbon in a soft lavender-pink tone is wrapped tightly around the stems and finished in a small knot or discreet bow, adding a hint of sheen and tying the colours together with quiet sophistication. Gentle, diffused light sweeps across the scene, picking up the sheen on the ribbon and the subtle contours of each petal, and casting light shadows that give the boutonniere a three-dimensional presence. This carefully composed image reflects the sort of refined, romantic buttonhole a couple might choose for a wedding at a local Upper Clapton venue, or for a prom or special evening out, capturing both the intimacy and polish of a thoughtfully designed floral accessory.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A romantic, handcrafted boutonniere is displayed horizontally across a pale, textured beige fabric, like a swatch of natural linen often used on wedding tables in Upper Clapton's cosy venues. The design centres on a single, rich fuchsia pink rose, its petals smooth and velvety, spiralling inward to a tightly furled heart that hints at fragrance and freshness. Surrounding this focal bloom are delicate tufts of white baby's breath, each tiny flower forming a soft halo that lightens the composition and adds a sense of purity and tenderness. Nestled among these white blossoms are clusters of round, glossy red hypericum berries, their jewel-like shine giving the boutonniere a lively, festive accent that feels perfect for winter weddings or evening celebrations. A mix of fine, feathery greenery stretches out in gentle arcs from the rose, while more substantial dark green leaves are folded and curved to cradle the central flower, offering both support and a rich backdrop of layered foliage. The stems are tightly bound with a red satin ribbon, its surface catching the light with a subtle sheen and tied in a neat, practical finish that will sit comfortably on a suit lapel. The lighting is soft and natural, capturing the details of each petal, berry, and leaf, and emphasising the careful balance of colour and texture. This boutonniere evokes the heartfelt joy of a wedding morning in Upper Clapton, perhaps just before the couple heads past Clapton Common or along local streets to their ceremony, carrying with them a small but beautifully made symbol of love and celebration.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A handcrafted boutonnière is displayed at a gentle angle on a pale beige, linen-like fabric, the textured background creating a calm, understated stage for the colours to glow. At its heart, a single rosebud in a vivid shade of fuchsia or deep pink is tightly furled, the petals appearing almost satiny, with soft highlights where the light brushes their curved edges. The rose feels young and full of anticipation, like the start of a wedding day in Upper Clapton as the first guests gather near Clapton Common. Surrounding this central bloom are delicate sprays of white baby's breath, each tiny blossom forming a light, misty crown that contrasts beautifully with the intensity of the rose's colour. Slender, bright green, fern-like fronds extend from behind the flower, their feathery texture adding movement and a fresh, garden-picked character, while a few darker, more substantial leaves anchor the composition and give it depth. The stems are bound closely together with a narrow red satin ribbon, meticulously wrapped so that no stray stems show through, its glossy surface catching and reflecting the soft light. The ribbon's rich red tone harmonises with the rose, adding a polished, tailored finish that feels perfectly suited to a groom's lapel, a prom suit, or a formal dinner jacket. The overall lighting is bright and even, emphasising the freshness of the flowers and the crispness of each tiny white bloom. This image captures not only the visual detail of a classic rose boutonnière, but also the quiet emotion of a special occasion, like a bespoke piece lovingly prepared by an experienced florist for same-day delivery across Upper Clapton and nearby Hackney.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Artfully positioned on a creamy woven textile, this handcrafted boutonniere exudes a quiet grace familiar to Upper Clapton's celebrations. The central rose, blushing in subtle pinks that deepen at its core, draws the eye with its spiral of presently unopened petals-a symbol of hope and tenderness. Flanking the rose is a soft peach alstroemeria, its open face marked by delicate veining and a sunlit throat, while misty sprays of pure white baby's breath drift nearby, adding a dreamy haze to the design. A touch of vibrant texture emerges with minuscule moss-green cushions, evoking the verdant pocket gardens tucked off Lea Bridge Road. Layers of foliage-slender, arching blades and deep green oval leaves-form an embracing base. One broad dark leaf is folded neatly, hinting at the natural artistry that Upper Clapton florists bring to each creation. All stems are bound in a lustrous fuchsia satin ribbon, tied with care into a small, precise bow and anchored securely, offering a splash of celebratory colour. The arrangement captures the dew-fresh optimism of early mornings by Hackney Marshes, ready to be worn for weddings, proms, or special local milestones. This floral piece seems to carry the gentle breeze and understated joy of a milestone celebrated in the heart of the Upper Clapton community-a floral keepsake grounded in place and craftsmanship.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
A refined floral buttonhole is displayed against a softly textured, pale beige fabric that resembles natural linen, evoking the quiet elegance of a prepared suit laid out before a special event in Upper Clapton. Central to the design is a single white alstroemeria, its petals broad yet delicately ruffled, opening wide to show a scatter of slender reddish-brown streaks near the base, drawing the eye towards its pale green throat and fine stamens. Nestled beside it is a striking column of bright lime-green buds, stacked closely together in a conical spike that feels modern and architectural, a fresh contrast to the more traditional bloom. Fine sprigs of baby's breath thread through the composition, each tiny white flower like a soft snowflake, lending an airy, cloud-like halo around the focal flowers. The foliage forms a compact yet lush frame: solid, dark green leaves with pointed tips give weight and structure, while finer, grass-like blades arc gently away from the centre, adding a sense of flow and lightness that mirrors the gentle movement of trees along the River Lea. A polished pink satin ribbon is tied into a neat bow at one side of the stems, the smooth fabric catching a soft sheen in the even lighting and adding a playful, romantic flourish against the otherwise cool white and green palette. The overall impression is one of freshness, care, and understated sophistication, a boutonniere perfectly suited for weddings, proms, or civil ceremonies across Upper Clapton and nearby streets, ready to be pinned to a lapel and carried through a day of celebration.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single white lisianthus bloom, fully opened and luxuriously ruffled, forms the serene focal point of this refined boutonnière, photographed from above against a warm, oatmeal-coloured fabric that resembles finely woven linen. The neutral background, softly lit and gently textured, allows every petal to stand out, as if the flower has just been selected from a florist's bench on a peaceful morning in Upper Clapton. Nestled just below and to the left, two slender lisianthus buds in a creamy pale-green shade lean close to the main flower, their still-closed forms suggesting new beginnings and quiet anticipation, perfectly suited to a wedding or formal celebration. Around them, airy clouds of white baby's breath are delicately interspersed, each tiny blossom like a pinpoint of light that adds volume without overwhelming the central bloom. Slim, dark green blades of grass-like foliage arc gracefully towards the lower left corner, adding soft movement and a touch of wild meadow charm, while one broader, darker green leaf sits behind the lisianthus, giving the design a grounded, balanced feel. At the base, the exposed stems are cleanly trimmed and wrapped in a bright fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a compact, cheerful bow whose vivid colour provides a contemporary contrast to the soft whites and greens. The ribbon's sheen is subtly highlighted by the even lighting, creating a gentle shimmer that hints at celebration - perhaps a registry office ceremony near Clapton Station or an evening reception by the River Lea. The overall impression is of a fresh, lovingly composed buttonhole that carries the quiet romance and understated style of a local Upper Clapton event.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single white Phalaenopsis orchid, large and serene, forms the heart of this carefully crafted boutonniere, displayed horizontally on a pale beige, linen-textured fabric that feels like the pressed cloths laid out for celebrations in Upper Clapton homes. The orchid's petals are broad and velvety, opening in a perfect oval, their pure white surface glowing softly under even, natural light. At the centre, the lip of the flower reveals gentle tones of warm yellow and the faintest blush of pink, giving depth and character to the otherwise pristine bloom. Surrounding the orchid, delicate stems of white baby's breath arch outward, each tiny, cotton-soft flower creating a misty, romantic frame that softens the overall silhouette. A few slender, bright green leaves slip from behind the bloom, offering a fresh contrast that echoes the foliage you might see walking through nearby Clapton Common. To one side, several unopened orchid buds, pale lime green and tightly closed, add a quiet suggestion of future blossoms and the ongoing rhythm of growth. The stems are gathered and wrapped in a bright fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a compact, tidy bow with short, neat tails that rest against the textured fabric. The ribbon's glossy sheen and vibrant colour introduce a joyful note, as if ready to be pinned to a groom's lapel at a registry office wedding or worn to a prom at a local Upper Clapton school. Together, the soft lighting, gentle colours, and thoughtful details create a feeling of intimate, modern elegance, ideal for a formal event or romantic celebration.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A meticulously crafted white orchid boutonniere is photographed in calm, diffused light against a pale beige linen-like fabric, the subtle weave pattern creating a gentle contrast that lets the flowers shine. At the heart of this piece, a flawless Phalaenopsis orchid bloom opens in smooth, sculpted curves, its petals a luminous white that almost seems to glow. Within the centre, a soft touch of buttery yellow draws the eye inward, adding depth and warmth, like a quiet sunrise over the rooftops of Upper Clapton. Surrounding the orchid, countless tiny tufts of baby's breath cluster closely, each minuscule white flower forming part of an airy, cloud-like halo. These gypsophila sprigs soften the silhouette, giving the boutonniere an ethereal, romantic feel that suits intimate civil ceremonies at nearby Hackney Town Hall or small gatherings in Clapton's characterful venues. Slender tendrils of feathery green foliage weave in and out of the design, their fresh, vibrant tones providing a delicate counterpoint to the white blooms. The stems are expertly aligned and bound together with a crisp white satin ribbon, wrapped smoothly and finished with a trim bow that lies neatly at the base, ready to be pinned onto a suit jacket or waistcoat. The texture of the ribbon contrasts gently with the natural stems beneath, highlighting the care taken in every step of the florist's work. This elegant buttonhole evokes a sense of purity, commitment, and quiet luxury, perfect for a groom, best man, or special guest making their way from a townhouse near Clapton Pond to a wedding celebration. Subtle yet striking, it captures the essence of modern London romance, where clean lines, fresh flowers, and thoughtful detailing come together in one refined accessory.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A refined white rose boutonniere is presented on a light beige, linen-like fabric, set at a gentle diagonal that draws the eye from the neatly ribbon-wrapped stems up to the pristine bloom, as though it has just been placed on a groom's jacket before a wedding in Upper Clapton. The rose itself is a creamy white bud, plump and velvety, its petals still mostly closed yet showing the first soft curls of unfurling at the centre. Subtle shadows fall into the folds of the petals, giving the flower depth and a sense of quiet anticipation, like the calm moments before guests gather along the streets near Clapton Common. Nestled alongside the rose are airy clusters of pure white baby's breath, their tiny, star-like blooms forming delicate, clouded edges around the central flower. These miniature blossoms create texture and lightness, mirroring the soft, romantic mood of riverside photos taken near the Lea. Surrounding these are slender, rich green leaves, some smooth and pointed, others more feathery and fern-like, weaving in and out of the composition to frame the rose and lend a touch of garden freshness. The stems of the rose, foliage, and gypsophila are carefully bound in a band of white satin ribbon that is wrapped in neat, even coils, ending in a small, symmetrical bow just beneath the bloom. The ribbon's subtle sheen contrasts with the matte weave of the fabric beneath, whose crosshatched pattern catches gentle, diffused light. The overall impression is of meticulous craftsmanship and timeless style, the kind of lapel flower a local florist in Upper Clapton might prepare for ceremonies at nearby town halls, intimate restaurant weddings, or classic celebrations across Hackney and East London.
