BUTTONHOLES
A refined wedding boutonniere rests against a softly woven, light beige linen background, the subtle fabric texture echoing the quiet luxury of a well-chosen suit. At its centre, two lisianthus flowers open like miniature garden roses, their petals an ivory white that gently transitions to a deep, cool purple along each ruffled edge. The coloured margins curl lightly, catching the light and giving the impression of movement, as if the blooms were just picked from a sheltered garden near the Thames in Barnes. Around these focal flowers, tiny white filler blossoms sit like a mist, their small, rounded petals bringing softness and a sense of calm. A narrow, upright stem of deep violet muscari rises alongside, its closely packed, bell-shaped florets forming a textured column that adds depth and a slightly wild charm, reminiscent of spring walks through nearby Barnes Common. Slender, feathery greenery frames the design, with fine, fern-like fronds and a few more robust green leaves lending structure while keeping the look airy and natural. Two pale green buds nestle among the foliage, their unopened forms symbolising new beginnings and quiet anticipation. At the base, the stems are pulled together in a clean bundle and wrapped in smooth white satin ribbon, the finish crisp and polished, with the neat tie suggesting expert hands and attention to detail. The overall composition feels intimate and understated - ideal for a groom, groomsman, or stylish guest who wants a floral accent that whispers of romance, local gardens, and thoughtful preparation rather than bold spectacle on a special day in Barnes.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
Set against a pale, woven linen background the colour of warm sand, this floral boutonniere is captured in an intimate close-up that lets you almost feel each petal under your fingertips. At the heart of the design is a charming cluster of soft blush-pink flowers, their ruffled, multi-layered petals reminiscent of miniature stocks or garden blooms just opened in a sheltered Barnes garden. Their gentle gradient-from a slightly richer rose at the centre to a powdered pink along the edges-creates a sense of softness and depth. Nestled among them, countless tiny white baby's breath blossoms float like a fine mist, giving a light, cloud-like texture around the focal blooms. Slender sprigs of small lavender or deep purple flowers intersperse the design, introducing a cool note of colour that subtly anchors the airy pastels. On one side, several elongated buds in creamy white and pale green, likely freesias or narrow lily-like blooms, stretch outwards, their smooth, closed forms hinting at fragrance and freshness yet to unfold. Beneath and behind the flowers, rich emerald-green leaves fan out, their broad surfaces polished and strong, while delicate wisps of grass-like foliage curl away from the base, echoing the natural, slightly untamed charm of the Thames path near Barnes Bridge. The stems are meticulously bound together and finished with a bold fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a neat, symmetrical bow whose sheen catches the light. This carefully crafted buttonhole feels designed for a wedding or formal event in Barnes or nearby Putney, a small but meaningful accent that speaks of care, craftsmanship, and quiet celebration.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere is presented on a light beige, linen-like fabric that shows a subtle, even weave, as if laid out on a calm dressing table before a ceremony in Barnes. The rose itself is the clear focal point, angled elegantly across the frame, its petals curling outward in soft layers that move from a rich, warm apricot in the centre to a creamy, pastel peach around the edges. The bloom looks freshly cut, with that velvety, almost cool texture you feel when a rose has just been prepared by an experienced florist. Tucked to one side and slightly above the rose, a delicate spray of white baby's breath (gypsophila) adds a whisper of airy texture, each tiny blossom catching the soft, even light. Fine green sprigs and two deeper green leaves coil gracefully around the base of the rose, the foliage providing contrast and structure while hinting at the leafy streets and gardens around Barnes Common. The gathered stems are tightly wrapped in a smooth, peach satin ribbon that matches the rose's tone, wound so neatly that no loose ends show, then finished with a small, tidy bow near the base. The ribbon has a gentle sheen, catching just enough light to signal formality without feeling showy. Overall, the boutonniere radiates quiet sophistication and tenderness, perfectly suited to a groom's lapel, a prom date's jacket, or a special guest at a local riverside celebration, embodying the kind of thoughtful floral detail you might choose for meaningful moments shared close to home.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant white orchid boutonniere rests against a softly woven, light beige linen background, the neutral cloth acting like a quiet stage for a small piece of floral art. The central bloom is a pristine Phalaenopsis orchid, its large petals creamy and smooth, opening in a gentle curve that suggests both strength and fragility. In the centre, a soft yellow flush deepens into fine reddish-orange veining, adding intricate depth to the otherwise pure white flower. Around this focal orchid, clusters of delicate baby's breath appear almost weightless, each tiny white blossom catching the light like a dusting of snow, softening the composition. On the left side, two compact lime-green chrysanthemum-style pom-poms introduce a vivid, contemporary edge, their densely packed, spiky petals creating a tactile contrast to the orchid's satin-like surface. A lush, deep green leaf fans out underneath, framing the flowers, while a smaller, darker leaf near the base subtly enhances the layered greenery. The stems are carefully gathered and wrapped in a rich crimson satin ribbon, wound tightly to form a sleek handle that ends in a modest knot or bow, adding a bold yet tasteful ribbon of colour associated with celebration and romance. The calm lighting and minimal background evoke the quiet moments before a ceremony in Barnes, perhaps just off the High Street or near the river path, when a florist at Flowers Barnes pins this finishing touch to a lapel. The boutonniere feels ideal for weddings and formal events across SW13, balancing timeless wedding tradition with fresh, modern detailing and impeccable craftsmanship.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An artfully composed boutonniere is photographed from slightly above, lying on a pale beige, woven cloth that resembles natural linen, its texture adding a gentle rustic note to the scene, like something you might find on a table set for a wedding reception in a Barnes riverside venue. At the heart of the piece sits a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid, its broad petals smooth and waxy, curving outward in a serene, open gesture. The centre of the orchid glows with soft tones of creamy yellow and muted orange, a warm, inviting contrast that draws the eye inward. Surrounding this central bloom are clusters of delicate white baby's breath, each tiny star-shaped flower forming an airy mist around the orchid, softening its bold shape and introducing a sense of lightness and romance. Beneath and beside the orchid, glossy, round red berries gather in a tight spray, their rich, cherry-red surfaces catching the light to create a subtle shine, while a few younger, pale green berries offer variation and a feeling of new growth. Lush green leaves, smooth and elliptical, are tucked in at different angles so they peek out around the flowers and berries, giving structure and movement and echoing the greenery of nearby Barnes Green or the towpath along the Thames. The stems are wrapped in a vivid red satin ribbon, carefully wound and tied into a neat, compact knot at the base, its slight sheen adding a celebratory finish. The whole arrangement feels composed yet effortless, a refined floral accent suited to a groom's lapel, a prom night in South West London, or a winter celebration, reflecting the quiet elegance Flowers Barnes brings to local events.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An artfully crafted pink rose boutonniere is displayed against a gently woven beige linen fabric, the sort you might find on a well-laid table in a Barnes High Street restaurant hosting an intimate wedding reception. Viewed from slightly above, the composition centres on a single blush pink rose, partly open yet still holding a touch of bud-like innocence. Its velvety petals form concentric layers, paler at the softly glowing centre and gradually intensifying into a deeper, more romantic pink at the ruffled outer edges. Clusters of delicate white baby's breath gather at the base of the rose, their tiny rounded blossoms creating a light, cloud-like collar that contrasts beautifully with the smooth petal surfaces. Behind the main bloom, slender, vivid green strands of decorative foliage splay outward in loose arcs, adding movement and a sense of natural spontaneity, as if freshly cut from a riverside garden near Barnes Common. A single, broader green leaf has been folded and wrapped with precision around the lower portion of the stems, giving the piece a tailored, almost architectural foundation. At the base, a satin ribbon in soft pink tones is wrapped snugly around the stems and finished in a small, refined bow, its subtle sheen catching the light. A discreet, silver-coloured pin is visible near the base, ready for the boutonniere to be fastened to a suit or tuxedo lapel. The neutral linen background, with its quiet texture and warm undertone, allows every nuance of colour and craftsmanship in this classic rose boutonniere to be clearly seen, evoking romance and celebration for weddings, proms, or black-tie events across Barnes and the surrounding southwest London neighbourhoods.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Resting on a pale beige, gently woven fabric that looks like fine linen or soft burlap, this elegant boutonniere feels intimate and handcrafted, as if prepared just before a ceremony in one of Barnes' leafy churches or near the river. At its heart is a single fuchsia pink rose, rich and velvety, with petals that spiral inward toward a tight centre and then softly unfurl, suggesting both romance and confidence. Surrounding the rose, airy sprigs of white baby's breath form little clouds of texture, their tiny blossoms offering a delicate contrast against the bold central flower. Interspersed among the white are clusters of smooth, glossy red berries, probably hypericum, which introduce a vivid, jewel-like accent that hints at festivity and warmth. Fine, feathery greenery emerges from the arrangement, adding a sense of movement, while broader, darker green leaves are folded and curved around the base, lending depth, structure, and a polished finish. The stems are neatly bound in a luxurious red satin ribbon, wrapped with precision and tied in a small, tidy bow that echoes the rose and berries in tone. Soft, even lighting creates gentle shadows on the fabric and highlights the contours of each petal and leaf, making the whole piece appear almost three-dimensional. Viewed from above, the design showcases the kind of careful detail and artistic balance you'd expect from a seasoned local florist, ideal for a groom's lapel at a wedding reception in Barnes or a formal celebration in nearby Richmond or Putney.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
On a pale, natural-looking linen backdrop, a meticulously crafted boutonnière is displayed at a gentle diagonal, as if just set down by a florist's hand. The focal point is a single rosebud in a saturated fuchsia to deep magenta hue, its petals tightly furled, giving it a sense of contained energy and youthful romance. Surrounding this central bloom, tiny white gypsophila flowers cluster like small puffs of cloud, each minuscule blossom adding softness and fine detail, enhancing the contrast between the bold rose and the calm, neutral fabric. Encircling the flowers is a thoughtful mix of greenery: some leaves are broader, darker, and slightly glossy, offering structure and depth, while slender, grass-like sprigs and feathery bright green stems fan out loosely, giving the piece a light, airy profile that recalls the relaxed elegance of a stroll through Barnes Common. The stems are carefully aligned and bound with a rich red satin ribbon, wrapped tightly and smoothly to create a polished handle, with a subtle loop or bow that catches the light in gentle highlights. The lighting is bright yet diffused, revealing the freshness of the petals and foliage, from the delicate veins of the leaves to the crisp edges of each tiny white flower. This boutonnière feels perfect for a groom or groomsman walking into a ceremony at a local Barnes venue, a prom date meeting on Church Road, or any formal event where a refined, handcrafted floral accent adds an intimate touch of colour, fragrance, and personal style to a well-pressed lapel.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Evoking the gentle charm of Barnes village, this delicately assembled boutonniere rests slightly angled against a creamy, textured linen backdrop that recalls the fabric of boutique cafés and studios by Castelnau. At the centre, a tightly furled blush rose conveys youth and freshness, its petals spiralling inwards from rosy pink to soft pastel on the outermost tips, capturing the stillness of dawn on Barnes Pond. Nestled beside it, a graceful pink Alstroemeria blooms with hints of peach and subtle gold, petals etched with dark, natural striations. Clusters of baby's breath, minute cloudlets of white, weave among playful orbs of crisp green miniature mums, creating a touchable, multi-layered contrast that draws the eye and hand alike. Foliage in varying shades-some slender and arching, others broad and nestling-gives this petite masterpiece depth, while a larger deep green leaf wraps seamlessly around the bundled stems. Binding the composition is a glossy fuchsia satin ribbon, fashioned into a neat bow whose rich colour joyfully punctuates the arrangement. The neutral, tightly woven fabric surface beneath accentuates every soft hue and textural nuance, suggesting both tradition and modernity in its look. Perfect as an accessory for a groom or wedding party in leafy Barnes or along the Thames waterfront, this hand-tied floral pin by Flowers Barnes conveys romance, harmony, and local character-a classic piece designed to mark milestones, crafted by a knowledgeable community florist.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
A thoughtfully crafted boutonniere, photographed from above on a pale, linen-like beige fabric, appears calm and composed, ready to be fastened to a suit jacket for a ceremony in Barnes or perhaps a riverside celebration near Barnes Green. At the centre, a single white alstroemeria, also known as a Peruvian lily, opens gracefully, each petal broad and slightly undulating at the edges. Fine reddish-brown speckles and streaks gather near the throat of the flower, drawing the eye inward to the exposed stamens and adding a painterly detail that speaks of precision and care. To the left side of the bloom rises a striking lime green spike of tightly packed buds, evoking Ornithogalum or a ginger-like cluster, its structured form giving the arrangement a modern twist. Around these focal elements, airy sprigs of white baby's breath float like tiny stars, each cluster a cloud of minuscule blooms that soften the lines and deepen the sense of delicacy. The foliage below is a mix of sturdy, dark green, pointed leaves that provide visual weight, and long, slender blades of grass-like greenery that loop and curl, suggesting gentle movement, as though stirred by a breeze across the nearby Thames Path. The stems are gathered and secured on the right with a slim, gleaming pink satin ribbon tied into a neat, symmetrical bow, adding a playful flash of colour and a whisper of romance against the quiet palette of whites and greens. The light is soft and even, revealing textures without harsh shadows and capturing the feeling of a peaceful, expectant morning as a florist at Flowers Barnes completes the finishing touches for a local wedding or prom.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single, serene white lisianthus bloom lies diagonally across a pale beige, woven fabric that resembles natural linen, the subtle texture and warm tone reminiscent of a calm afternoon in a Barnes townhouse or riverside venue. The flower is fully opened, its many ruffled petals creating a soft whirl of ivory that looks almost like folded silk, inviting the eye to linger on each gentle curve. Nestled close to this central bloom are two elongated lisianthus buds, still closed and tinged with creamy green, placed just to the left and slightly below, hinting at the quiet promise and anticipation that often surrounds a wedding day or formal celebration. Fine sprays of white baby's breath weave through the arrangement, their tiny clustered blooms adding a misty, delicate halo around the focal flower, softening the edges and creating a feeling of lightness. Behind the blossoms, slender, dark green, grass-like leaves sweep outward toward the bottom left corner, their graceful lines giving the boutonnière a natural sense of movement, as if shaped by a gentle Thames breeze. A deeper, broader green leaf supports the main flower from behind, grounding the composition and enhancing the white petals by contrast. At the base, the stems are gathered with care and secured by a bright fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a small yet lively bow whose smooth sheen and vivid colour inject a joyful, contemporary twist. The whole piece is photographed from above with even, flattering light, revealing every petal edge and ribbon fold, much like a carefully styled buttonhole ready to be delivered by a Barnes florist for a groom, usher, or special guest on a memorable London occasion.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single orchid boutonniere rests gracefully on a pale beige, linen-textured fabric, the scene lit with soft, even light that feels like a quiet morning along the Thames in Barnes before guests arrive for a ceremony. At the heart of the design is a pristine white Phalaenopsis orchid, its broad petals gently curved and slightly translucent at the edges, capturing hints of luminosity. In the centre of the bloom, delicate strokes of soft yellow and barely-there blush pink trace the throat, giving the flower a gentle warmth and a sense of depth. Surrounding the orchid's base, fine clusters of white baby's breath form a light, misty cushion, each tiny blossom adding to the dreamy, cloud-like texture. A few slender, glossy green leaves arch subtly from beneath, introducing a fresh, natural contrast that grounds the design. Off to one side, a small stem extends outward, bearing a pair of pale lime-green orchid buds, still tightly closed and smooth, suggesting the promise of blooms yet to open. The stems are neatly bound together with a vivid fuchsia pink satin ribbon, tied in a small, polished bow whose satin sheen catches the light and adds a joyful, celebratory accent. The neutral oatmeal background, with its gentle weave, provides a calm stage that highlights the purity of the white petals and the precision of the florist's work. This delicate floral accessory feels perfect for a groom, groomsman, or prom guest walking through Barnes Village, capturing a balance of contemporary simplicity and timeless romance that would complement formalwear without overwhelming it.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
Against a softly woven, light beige backdrop that resembles natural linen, a meticulously crafted white orchid boutonniere lies ready to be pinned, evoking the quiet elegance of a riverside wedding reception in Barnes. At the heart of the piece is a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid bloom, its petals broad and gently curved, with a subtle glossy sheen that catches the light like reflections on the Thames near Barnes Bridge. The orchid's center reveals a tender wash of pale yellow in the throat, giving warmth and depth to the otherwise snowy palette, and suggesting a fresh, just-opened bloom. Encircling this focal flower are airy clusters of baby's breath, each tiny white blossom contributing to a soft, cloud-like aura around the orchid, softening the silhouette and lending a dreamy, romantic character that would suit a refined ceremony at one of Barnes' historic venues. Slender strands of delicate green foliage, reminiscent of maidenhair or asparagus fern, weave through and under the white flowers, adding a gentle movement and a refreshing contrast, as though freshly snipped from a shaded garden off Church Road. The stems are neatly aligned and wrapped in a crisp white satin ribbon, the fabric smooth and luminous, finished with a small, understated bow that signals expert florist craftsmanship.

WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A single white rose boutonniere is displayed at a gentle diagonal on a pale beige textile backdrop, the fabric's subtle diagonal weave reminiscent of finely woven linen one might find in a well-loved Barnes home close to the Common. The central rosebud is a creamy ivory white, its petals smooth and velvety, wrapped tightly around each other with just the slightest hint of unfolding at the edges, as if caught in the very first moments of bloom. Tucked closely around it are airy clusters of baby's breath, each tiny white blossom forming a constellation of soft points that create a halo of lightness and romance. Slender sprigs of lush, deep green foliage curve gracefully along the sides of the rose, with a few feathery and slightly glossy leaves adding depth, structure, and a natural woodland feel that echoes the greenery of nearby Barnes Green. The stems of the rose, gypsophila, and foliage are expertly gathered and wrapped in a smooth band of pure white satin ribbon, the fabric folded neatly and finished with a petite, symmetrical bow positioned just beneath the blooms. The ribbon catches the soft, even light with a gentle sheen, suggesting the careful craftsmanship of an experienced florist used to preparing buttonholes for local weddings and celebrations.
