Last week, we brought you an entire color spectrum of beautiful floral boutonnieres. I like to leave the flowers to the pros, but sometimes boutonnieres can be the perfect DIY element. Boutonnieres, that is, that aren’t floral but rather fabric, paper, feathers or virtually any other material you can imagine! DIY not your style? The pros are pretty good at these non-traditional, awesome accessories too!

I went to a local wedding that made use of pinwheel boutonnieres and larger pinwheel “bouquets”. It was quite different and fun!
These are awesome ideas! I love the purple feather one, and the pinwheel is totally fun! The rustic heart is adorable too!
I’m loving the pale purple feather one. And the bowling boutonniere is too cute! They’re like little snippets of a diorama.
