BUTTONHOLES
A single, meticulously crafted wedding boutonniere lies against a backdrop of pale beige, subtly woven fabric, its soft texture echoing the quiet calm of an early morning stroll through St Luke's gardens before the guests arrive. At the centre, two lisianthus flowers unfurl their white, rose-like petals, each edge brushed with a rich, velvety purple that deepens toward the frill, creating a striking yet refined contrast. Around them, delicate clusters of tiny white blooms, reminiscent of baby's breath, add lightness and the suggestion of a fine floral mist. Rising from the side of the design is a slender line of muscari, or grape hyacinth, with minute bell-shaped florets stacked closely in deep violet tones, bringing a textured column of colour that feels both modern and timeless. Wisps of feathery green foliage splay out from beneath the blooms, their soft, fernlike fronds giving the arrangement a gentle movement, as though a breeze from nearby City Road had just passed through. Nestled among the greens, two pale green buds remain tightly closed, hinting at the unfolding of the wedding day itself. The stems are cleanly trimmed, brought together, and wrapped in a smooth band of white satin ribbon, finished with a precise little bow that makes the piece clearly ready to be pinned to a lapel or jacket front. The overall mood is serene, personal, and quietly romantic, the sort of buttonhole a thoughtful partner might choose from a neighbourhood florist, wanting their flowers to whisper of love and promise rather than shout for attention as they walk through St Luke's streets toward the ceremony.
LILIUM & LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A single, carefully composed boutonniere lies on a pale beige, woven linen surface, the fabric's subtle cross-hatch texture giving the scene an understated, almost Scandi calm that lets the flowers speak. At the heart of the piece, soft pink, many-petalled blooms-like tiny ruffled stocks or garden blossoms-form a snug cluster, each blossom no larger than a thumbprint yet full of intricate detail. The petals have a gentle gradient, fading from a more saturated pink at the centre to a whisper-light blush at the edges, as if kissed by early morning light over St Luke's. Threaded through this centre are generous tufts of pure white baby's breath, their minuscule flowers forming a lacy veil that makes the arrangement feel airy and romantic rather than dense. Small flecks of lavender and deep purple florets appear here and there, adding a cool, shadowy depth that plays beautifully against the pink and white. Along one side stretch several slim buds in creamy white with a hint of pale green, likely closed freesia or similar, their smooth forms suggesting fragrance still to come. Encircling everything are vibrant green leaves that curve protectively around the blooms, paired with fine, wispy strands of feathery greenery that spill gently outward, giving a natural, slightly unstructured edge. The stems are gathered neatly and wrapped in a striking fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a sharply defined bow whose glossy loops and short tails catch the light. The overall impression is one of quiet celebration and careful craftsmanship, the sort of buttonhole a local at Florist St Luke's might choose for a City of London registry office wedding, a prom at a nearby school, or a graduation dinner in a favourite neighbourhood restaurant.
LISIANTHUS & ANEMONE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single peach rose boutonniere is laid out thoughtfully across a pale beige, linen-textured cloth, the fabric's gentle woven pattern adding a calm, neutral canvas that lets every petal and leaf stand out in quiet detail. The rose itself is the obvious focal point: a soft, pastel peach bloom with petals that spiral from a deeper, warm apricot heart into lighter, creamy edges, like the soft glow of evening light over the rooftops of St Luke's. Around its upper edge, airy clusters of white baby's breath (gypsophila) form a delicate halo, each tiny flower dotting the composition with brightness, echoing confetti floating through the air outside a local registry office or church near Old Street. Fine, linear strands of fresh green foliage peek out behind the rose and gypsophila, giving movement and a slightly wild, natural feel, while a pair of broader, darker green leaves are artfully curved around the base, cradling the stems and adding depth. Those stems are tightly bound together with a smooth peach satin ribbon, wrapped with the kind of precision a seasoned florist at Florist St Luke's would bring to wedding work, then finished in a modest, elegant knot that sits neatly against the fabric background. The light is soft and even, without harsh shadows, revealing the velvety texture of the rose petals, the crispness of the baby's breath, and the subtle sheen of the ribbon. This boutonniere feels tailored for a groom or groomsman arriving from nearby Clerkenwell or Farringdon, the design understated yet full of sentiment, perfect for proms, small civil ceremonies, or intimate celebrations where every detail is chosen with care.
ORANGE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant boutonniere is displayed on a pale beige, linen-like fabric with a visible, slightly coarse weave, its natural texture framing the floral design with understated charm. At the heart of the arrangement rests a pristine white phalaenopsis orchid, its large, gently curved petals forming a smooth, sculptural cup of light. The centre of the orchid glows with soft yellow shading into delicate reddish-orange speckles, a small, intricate world of colour set within the calm white bloom. Around it, a collar of tiny, snow-white baby's breath and petite bell-shaped florets, reminiscent of lily of the valley, adds airiness and a hint of old-fashioned romance. Behind the main flower, layers of glossy green foliage create a backdrop of rich, verdant tones, like a miniature garden you might stumble upon in one of St Luke's quiet side streets or pocket parks. On the left, slender, bead-like green stems offer fine texture, while a broader, deep green leaf grounds the composition with a sense of balance. The stems are carefully bound on the right with a bold red satin ribbon, wrapped smoothly and deliberately, then tied into a tidy knot or tiny bow that introduces a confident splash of colour. The red ribbon, set against the cream fabric and fresh greens, evokes celebration and warmth without overwhelming the delicate orchid. The overall impression is refined and contemporary, yet rooted in classic wedding style-an accessory you could imagine being pinned to a lapel for a ceremony in St Luke's, ready to accompany heartfelt vows and photographs that will be treasured for years.
ORCHID & CHRYSANTHEMUMS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant boutonniere lies centred on a pale oatmeal-coloured woven fabric, its gentle texture recalling natural linen laid out on a dressing table in a St Luke's mews house before a wedding. The focal point is a flawless white Phalaenopsis orchid bloom, its broad, velvety petals gracefully unfurled and curving outward in a calm, symmetrical arc. At its centre, a hint of creamy yellow and soft orange lights up the orchid's throat, adding warmth and a subtle depth that draws the eye. Surrounding this main flower are clusters of baby's breath, each tiny white blossom forming a cloudlike ring that softens the design and introduces a sense of airiness and movement. Tucked just beneath the orchid, a compact cluster of glossy, rounded red berries brings a vibrant flash of colour, almost jewel-like against the white and green, while a few lighter green buds lend a freshly picked, early-morning feel. Various green leaves, some broad and pointed, others slender and elongated, weave through the arrangement, their rich tones grounding the design and evoking local gardens and green corners around St Luke's. The stems of the flowers and foliage are gathered tightly and wrapped in a rich red satin ribbon, tied into a tidy, modest knot with short tails that lie neatly against the fabric. This careful finishing touch signals that the piece is ready to be pinned to a lapel or dress for a wedding, prom, or black-tie celebration, the kind Florist St Luke's often prepares for couples getting married across nearby city venues, bringing a touch of natural artistry and heartfelt detail to the wearer's ensemble.
ORCHID & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
An elegant pink rose boutonniere lies carefully arranged on a pale beige, woven fabric, the sort of natural linen you might find on a rustic wedding table in a converted St Luke's warehouse venue. The camera catches it from slightly above, allowing the single, semi-open rose to command attention at the centre of the frame. Its petals form a layered spiral, beginning with a soft, powdery blush at the heart and gradually intensifying to a warmer, more saturated pink at the edges, where they curl outward with gentle confidence. Around the base of the bloom, clusters of white baby's breath form light, cloud-like tufts, each tiny star-shaped flower adding texture and a sense of graceful nostalgia, reminiscent of classic bridal flowers often chosen for ceremonies around Old Street or Clerkenwell. Fine, wispy threads of bright green foliage emerge from behind the rose, like delicate grasses catching a breeze in a city garden, subtly lengthening the silhouette and giving the arrangement an airy, romantic profile. A broader, darker green leaf is neatly folded and wrapped around the base, giving both structural support and a polished, tailored look, much like a well-fitted suit. The stems are bound smoothly with a satin ribbon in soft lavender-pink tones, tied off in a neat knot that keeps everything secure while echoing the rose's gentle colouring. The lighting is mellow and diffuse, creating soft shadows along the textured cloth and highlighting the boutonniere's craftsmanship. This intimate, detailed image perfectly evokes the kind of refined lapel flower chosen for weddings, proms, or civil ceremonies across St Luke's and the surrounding EC1 neighbourhoods.
PURPLE ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single, striking fuchsia rose is the undisputed star of this elegant boutonniere, resting on a pale beige, slightly nubbly fabric that looks like finely woven linen. The rose's petals are richly coloured and velvety, curling inward at the centre with just enough openness to suggest it has been chosen at the peak of freshness. Cradling the bloom, clusters of white baby's breath create little pockets of softness, the tiny blossoms forming a lace-like halo that tempers the vivid pink with a sense of calm and purity. Between the white flowers, polished red hypericum berries nestle close, their rounded forms catching the light and echoing the celebratory mood of a wedding morning on a quiet St Luke's side street or a smart dinner near Old Street. Threading through the arrangement, slender, ferny sprigs of greenery stretch gently outward, while broader, deeper green leaves are folded and curled with intention, adding shape, depth, and a hint of formality. The stems are bound together with a smooth satin ribbon in a rich red tone, wrapped tightly and secured into a neat, understated bow that lies flush against the background, suggesting comfort when worn on a jacket lapel. Soft, even lighting reveals every texture: the rose's plush petals, the papery baby's breath, the glossy berries, and the sheen of the ribbon. The overall impression is of a carefully considered floral accent, perhaps crafted by an experienced St Luke's florist for a groom, groomsman, or prom guest, ready to be pinned on just as the first guests begin to arrive and the day's emotions start to unfold.
RED ROSE & HYPERICUM GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
Set against a calm, oatmeal-beige fabric that resembles finely woven linen, a single-stem boutonnière becomes the star of the image, its colours and textures brought to life under clean, natural light. The focal point is a tightly furled rosebud in a vivid fuchsia to deep crimson-red shade, its velvety petals wrapped closely together so that only the outer curves hint at the bloom it will one day become. Around this central rose dance tiny white baby's breath flowers, their delicate, cloud-like clusters creating a soft halo that lightens the composition and emphasises the romance of the piece. Fresh green foliage, both feathery and more substantial, fans out gracefully from behind the flower head; slender, grass-like fronds and airy, fern-like sprigs stretch outward, while a few darker, broader leaves provide structure and depth, just as a skilled florist in St Luke's might arrange a groom's buttonhole before a ceremony near the local parish church. The stems are gathered tightly at the base and bound with a smooth, red satin ribbon, its surface catching the light in a subtle sheen that echoes the richness of the rose. The ribbon is wrapped with precision, creating a secure, refined finish that suggests expert craftsmanship rather than anything mass-produced. The overall effect is intimate and elegant, as though this boutonnière is waiting to be pinned onto a suit lapel for a wedding, prom, or Valentine's celebration. One can almost sense the faint, fresh scent of rose and foliage, and imagine it being hand-delivered across the St Luke's area from a nearby floral studio, ready to mark a cherished, personal moment.
RED ROSE GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
On a softly woven, creamy-beige fabric reminiscent of the elegant textiles offered in boutiques around St Luke's, a meticulously fashioned floral boutonniere lies diagonally, its artistry whispering of love and attention to detail. Centre stage is a blushing pink rosebud, petals spiraling tightly and kissed with deeper pink at its heart-its freshness suggesting a new romance or a hopeful morning in a neighbourhood garden. Standing proudly alongside, a luminous peach-pink Alstroemeria, its open face revealing flecks of maroon and hints of gold, draws the eye to the boutonniere's intricate interior. Shimmering tufts of baby's breath add a veil of softness and innocence, while miniature, cushion-shaped green mums offer a rich textural counterpoint, much like the lively green spaces of St Luke's in spring. Slender blades and feathery fronds crisscross with gracefully arched, darker leaves-some folded, some fanned-providing both backbone and a whisper of the natural world. The bundled stems are cocooned by a single deep green leaf, secured with a bold fuchsia ribbon tied in a diminutive bow, the pink satin catching threads of daylight streaming through a cafe window on Chelsea Road. This boutonniere, ideal for life's most cherished ceremonies-be it a wedding or a prom in the St Luke's community-exudes sophistication, craftsmanship, and a subtle fragrance that mingles rose and fresh foliage. Crafted with heart by local hands, it tells a story of celebration and belonging in St Luke's.
ROSE & ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£99.00
An elegant boutonniere, designed with the same care a local St Luke's florist might give to a wedding party gathered near the church, rests on a pale beige, linen-like fabric that forms a calm and understated stage. The arrangement centres around a single white alstroemeria blossom, its petals silky yet slightly papery, opened just enough to reveal the fine reddish-brown streaks at the base and the delicate stamens clustered within. This Peruvian lily feels both refined and inviting, like a whispered promise of celebration. To its left, a distinctive cone of vibrant green buds, tightly layered and slightly tapering, adds a fresh, modern texture, the glossy surfaces catching the light and giving a sense of new beginnings. Sprinkled throughout are weightless sprigs of white baby's breath, each tiny floret perched on slender stems that seem to hover around the main bloom, softening edges and adding a misty, romantic haze. Supporting the flowers is a foundation of broader dark green leaves, their smooth surfaces and pointed tips forming a steady frame, while finer, filament-like strands of greenery weave through, introducing movement akin to a gentle breeze along nearby city gardens. The composition is gathered and secured at the right with a neatly tied bow of bright pink satin ribbon, its sheen adding a joyful splash of colour and a subtly playful note that suits proms, engagements, or registry office weddings. Even lighting bathes the piece, emphasising fresh petals, crisp foliage, and the skilled craftsmanship that turns a few stems into a small but meaningful accent ready for same-day wear across the St Luke's area.
WHITE ALSTROEMERIA GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A delicately crafted boutonnière is captured resting at a gentle diagonal on a warm, oatmeal-coloured fabric that looks like natural linen, the kind you might see in a chic St Luke's loft overlooking the local gardens. The focal point is a pristine white lisianthus flower, fully open, its many ruffled petals forming a soft, romantic swirl that suggests both refinement and ease. Just to the lower left, two tapered lisianthus buds in pale green and cream lean close to the main bloom, their closed forms hinting at the promise of blossoms yet to unfold-an apt symbol for a wedding held near St Luke's or along nearby Old Street. Around them, delicate tufts of white baby's breath are threaded through the design, their tiny blossoms like a mist of light, lending airiness and gentle volume without overwhelming the central flower. Fine, dark green blades of grass-like foliage stretch out towards the lower left corner, creating a sense of motion and contrast against the neutral background. A slightly broader, richer green leaf sits discreetly behind the lisianthus, framing its white petals and deepening the colour palette. The stems are snugly wrapped at the base with a bright fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a small, confident bow, its glossy texture catching the light and adding a playful accent of colour. The overall effect, illuminated by soft, even lighting, is quietly luxurious-a fresh, handcrafted floral accent that could be prepared by a local St Luke's florist for same-day delivery to a groom, best man, or stylish guest wanting a touch of natural elegance.
WHITE LISIANTHUS GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£80.00
A single white orchid boutonniere rests gracefully on a pale beige, linen-textured fabric, the horizontal composition creating a sense of calm balance and intentional design. At the heart of the piece sits a flawless Phalaenopsis orchid bloom, its wide, porcelain-like petals pure white and gently cupped, drawing the eye toward a detailed centre tinged with soft yellow and a whisper of blush pink. Encircling the base of the orchid, delicate tufts of white baby's breath cluster together like tiny clouds, lending a light, airy fullness that softens the overall silhouette. A few slender, glossy green leaves slip out from beneath the flowers, their clean lines and vivid colour grounding the composition with a touch of fresh foliage. Off to one side, several lime-green orchid buds remain tightly closed, their smooth surfaces and elongated shape hinting at future blossoms and the quiet promise of new beginnings. The stems of the flowers and greenery are carefully wrapped in a bright fuchsia satin ribbon, tied into a neat, elegant bow, its luminous sheen catching the soft light and adding a celebratory accent of vivid pink. Gentle, even lighting reveals every texture-from the orchid's almost velvety petals to the subtle weave of the background fabric-without harsh shadow. The boutonniere feels intimate and poised, ideal for a groom walking through St Luke's on the way to a nearby ceremony, or for a prom date meeting along City Road, offering a refined floral touch that speaks of care, craftsmanship, and understated romance shaped by an experienced local florist.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BOUTONNIERE
£85.00
A refined white orchid boutonniere lies gently on a pale beige, woven textile that looks like natural linen, its subtle threads and fibres providing a calm, earthy backdrop. At the heart of the design, a single Phalaenopsis orchid bloom opens with serene confidence, its smooth, slightly glossy petals a pure, creamy white that curves outwards in graceful symmetry. In the centre, soft touches of yellow in the throat add a hint of warmth, as though the flower is lit from within. Surrounding the orchid, airy tufts of white baby's breath form a loose ring of tiny blossoms, each minuscule floret contributing to an overall impression of lightness and delicacy, like a fine mist or soft cloud. Interlaced among these are slender threads of fresh green foliage, possibly a delicate fern or similar fine-textured leaf, arching out just enough to frame the central bloom with natural movement. The stems of the orchid, baby's breath, and foliage are gathered tightly and wrapped in a smooth band of white satin ribbon, which is tied into a small, simple bow that sits neatly where the stems meet the flowers, ready for pinning to a jacket at a St Luke's registry office or nearby city venue. The lighting is soft and even, emphasizing the contrast between the warm neutral background and the cool whites and greens of the flowers without any distraction. The overall effect is one of quiet elegance and modern minimalism, the sort of carefully crafted buttonhole a local St Luke's florist might create for a groom who wants a clean, sophisticated look that still feels personal and heartfelt.
WHITE ORCHID GROOM BUTTONHOLE
£85.00
A classic white rose boutonniere is presented on a pale, linen-like fabric, placed at a slight diagonal so that it appears almost as if it has just been set down on a dressing table before a ceremony in the St Luke's area. At the centre, a single creamy white rosebud takes pride of place, its petals smooth, tightly layered, and gently curved inward, with just a hint of green at the base where the sepals clasp the stem. Around it, tiny filaments of baby's breath spread like a mist, their miniature white blooms forming a soft, clouded border that contrasts with the rose's more structured form. Several slim, deep green leaves and a few feathery sprigs of foliage fan out behind the flower head, offering a rich green frame that feels both polished and natural, reminiscent of the understated greenery you might see in the small gardens and hidden courtyards tucked around St Luke's. The stems of the rose and filler flowers are drawn neatly together and bound in a smooth white satin ribbon, wrapped tightly to create a sleek handle before being finished with a small, precise bow tied just below the head of the bloom. The ribbon's faint sheen catches the soft, diffused light that washes across the scene, highlighting the gentle folds of the petals and the fine weave of the fabric underneath. This boutonniere feels elegant yet unpretentious, ideal for a groom, best man, or guest attending a wedding or formal event nearby, a simple token of affection and new beginnings crafted with obvious care and attention to detail.
