Pinterest is known to be a treasure trove of DIY wedding ideas, but often it’s hard to sort through all the pictures and find what’s best for your wedding. We found five boutonniere ideas that will inspire you to be creative and innovative with this wardrobe addition for your wedding.

This picture-based bout is a great tribute to family members whether they’re at the wedding or deceased. It has a classy, aged look that can be built upon or made with other materials but still have the same effect.

This sweet succulent option is perfect for those who have a background in competition. The tutorial for this trophy bout is on the Postcards and Pretties blog.

Using alternative materials for the flowers in a boutonniere or a corsage, like in this beautiful handmade bout, is actually pretty common. These flowers are hand-carved from wood but they look like fabric against the birch branches. The intricate bout can be found on Etsy for $7.50.

Barn weddings are all the rage in some circles, and these burlap boutonnieres would fit in perfectly. Though they look fancy, the DIY tutorial is simple and doesn’t require any intense crafting supplies. Another thing that is nice is that the tutorial shows how to make more than one, which makes them great for an entire wedding party.

Add a little fun to the wedding party with the pinwheel boutonnieres. Choose any colored paper to fit your wedding’s color scheme, and they can be made in three steps.
