Posted by Sat, May 16, 2026 @ 09:54 AM

KSBADGE_25-02Prom season is here, and at Gillespie Florists we’re bringing the trends straight from your Pinterest boards and TikTok feeds into real-life floral designs. From sleek and modern to bold and dramatic, our Prom Selections 2026 collection was designed to help you complete your look and make a statement the moment you walk into the room.

This year’s lineup is inspired by some of the biggest aesthetics of the season — think soft luxury, gothic glam, sparkling details, and elevated classics. Whether you’re coordinating with your dress, suit, jewelry, or overall vibe, we have flowers that match your moment perfectly.

Your prom flowers should feel just as unforgettable as the night itself. This year, we focused on creating pieces that feel trendy, stylish, and photo-ready while still keeping the timeless elegance prom season is known for.

26PN10-CLOUD-GLOW-272

 

Cloud Glow

For the “Clean Girl” aesthetic lovers, Cloud Glow is effortlessly elegant. This hand-tied bouquet features oversized white hydrangeas that create a soft, cloud-like texture with a luxe, editorial feel. It’s simple in the best way — polished, modern, and designed to complement everything from satin gowns to minimalist silhouettes.

The all-white palette gives this bouquet a timeless look while still feeling incredibly on trend for 2026. If your style leans toward understated luxury, this arrangement was made for you.

 

26PN09-PHANTOM-FLORA-272

 

Phantom Flora

Dark romance is having a major moment this prom season, and Phantom Flora fully embraces the aesthetic. Featuring crisp white roses paired with dramatic black-painted limonium, this bouquet creates the perfect balance between elegance and edge.

It’s bold without being overpowering and makes an incredible statement in photos. Whether your look is inspired by gothic glam, vintage romance, or your personal “villain era,” Phantom Flora brings dramatic energy in the best possible way.

 

26PN11-ARCTIC-SERVE-272

 

Arctic Serve

Boutonnieres deserve just as much attention as bouquets, and Arctic Serve proves that classic can still be cool. Designed with double white roses and accented with shimmering teal glitter leaves, this boutonniere adds just the right amount of icy detail and personality.

It’s clean, modern, and eye-catching without going over the top. Perfect for anyone wanting a polished look with a little extra shine.

 

 

26PN08-GILDED-GLAMOUR-272

 

Gilded Glamour

If your prom look includes sequins, metallic accents, pearls, or gold jewelry, Gilded Glamour is the finishing touch you’ve been searching for. This design combines soft romantic roses with rose-gold mesh detailing and pearl accents for a bouquet that feels red carpet ready.

Elegant and glamorous, this piece was designed to stand out while still feeling timeless. It catches the light beautifully and pairs perfectly with formalwear that leans luxe and sophisticated.

Gillespie Weddings - Unique and stylish boutonniere ideas

Posted by Sat, Mar 19, 2011 @ 03:55 PM

describe the image

Traditionally, wedding boutonnieres for the groom and his entourage are a single flower or some small flower combination that complements the rest of the wedding flowers. Untraditionally, only your imagination limits the options for boutonnieres for your groom and groomsmen---they can be anything.  If flowers aren't your guy's thing, think of some different ways you can create boutonnieres from alternative materials.

Depending on the season or location of your wedding, you can easily substitute the natural look of flower boutonnieres with another representation of nature. You can use mini acorns, feathers, a stick or small bundle of wheat, seashells and leaves to create an alternative boutonniere that fits the theme, location or season of your wedding.

Choose tie pins that coordinate with your wedding theme, or have tie pins monogrammed for the groom and each of his groomsmen. While the guys can wear the pins on their ties, they can just as easily adorn the slit of a tuxedo that is the reserved space for the boutonniere instead. You can also promote a cause that you, your groom or bridal party are especially passionate about by wearing a pin or button that stands for the cause.
