Groomsmen Boutonnieres

Mona8

So I know this is a small detail, but I can't decide and need opinions from you ladies!- I'm trying to decide what color rose to use for the groomsmen's boutonnieres. The options are lavender or white.

The bridesmaids will be wearing lavender dresses. The bouquets will be a mix of light blue hydrangea with lavender and white roses.

FI's boutonniere will be a white rose with a single stephanotis.

So... Which would you pick?...

I love white flowers at weddings. And I'm not sure that many guys would be thrilled with wearing a lavender flower. My FI flat out refused to wear anything pink or purple LOL.

I think it would be fine for the men to wear lavender flowers, and maybe have your FI wear a white one to stand out.

If you really like things to be matchy matchy then pick the lavender, but if not then go with the white.

Love the lavender for the groomsmen and white for groom

What color ties will the groomsmen be wearing? 
My preference would be the opposite color tie and flower. (purple ties w/ white flowers & vice versa)

I like the lavender so that FI stands out a little, in a subtle way.

I like it when the groomsmen have a different color than the groom.
