Pallbearers wear a boutonnière as a symbol of respect and honor for the deceased. The flower, often a single bloom, represents their role in carrying the casket and paying tribute during the funeral service. Additionally, the boutonnière serves as a visual sign of mourning and solidarity among those involved in the ceremony.
