Pallbearers wear boutonnieres as a symbol of respect and remembrance for the deceased. The boutonniere, typically a small flower or floral arrangement worn on the lapel, adds a touch of dignity to the pallbearers' attire during the funeral service. It also signifies their role in honoring the person who has passed away, highlighting the solemnity of the occasion. Additionally, it can serve as a visual connection to the deceased's personality or preferences, particularly if the flower has special significance.
