Does Royal Caribbean have an onboard florist where I can buy a

It isn't a prom or a wedding. I would skip the boutonniere.

I don't believe so. You may wish to arrange for one at the last stop
before the formal night and pick them up at the florist (alternatively
ask InterFlora to deliver it to the boat). If you're in the top cabins
you may be able to arrange the concierge to get one for you.

At least on the Legend last month, they had someone selling roses most
of the trip. Did not look at the price. Also, you can order ahead of
time some kinds of flower arrangements to be delivered to the state
room. Go to the website and search on flowers.

Not a full service Florist but they do have a cart where you can buy
flowers. They are usually located outside the main dining room near the
stairs or elevator bank every night of the cruise.

They do have a florist on the Voyager class ships. I don't recall if
the older ships have a florist.

You're right. For a person traveling alone, a boutonniere on a
cruise is pretentious. Thank you for pointing this out to me.

I disagree. I fail to see why it would be pretentious for a single man.
If you want to wear one, it shouldn't be reserved for men who are part
of a couple. For all onlookers, you could be having an assignation later
on, you with the white rose and she with a single black dahlia at her
throat. Very noirish.

BTW, check out your local crafts shop. I saw some boutonnière quality
silk flowers that will do quite nicely. To anyone close enough to
dance with you they look like the real thing. The very cool part is
they won't wilt as the evening progresses. Just a drop of quality
perfume of an appropriate scent will complete the illusion.

Huh... I'll take the opposite view that if you want to wear a boutonniere,
why not? What others think isn't important... how you feel is. If it feels
good, do it!

Another suggestion is buy yourself a butonniere for formal night and
also a single rose for each of the ladies at your table. This is a
charming gallant gesture that will be appreciated and there is nothing
wrong with you wanting to accent your appearance. Personally I think it
adds a little class to the cruise experience.
