Forest-Inspired Woodend Wedding

Forest-Inspired Woodend Wedding

A soothing palette of forest greens served as the grounding backdrop of Mitch and Patrick’s nuptials. Their forest-inspired Woodend wedding embraced the best of autumn with rich reds, yellows and oranges with maidenhair fern. White mini-calla lilies served as the grooms’ boutonnieres, simple and masculine in style. Each of the female attendants carried simple bouquets of red, yellow and mango mini-calla lilies, the stems wrapped in a natural white muslin for a rustic touch.

The forest-inspired Woodend ceremony, which took place on a truly picturesque September day in the grove, was simply decorated. Posies of orange and yellow callas, dahlia, roses and mokara orchids accented with hypericum berries marked every row on the aisle, finished with a muslin ribbon. The escort card table was graced with a dramatic tablescape consisting of several pieces of interwoven manzanita branch set on pieces of moss and accented with maidenhair fern, yellow cymbidium orchid blossoms, and hanging Spanish moss nested and secured along the branches.

Continuing with the forest-Inspired Woodend wedding theme, guest tables conveyed an informal elegance. A mix of glass cylinder vases holding terrarium-style centerpieces of maidenhair fern accompanied by wood boxes. The boxes held textured designs of orange and yellow roses, dahlia, mokara orchids, and mini-calla lilies accented with burgundy dahlia, red hypericum berries and maidenhair fern.

Some weddings are sweet.

This one? Smart, stylish, and just a little unexpected.

At Eaton DC, where there’s a record player in the lobby and intention in every detail, we brought florals that nodded to tradition. White and blush, gold compotes, lush greenery - and then we slipped in a few surprises (hello, orchids). From a ceremony full of movement to tall reception designs that played with height and shape, this wedding proved modern love doesn’t have to be minimal.

No, ma’am. That’s not how any of this works… 

💐✨ Wedding flower myths? We’ve heard them all. ✨

“You can just reuse the _____ flowers.”
“Faux flowers look the same.”
“Greenery is cheap, right?”

We get it. Planning a wedding comes with a lot of well-meaning advice. But when it comes to flowers, there’s a big difference between a cost-saving hack and a costly mistake.

At Petal’s Edge, we design with intention, experience, and artistry. We’re not here to upsell. We’re here to guide you through what works, what doesn’t, and what’s actually worth it. Because your flowers should feel just as thoughtful as the rest of your wedding. 🌿💐
Forget “Something Borrowed’. Seriously - have you ever seen such a stunning and tasteful incorporation of blue tones in a wedding? We brought a playful twist on “Something Blue’ into Wendy & Erik’s wedding day at @willard_intercontinentaldc With touches of blue Chinoiserie vases, not to mention other blue touches like ribbons and bridesmaid dresses, the blush and ivory floral palette of all blended perfectly together! Cheers to a beautiful day as magnificent as the happy couple!
