An Intimate Alexandria Elopement

An Intimate Alexandria Elopement

All smiles after Alexandria elopement

When Daniela and Mark’s initial wedding plans were disrupted due to COVID-19 restrictions, like many couples, they rescheduled for a later date. But honoring their initial wedding date, they decided to get married anyway! Their Alexandria elopement took place at the Basilica of Saint Mary here in Old Town this past May. While the crowd was smaller, their nearest and dearest were in attendance for the intimate wedding. After being effectively closed for a few months, we were more than excited and ready to assist with flowers for the nuptials!

Rather than duplicate the initial floral scheme, Daniella chose instead a spring palette of romantic pastels. The classic cascade bouquet was designed using a blend of pale beige Sandy, mauve pink Faith, and pale lavender Luminous roses, ivory majolica spray roses, and finished with ruscus, eucalyptus and wispy asparagus fern foliage. Not to be forgotten, we designed a matching boutonniere for Mark.

We offer our heartfelt congratulations on your Alexandria elopement, and can’t wait for the big celebration!

Our story is rooted in horticulture, art, and a genuine love of design. Over the years, the scale of our weddings has grown, but our philosophy remains the same: florals should create mood, evoke emotion, and transform a space into something unforgettable. 🌸

That devotion carries through every detail, from climbing ladders to lighting candles to suspending blooms overhead. For Emily and Will’s wedding at Potomac View Terrace, that meant classic pink and white garden flowers, golden terrariums glowing with candlelight, and a canopy of suspended blooms with glass globes above the head table. Romantic, timeless, and a reflection of why we do what we do. ✨ 

As we begin a new season, we cannot wait to bring more love stories to life. If you are planning your wedding, now is the time to start dreaming with us. 💐
