The ballroom itself is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the golf course and the Potomac River.

Tips:

Belle Haven Country Club weddings have so many stunning features. The key is to find a way to highlight them. A striking tall design that welcome guests as they enter is a must have here. The guest tables look great with assorted low arrangements, but height and dimension will encourage the eye to travel around the room, taking in the grand windows that line the space. If you are keeping your guest list intimate, opt for long rectangular tables with lots of candles!

The fountain garden at Woodlawn + Pope Leighey House is one of our favorite spots on earth, and cocktail hour here just hits differently. 🤍 Urn arrangements, cocktail table florals, a custom seating area, string lights, an escort card wall... the details are what transform a beautiful space into a full experience. Because details make the difference — always. ✨🌿⁣

A palette pulled straight from a glass of bourbon. 🥃

Sculptural calla lilies, trailing amaranthus, grapes and peaches. Modern, organic, a little decadent, and just a little moody.

Designed for Basil Hayden, and proof that sometimes the most interesting thing you can put in a floral arrangement isn’t a flower.

We loved working with @basilhayden to bring this together.

There’s just something about St. Francis Hall.⁣

Maybe it’s the brick. Maybe it’s the windows. Maybe it’s those twinkle lights that somehow make every wedding feel a little bit magical.⁣

For Erin & Joel`s wedding, we loved the contrast of all that warm architecture with cool blues, crisp whites and lots of greenery. Nothing fighting the room. Nothing trying too hard. Just really pretty flowers in a really wonderful space.⁣
⁣
And honestly, we could design here a hundred times and still get excited walking through those doors.⁣

An outdoor ceremony followed by a beautiful ballroom reception? The St. Regis makes a very persuasive case.⁣
⁣
The Astor Terrace and Astor Ballroom give us two different settings to consider, and I love finding the floral thread between them. A color carried through. A favorite flower appearing again. A shape that feels familiar when guests move inside. You get the excitement of a new space, with flowers that feel like they belong to the same celebration.⁣
⁣
Those connections are some of my favorite parts of wedding design, and for Katie and Doug, I love how they went a step further with incorporating hand painted ceramics form Katie`s homeland. ⁣

OBSESSED was a word we heard many times over the course of this wedding. The color palette was just {chef’s kiss}
