Berry-Toned Hotel Monaco DC Wedding

Oh, Leah and Joshua’s wedding was RICH! The berry-toned Hotel Monaco wedding featured incredible, saturated hues of red, fuchsia, navy blue. Swoon!! Leah carried a bouquet of Juliet garden roses, Cafe au Lait dahlia, blush pink mini-calla lilies and light pink ranunculus accented with burgundy dahlia and seeded eucalyptus. Their bridesmaids bouquets amped up the color with roses, dahlia, ranunculus, and callas in saturated berry tones accented with seeded eucalyptus and blue-black viburnum berries.

The ceremony took place at the historic Sixth and I Synagogue. Accenting the chuppah onsite was a garland of seeded eucalyptus foliage accented with wedding flowers, and two posies of stock, dahlia, and roses with peaches, pinks, and burgundies finished with soft greenery.

For the berry-toned Hotel Monaco wedding, guests were greeted to the reception by an elegant gold vase at the escort card table. The vase was topped with a classic, rounded design of antique green hydrangea, light pink stock, burgundy dahlia, roses and spray roses, Cafe au Lait dahlia, and peach Femma. Similar flowers filled a classic gold bowl for the dinner tables, each finished with floating candles in stemmed containers. The garland from the chuppah was repurposed on the sweetheart tables and the posies on the backs of the bride’s and groom’s chairs, finishing the look.

Oh the places we go! Working inside Folger Shakespeare Library is such a full circle moment for me. I once worked in art museums, so being back in a space like this (now with flowers?!) just makes me so happy. Truly honored to be part of this Friday’s gala 💫 , but in the meantime, here’s a throwback to last year’s event!

Time is not a florist’s friend. From the time this ever so perishable product arrives to when we set things up in meager timelines while dodging people - not to mention waiting for others to finish their part before we can start ours… Let’s just say it’s a challenge, but one we meet head on each week with ingenuity. Planning, pre-planning and even more planning. It’s not always sexy but it gets the job done.

Alexandra & Brian’s wedding at River Farm had that early summer, just-gathered feeling that never tries too hard but still feels completely considered. The palette stayed soft. Think pastel wildflowers with a little movement, nothing too tight or overly styled. Everything felt natural to the setting.⁣
⁣
The ceremony unfolded under the big tree with an arch that felt like it had grown there, loose and garden-inspired in shades of pale pink, light blue, cream, and lavender. It set the tone for the entire day.⁣
⁣
For the reception, long tables were filled all the way down with milk glass, blue mason jars, and pieces of depression glass, each one holding a slightly different mix of flowers. It created that full, abundant look that makes a space feel warm and inviting, while still leaving room for everything the evening needed to hold.⁣
Personal, relaxed, and quietly layered in a way that lets the setting - and the people in it - shine.⁣

It’s planning season for the Scout Guide launch party, and we couldn’t be more excited. 💃🏻

Any guesses on what we’ll see this year? 🤔

There is something especially beautiful about bringing soft garden flowers into a space like St. Francis Hall. The historic stone walls have a certain weight to them, and loose, romantic florals create a lovely contrast that keeps the room from feeling too formal.⁣
⁣
For Marina & Kosta’s wedding, the goal was to make the reception feel like a garden had quietly taken over the hall. We designed lush arrangements in peach, cream, and fresh greens that felt natural and abundant on the tables. Against the warm tones of the room and the glow of candlelight, the flowers softened the space and made the entire evening feel relaxed, welcoming, and full of life.⁣
