Blush Sulgrave Club Wedding in Washington DC

Lush, classic and romantic were words Kelly and Jim shared to describe what they wanted for their Sulgrave Club wedding. We chose a palette of soft hues – blushes, pale pinks, and classic whites punctuated with soft green foliages. Textured but tailored in style, Kelly’s bridal bouquet was a showstopper. Designed around champagne Sahara roses, and ivory roses and spray roses, and white lisianthus, summer garden touches of Café au Lait dahlia, light pink astilbe, white veronica and pops of a deeper peach spray rose gave a gardeny dimension to the bouquet. The bridesmaids carried complementary bouquets of Vendela and Sahara roses, ivory spray roses, white lisianthus, light pink astilbe, and white veronica accented with seeded eucalyptus foliage, wrapped with blush satin ribbon. Jim’s boutonnière was designed with an ivory Vendela rose accented with artful loops of bear grass. For the remaining boutonnières, we combined champagne Sahara roses with bear grass.

Ceremony and Reception

Following the ceremony at the St. Gabriel’s Church, the guests were treated to a Sulgrave Club wedding designed in classic hues of peach, champagne, pale pink and ivory with touches of green. Adding to the venue’s already stunning reception spaces were the couple’s two unique guest table centerpiece concepts. For half the guest tables, silver candelabras held elevated designs of white hydrangea, peach stock, champagne roses, ivory spray roses, Café au Lait dahlia, white lisianthus and light pink astilbe finished with touches of salal and seeded eucalyptus foliage. Thee remaining tables featured a silver mercury glass bowl with bountiful white hydrangea, peach stock, champagne roses, ivory spray roses, Café auLait dahlia, white lisianthus, light pink astilbe, and white veronica, accented with seeded eucalyptus foliage. For a sweet finishing touch, we crowned Kelly and Jim’s cake with beautiful blooms, and provided a pretty toss bouquet for Kelly to throw.

We do love a candlelit dinner. And when dinner happens to be at the Sulgrave Club in DC, we’re especially enthusiastic!!⁣
⁣
For Gabrielle & John`s winter wedding, tall gold candelabras lined the head table, with white flowers, burgundy ranunculus and evergreens gathered below. We loved how the gold stood out against those green drapes, and how the flowers filled the length of the table beneath all those candles.⁣
⁣
This is why we get excited about designing the head table. There’s room to repeat a beautiful combination, give it some height, and make something you can appreciate from across the room. We’d happily pull up a chair here. 🕯⁣

Where should we put flowers? It`s one of the questions couples ask us most often, and sometimes the answer is surprisingly practical!⁣
⁣
For Trevor and Jermaine`s fall wedding at the Salamander Resort in Middleburg, the celebration took place in the Culinary Garden, a beautiful outdoor space with winding paths, beautiful greenery and little spaces tucked around every corner. A gorgeous setting, but how do guests know where they`re supposed to go?⁣
⁣
Flowers, of course!⁣
⁣
We placed these fabulous fall urn arrangements atop large barrels to help guide guests through the garden. Mounds of autumn hydrangea, dahlias, garden roses and branches of bittersweet brought the most delicious shades of burgundy, rust, orange and gold to the arrangements. They looked right at home among the changing leaves, and made it easy for guests to find their way.⁣
⁣
Who needs directional signs when you can have flowers this pretty?!⁣

Fall foliage with the soft touch of pastel blooms. We could happily spend all of November working with this combination!!

Emma and Andrew’s Decatur House wedding gave us the chance to mix peach and blush roses with branches in copper, burgundy and golden yellow. Starting with that chuppah! We let the foliage reach out beyond the dark wood frame, with flowers tucked all the way down the posts.

Inside the reception, garden roses, dahlias, autumn leaves and touches of fruit filled gold compotes, alongside tables with elevated candlelight and smaller floral arrangements. Soft pinks, burnt orange, gold and plenty of texture. There was so much to love about this November wedding, and we’re especially partial to the lush foliage!

Burgundy, burnt orange, peach and toffee. Quite the color combination for a spring evening! We’d happily revisit this palette now that November is here.⁣
⁣
Because of the volume of tables at this corporate event at Union Station, we didn`t just design tall arrangements, we placed them atop gold Harlow stands in two varying heights, giving the flowers a little up-and-down movement across the East Hall. Antique green hydrangea, roses and magnolia foliage looked right at home against those mustard drapes. And those blue-and-gold floral linens? So much fun to design flowers around!!⁣
⁣
Over in the Presidential Room, generous urn arrangements and a central statement piece dressed the cocktail reception. An evening that gave us plenty of opportunities to go big with flowers, in one spectacular DC setting.⁣

When your bride describes her style as “coastal granny chic,” you KNOW we’re going to have fun with the flowers!!! 💙⁣
⁣
Think gobs of hydrangea, delphinium and garden roses, blue and white Chinoiserie vases, and plenty of candlelight. Classic, relaxed, and just the right amount of coastal granny! Consider us OBSESSED with Alexandria & Kevin`s wedding at the Riggs Hotel!!!⁣
