Candlelit Wedding at Women in the Arts

Candlelit Wedding at Women in the Arts

This past January we were delighted to be a part of Christine and Michael’s romantic wedding at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. The candlelit wedding Women in the Arts museum featured candles as the item of the night – the bridesmaids carried pillar candles (in glass vases) instead of bouquets that they placed on an altar table after they processed down the aisle, and tables of candles were placed along the back rows. The candles at the back of the aisle also doubled as table centerpieces, keeping the glow alive for the rich, warm reception! Our staff stayed through the ceremony so that we could help for the transition, and we all agreed that  it was one of the most personal and touching ceremonies we had ever had the privilege to witness. The bride and groom had the officiant tell their love story, which was both funny and sweet – not a dry eye was in the house when it was over! Thank you to Christine and Michael for letting us be a part of your joyous candlelit wedding at Women in the Arts museum celebration.

From timeless to joyful. 🤍🍋

Alessandra and David began their wedding day in the Crystal Room at the Willard beneath our new gold chuppah, where an all white floral design let the beauty of the space and the significance of the ceremony take center stage.

Then the celebration took a turn. Guests were greeted by three sculptural lemon displays at the escort table before entering the Willard Room, where lush color blocked floral centerpieces alternated with tables filled with candlelight. Fresh lemons tucked among the candles added the perfect finishing touch, bringing warmth, color, and a playful nod to the couple’s vision.

Some weddings tell one story. This one unfolded beautifully in two acts. ✨

The only blues here are dresses, flowers and vases! Alexandra & Kevin’s wedding was truly magical. From the church ceremony in Old Town Alexandria to the swanky city rooftop reception. And boy did this group dance! 💃🏻 🕺
