Organic Elegance for City Tavern Club Wedding

Lauren and Chris’ summer wedding in Georgetown was an inspiring example of organic elegance. Inspired by nature, the City Tavern Club wedding used a palette of green, gold and white, Lauren’s timeless bridal bouquet featured using ivory garden roses, Vendela roses, ivory spray roses, white stock and white lisianthus finished with a mix of dusty miller, silver dollar eucalyptus, parvifolia eucalyptus, and seeded eucalyptus. For Lauren’s bridesmaids, we created a grouping of Vendela roses, ivory spray roses, white stock and white lisianthus finished with a mix of dusty miller, silver dollar, parvifolia and seeded eucalyptus – each a simpler and smaller version of the bridal bouquet. For Chris, the handsome groom, we furnished a boutonniere centered on an ivory rose accented with eucalyptus. The remaining boutonnières incorporated a white lisianthus blossom accented with eucalyptus.

City Tavern Club Ceremony

Lauren and Chris’ breathtaking chuppah for their City Tavern Club wedding epitomized organic elegance. The custom-designed structure was inspired by trees. Four birch bark poles and crosspieces were overlaid with a combination of curly willow and camellia branches. The result reflected nature’s drama. A highlight of the intimate ceremony was Chris serenading his bride.

 

Elegant Wedding Reception

At the couple’s City Tavern Club wedding reception included a mix of designs in the classic ballroom. Guest tables were displayed a gold pedestal bowl, filled with a lush, textured design of white hydrangea, white stock, ivory roses and spray roses, and white lisianthus accented with a mix of seeded eucalyptus, silver dollar, and parvifolia eucalyptus. Lauren, Chris and their wedding party were seated at a gorgeous head table festooned with tall fluted glass vases, topped with a lush and organic design of foliages. A mix of lemon leaf, silver dollar eucalyptus, Italian ruscus, camellia and myrtle foliages were accented with green viburnum for an array of greens. A rich array of glass enclosed pillar candles and elevated floating candles, along with glass vases for the bouquets, finished the tablescape. As a finishing touch for Lauren’s and Chris’ classic white wedding cake, we tucked clusters of white garden roses, white lisianthus, and wedding greens amidst each sweet tier.

Cheers to the newlyweds, and best wishes for many years of love!

Blooming branches – that harbinger of new beginnings, a flower whose very appearance serves as the epitaph to winter. But that sweet symbolism isn’t the only reason we love them! 

Very few botanical elements feature both soft edges AND the jutting architecture of flowering branches. As floral designers, we adore the juxtaposition of soft, demure pastels with their sheer height and commanding presence. There’s just something about that that just screams wedding, don’t you think? 

So don’t be afraid to branch out and get creative. Blooming branches look spectacular in weddings – in everything from ceremony arches to reception decor – and create a big impactful look.

And guess what? We can help. 😜

It’s been a very long time since floral centerpieces were just flowers in a vase. Today’s centerpieces have multiple elements, loads of candles, things that have to be assembled and even built on-site. And yet the presumption persists that the florist is just going to show up with a box that can be left in the corner for someone else to place on the table. 

Putting aside the fact that we take far more pride in our work than that… to say that we value logistics and planning is an understatement!! And logistics are truly our skill set. We can tell you how many man hours a particular installation will take and can design for efficiency. It’s truly our super power.

Most floral design relies on other things being in place. Not useful? “You can get into the room at this time.” Actually useful? “The bar you’re building that cascading piece on will in place no later than X o’clock.” But more than that? Start realizing that event demands are not what they used to be.

I love eavesdropping. 😜

While setting up for the new Georgetown Citibank, we overheard someone say, “This is the moment.” ❤️

And I couldn’t have said it better myself. Because when flowers are doing their job, they don’t just fill a space. They create a moment you can feel.
