Classic Art Gallery Wedding

Classic Art Gallery Wedding

Roseann and Mike had a beautiful, classic art gallery wedding at the Corcoran Gallery of Art this past March. The Corcoran is already a stunning building, originally designed by James Renwick to house a stellar collection of art and sculpture. And this particular day did not disappoint either!  March has truly been “in like a lion” – but this was one of those rare lamb-like days we were treated to.

One of the things I vividly remember when meeting Rosann to discuss her wedding flowers was that she was certain she wanted roses for her bouquet – because she never gets them.  I could tell she was someone who was not unfamiliar with flowers, but she could still see that roses were something special.  Tulips, on the other hand, felt like something more typical. And so roses she had!

Both ceremony and reception took place at the museum.  The ceremony decor was simple but elegant – two lush, classic designs of hydrangea, lilac and roses on gold glass vases which flanked the couple on  pedestals.

The reception featured long tables dressed in a gold brocade linen.  A rich display of white flowers – roses, hydrangea, stock, lilac, fringe and straight-edged tulips, and sweet pea – were housed in glass vases of varying heights.  Interspersed with pillar candles, the flowers created a monochromatic “runner” extending down the length of the tables.

It’s Bike to Work Day — and while we usually pedal toward petals, we couldn’t resist sharing this creative twist from Elle & Bryan, one of our couples who wheeled their love of cycling straight into the ceremony. 🚲✨ 

Elle & Bryan’s wedding at Dumbarton House was full of charm, personal touches, and one especially fun nod to their love of cycling. Bicycle wheels became sculptural backdrops, proving that when it comes to personal touches, there’s no such thing as too niche.

Designing florals around unexpected objects? That’s our lane. And yes — it was all uphill in the best possible way.

A night of mystery and masquerade — and the perfect way to fête the 10th anniversary of The Scout Guide Alexandria and the launch of Vol. 10! ✨ 

We loved adding our signature touch of floral drama to this year’s launch party at the Hotel Heron. From a moody and dramatic entrance piece to a flower-filled car, sculptural arrangements on cocktail tables and elevated bar arrangements casting feathered shadows and moody textures, this event let us play in a world of whimsy and wonder.

We’re proud to be part of a guide that champions small businesses and celebrates creativity in our community. Supporting local means investing in the makers, doers, and dreamers who make Alexandria vibrant — and The Scout Guide does just that, beautifully. Cheers to Vol. 10! Special thanks to Sarah and Claire for always being so supportive and encouraging.
