Classic Capitol View at 400 Wedding

Classic Capitol View at 400 Wedding

Wedding portrait with flying veil

Located in what feels like arm’s length to the Capitol sits the aptly named Capitol View at 400. This is not our first wedding at this venue. In the past year and a half, as more of our clients have sought out sites with outdoor options, it has quickly become one of our favorite wedding spots. Last spring, Erin and Ben celebrated their nuptials here, and we could not have been more elated to create a classic Capitol View at 400 wedding for them! In true DC wedding fashion, the day began with classic green and white bouquets and boutonnieres, portraits around the Capitol, and an elegant ceremony at St. Peter’s Church on Capitol Hill.

Following the ceremony, the reception proceeded to Capitol View at 400. It’s most definitely all about view at the venue. In keeping with this, the classic Capitol View at 400 wedding came to life with simple centerpieces in gold pedestal bowls of hydrangea, roses, lisianthus, roses, spray roses, and greenery throughout the reception space. As a finishing touch, an elegant sprig of eucalyptus foliage was placed at each napkin.The head table was the real show-stopper: A long captain’s style table seated the wedding party on one side, with the bridal and bridesmaids’ bouquets placed along the length of the table, each interspersed with a romantic glass-enclosed pillar candles of varying heights. Even the cake was decorated with in classic whites and greens, the perfect finishing touch.

It was an honor to work with Erin and Ben to bring their classic Capitol View wedding vision to life. We wish you many years of happiness together!

Brentsville Hall was transformed with hundreds of candles lining the aisle for Daryn & Kelsey’s wedding. Black draping swagged from the ceiling and the ceremony backdrop providing the perfect moody winter touch! But that’s not all! Candles brought main character energy to the reception - on tables, in glass globes suspended from floating greenery centerpieces, and casting a romantic glow.

All jokes aside, not having a rain plan is a cute sentiment… until the clouds roll in ⛈️ 

As much as we love manifesting sunshine, as we like to say, the best way to put off rain is a rain plan you’re happy with. The thoughtful plan is how you protect the vibe and your sanity. The flowers? They’re actually okay with a few drops of rain. We’ve seen too many gorgeous moments saved by a calm pivot. And best of all, dry guests are happy guests.
