Classic Mayflower Hotel Ceremony & Reception

Greg and Dennis embarked on a journey of timeless love with a classic Mayflower Hotel ceremony that epitomized sophistication and charm. The wedding was filled with exquisite detail, from the traditional ceremony to the opulent floral arrangements that adorned this iconic venue.

Classic Mayflower Hotel Setting

The Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC is filled with allure and is the perfect backdrop for a classic wedding ceremony. With timeless architecture, historic architectural details and refined interiors, the Mayflower Hotel provided an enchanting setting that complemented the elegance of Greg and Dennis’ celebration.

Sophisticated Floral Accents

The grooms graced the occasion with pale pink Sweet Eskimo rose boutonnieres, each adorned with delicate touches of eucalyptus. A touch of class was added as the groomswomen carried lush, French hand-tied bouquets featuring white and blush roses, garden roses, mini-calla lilies, astilbe, and white stock, elegantly wrapped with gray satin ribbon.

Dramatic Mayflower Hotel Ceremony

Dramatic floral arrangements flanked the ceremony area on pedestals, creating a scene of grandeur and romance. A pristine white aisle runner, adorned with a simple satin ribbon seal, awaited the entrance of the wedding party. This simple yet classic touch added grace to the ceremony, setting the stage for a procession filled with love and tradition.

Creating Elegance at the Reception

The elegance continued into the reception with arrangements placed on glass cylinder vases. Classic, rounded designs of white hydrangea, stock, and roses adorned half of the dinner tables, while textured designs, incorporating Italian ruscus and silver dollar eucalyptus, graced the others.

Greg and Dennis’ classic Mayflower Hotel ceremony and following reception was a celebration of timeless love and refined elegance. From the iconic setting to the sophisticated floral accents, every detail spoke of a love story steeped in tradition and class.

Industrial spaces have a beauty of their own, but the right floral design can take them from warehouse to urban garden. 🌿✨ 

For Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding, we played with scale—tall magnolia branches to emphasize the height, lush florals to soften the space, and candlelight to add warmth. The result? An urban oasis that felt both grand and intimate.

1️⃣Go Big with Greenery – Tall magnolia branches brought height and movement to Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding

2️⃣ Mix Textures – Lush, low floral arrangements softened the industrial edges while keeping the space dynamic

3️⃣ Layer Candlelight – Warm glows + metal details = a romantic urban oasis

4️⃣ Frame Key Spaces – A floral garland on the head table grounded the design and added intimacy. Trees flanking the table took it to the next level 

5️⃣ Contrast is Key – Pairing the raw, industrial elements with soft florals and organic details created the perfect balance

Not all green and white floral palettes are created equal. This one here will NEVER go out of style and is truly as timeless as they come! Magnolia, eucalyptus, rosemary, and delicate touches of white… Add velvet linens and gold touches, and we’re smitten... 😍
