Classic Mount Vernon Inn Wedding

Classic Mount Vernon Inn Wedding

Sweet southern charm and elegance is how we would describe Erin and Connor’s early May wedding this past spring. The classic Mount Vernon Inn wedding featured a color scheme of bright corals, light pinks, and whites with lush, leafy green accents, the style radiated a classic and timeless sensibility. Erin carried a gorgeous bouquet of peonies in white, light pink and coral accented with roses and ranunculus in the same shades and finished with touches of camellia foliage.  Conor’s boutonniere was designed using a white ranunculus blossom and camellia.

Before the ceremony, the wedding party toured Old Town, taking photos amidst the creeping greenery, cobblestone streets, and brick alleyways. The bridesmaids carried bouquets similar to Erin’s, using coral peonies, ivory roses, pale coral roses, and light pink ranunculus accented with camellia.

A silver urn filled with flowers in whites, peaches, pinks and corals was centered on the escort card table – epitomizing the style for this classic Mount Vernon Inn wedding. The mix of hydrangea, stock, roses, spray roses, tulips, and anemone created romantic and vintage textures in the classic container. The reception tables were mixed between rounds and long communal dining table, with different styles of containers for each. Complementing the vintage style of the wedding, flowers filled an eclectic mix of silver, mercury glass, depression glass and milk glass were used to hold a festive mix of spring flowers. Hydrangea, stock, roses, ranunculus, tulips, anemone and peonies accented with the rich green of camellia leaves filled the mix of containers, and brought a bright spot of spring to the traditional, colonial decor of the site.

Anything better than classic vibes? ✨ 

My favorite moment? Transferring the aisle garland studded with white blooms to the urn alcove for a dramatic moment in the tent.

A palette pulled straight from a glass of bourbon. 🥃

Sculptural calla lilies, trailing amaranthus, grapes and peaches. Modern, organic, a little decadent, and just a little moody.

Designed for Basil Hayden, and proof that sometimes the most interesting thing you can put in a floral arrangement isn’t a flower.

We loved working with @basilhayden to bring this together.
