Colorful DC War Memorial Wedding

Colorful DC War Memorial Wedding

It’s been the year of best laid plans, hasn’t it? Danyel and Jeff had initially planned their wedding to take place at the Josephine Butler Parks Center, but COVID put a dent in both their wedding AND life plans! Circumstances forced a move to another city, and so to make the best of things, they got married in their beloved DC before making their move. While far from plan A, their colorful DC War Memorial wedding was unique and memorable.

Danyel and Jeff’s wedding was one for the books, in my opinion, with some of the most perfect florals. Their vibrant color palette was filled with bright pinks, bold purples and yellows. Danyel’s bouquet was absolutely breathtaking! We designed the bouquet using purple and hot pink vanda orchids, hot pink garden roses, purple lisianthus, and yellow snapdragons with a touch of ivory spray roses and finished with Israeli and Italian ruscus foliage. Her bouquet was perfectly complemented with a delicate hair comb. Jeff’s boutonniere featured ivory spray roses. The flower gods truly sent us the most beautiful flowers for their colorful DC War Memorial wedding.

Located on the Mall, the DC War Memorial commemorates the citizens of the District of Columbia who served in World War I. The intimate domed structure was the site of Danyel and Jeff’s colorful summer nuptials. Against a backdrop of classic urn arrangements on graduated pedestals, they recited their vows in front of their nearest and dearest. Did you know that in DC couples can officiate their own ceremony? That’s exactly what Danyel and Jeff did.

No wedding is completely without cake! To celebrate following their vows, a delightful bar cart was set up with cake and champagne. A colorful arrangement was placed on the lower tier. Danyel and Jeff – we loved making lemonade out of lemons and creating a beautiful & fun wedding! Thanks for including us in your most special day.

Scenes from holiday pasts and present. While December tends to be a low volume time for weddings, we love the range of things we have gotten to do, from inviting the community into our studio for wreath workshops to helping businesses and hotels decorate with garland, trees and more for the holidays. Do you have a favorite way to decorate?

We will be closing soon for a much needed holiday break. See you in the new year!

MOODY ROMANCE ✨ Daryn & Kelsey’s wedding last weekend was the definition of moody romance. A room glowing in candlelight, black linens setting the stage for elevated greenery hedges kissed 💋 with baby’s breath and dreamy hanging glass globes cradling flickering votives. Black and deep plum tapers paired with glass chimneys added a touch of drama, while the sweetheart table gave our couple the place of honor, accented with lush greenery and flowers in soft mauve and blush.

Every detail felt like it was straight out of a modern fairytale. 🖤 🤍 ✨ What’s your favorite part of this stunning set up?

Because the team makes the dream:
