Welcome to Petal’s Edge and our DC weddings blog – an exciting forum where we share a range of topics related to flowers, weddings, and events in the Washington, DC metropolitan area.

Petal’s Edge Floral Design may have begun in a humble basement in 2004, but we have grown in the past 20 years to become a premiere voice in Washington, DC weddings as florist and event designers in the greater metropolitan area. With over 2,000 weddings under our belt – and a number of awards for our work – we can easily say we are experts in both functional and fashionable floral design for weddings.

Together with an incredibly talented team of designers, we work in a variety of styles, from classic and traditional, modern, vintage or rustic, to name a few. Trend may as well be our middle name, as our versatility equips us well to accommodate shifting styles and tastes, accommodate new props and what ever else DC weddings throw our way.

Love in full bloom - rain and all ☔️ ✨ 

Tamari & Zach embraced the romance of a rainy day ceremony at the historic Tudor Place, saying “I do” beneath clear umbrellas. Then they celebrated in the cozy, intimate setting of the Tabard Inn - with a warm floral palette of corals and oranges, the dreamiest Cafe au Lait dahlias, and proof that a little rain only adds to the magic.

G is for greenery 🌿, L is for lush ✨… you get the idea! 

When it comes to statement-making florals, a well-placed garland can do it all—elevate long tables, frame a ceremony aisle, or even drape around a fountain for that effortlessly chic look. Who said greenery was just filler? 💅

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
