Elegant Lyceum Wedding

Elegant Lyceum Wedding

Petal's Edge DC | Lyceum Wedding Alexandria, VA | Washington DC Wedding Florist

Blues and greys were everywhere at David’s and Josh’s elegant Lyceum wedding in Alexandria, VA. We were honored to create classic floral decor for these handsome grooms and to help set the stage for a wonderful celebration of love!

David’s and Josh’s boutonnieres featured blue thistle accented with silver-hued dusty miller, while the rest of the boutonnieres incorporated light blue delphinium accented with bear grass. For the mothers and the best woman, we created corsages of ivory roses and spray roses for a timeless effect. For the couple’s adorable flower girl, we filled a white wicker basket with a design of blue thistle, finished with silver satin ribbon.

 

Two striking ceremony altar arrangements made a perfect statement for the elegant Lyceum wedding. Set in copper urns atop pedestals, contained a mix of dark and light blue hydrangea, dark and light blue delphinium, blue thistle, light blue nigella, and dusty miller foliage, with touches of lemon leaf foliage. At the reception, elegant and understated centerpieces shone at each guest table, with lush wreaths of dark blue hydrangea, light blue delphinium, light blue thistle, and silver-hued dusty miller foliage surrounding lanterns provided by the grooms. Meanwhile, David and Josh themselves dined at a classic sweetheart table, accented with a small silver revere bowl filled with a textured design of the same gorgeous blue blooms showcased throughout the wedding. For a sweet finale, we festooned the wedding cake with delicate wedding flowers in a blue and grey color palette.

It’s Bike to Work Day — and while we usually pedal toward petals, we couldn’t resist sharing this creative twist from Elle & Bryan, one of our couples who wheeled their love of cycling straight into the ceremony. 🚲✨ 

Elle & Bryan’s wedding at Dumbarton House was full of charm, personal touches, and one especially fun nod to their love of cycling. Bicycle wheels became sculptural backdrops, proving that when it comes to personal touches, there’s no such thing as too niche.

Designing florals around unexpected objects? That’s our lane. And yes — it was all uphill in the best possible way.

A night of mystery and masquerade — and the perfect way to fête the 10th anniversary of The Scout Guide Alexandria and the launch of Vol. 10! ✨ 

We loved adding our signature touch of floral drama to this year’s launch party at the Hotel Heron. From a moody and dramatic entrance piece to a flower-filled car, sculptural arrangements on cocktail tables and elevated bar arrangements casting feathered shadows and moody textures, this event let us play in a world of whimsy and wonder.

We’re proud to be part of a guide that champions small businesses and celebrates creativity in our community. Supporting local means investing in the makers, doers, and dreamers who make Alexandria vibrant — and The Scout Guide does just that, beautifully. Cheers to Vol. 10! Special thanks to Sarah and Claire for always being so supportive and encouraging.
