Fairmont DC Wedding

Michelle and Sam were blessed with a gorgeous day in July for their Fairmont DC wedding. They kicked things off with a ceremony at Holy Trinity Church in Georgetown. Afterwards, guests enjoyed cocktails and a festive reception at the Fairmont DC Hotel’s Courtyard and Colonnade room.

The couple’s wedding ceremony was simple and traditional, with Michelle walking down the aisle carrying a stunning cascade bouquet in whites and lavenders, with naturally cascading stems of white phalaenopsis orchids. Her bouquet featured lavender and white roses, lavender clematis. Two traditional altar arrangements in whites and lavenders marked the altar where the couple recited their vows.

July is without a doubt HOT in Washington, DC, and so if you love the security of an indoor wedding venue and natural light, there’s not better place than the Fairmont DC for your wedding. The gorgeous Colonnade room offers 360 degrees of floor-to-ceiling windows.

Elevating Michelle and Sam’s reception, lush designs of smilax and eucalyptus accented with lavender and white roses decorated the two front columns of the Colonnade. And as if that wasn’t enough, the head table featured a 30-feet long deconstructed garland of white hydrangea, lavender and white roses, lavender and white stock, lavender clematis and touches of greenery. Alternating tall and low centerpiece designs created drama and movement within the space, and the floral palette of cool lavenders and white was the perfect solution to the July heat.

We thank you for trusting us with your vision, and wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Theres something about September that always feels like a turning point. The days are still warm, but the morning is a bit cooler. School is back in session. The light starts to change. And after a long DC summer, you do all get that first day when you can open the door and think, yes, fall really is coming. 🍁 

For me fall has always been tied to the rhythm of the school year. Kids going back to school and calendars filling up. Pulling sweaters out of the back of the closet, and thinking about Halloween before you’re quite ready to admit summer is over. 

In the studio, autumn has another rhythm. September and October weddings - arguably our busiest time of the year - paired with all sorts of fun things. Pods, berries, grasses and all sorts of funky things. 

I think there’s a reason fall weddings always feel so right. It’s a season built around change. The landscape shifts, the light softens, the year begins winding down… and in the midst of that, two people choose to begin something. 

Maybe that’s what I love about this time of year. Autumn can feel nostalgic and hopeful at the same time. So here’s to another fall wedding season, changing leaves, cooler nights (no mosquitoes), celebrations and all the new beginnings still ahead.
Classic roses. Ethereal baby’s breath. And bleached ruscus for some fashion forward style. Classic with an edge.
