Fall December Wedding

Fall December Wedding

Winter is a funny time of year for a wedding in DC. Will it be wintry with snow on the ground? Will it be fall? You never know, and the vibrant yellow leafed backdrop for Erika and Erich’s December wedding was no different! We call it a fall December wedding!

Erika and Erich had a delightful ceremony at Holy Rosary Catholic Church. The ladies carried luscious bouquets in romantic ivory, pale pinks and peaches. Erin’s bouquet featured white and ivory peonies, garden roses, stock, and sweet pea accented with touches of seeded eucalyptus foliage. Her bridesmaids carried roses, stock, ranunculus and sweet pea in ivories, peaches and pinks accented with seeded eucalyptus.

Following the ceremony, the reception took place at the Carnegie Institute. A romantic and intimate glow was created with a mix of candles and low table designs.

In the grand rotunda, tall designs topped gold vases, each featuring a lush mix of hydrangea, stock, roses and spray roses, hypericum berries and a mix of seeded eucalyptus and evergreens – a subtle nod to the season. Candles filled the fireplace in the board room.

In addition to the table arrangements, lush wreaths were placed on the backs of Erika and Erich’s chairs for the reception. Each featured soft pinks, peaches and ivories. A demo-cascade of wedding flowers adorned the cake.

Some weddings are sweet.

This one? Smart, stylish, and just a little unexpected.

At Eaton DC, where there’s a record player in the lobby and intention in every detail, we brought florals that nodded to tradition. White and blush, gold compotes, lush greenery - and then we slipped in a few surprises (hello, orchids). From a ceremony full of movement to tall reception designs that played with height and shape, this wedding proved modern love doesn’t have to be minimal.

No, ma’am. That’s not how any of this works… 

💐✨ Wedding flower myths? We’ve heard them all. ✨

“You can just reuse the _____ flowers.”
“Faux flowers look the same.”
“Greenery is cheap, right?”

We get it. Planning a wedding comes with a lot of well-meaning advice. But when it comes to flowers, there’s a big difference between a cost-saving hack and a costly mistake.

At Petal’s Edge, we design with intention, experience, and artistry. We’re not here to upsell. We’re here to guide you through what works, what doesn’t, and what’s actually worth it. Because your flowers should feel just as thoughtful as the rest of your wedding. 🌿💐
Forget “Something Borrowed’. Seriously - have you ever seen such a stunning and tasteful incorporation of blue tones in a wedding? We brought a playful twist on “Something Blue’ into Wendy & Erik’s wedding day at @willard_intercontinentaldc With touches of blue Chinoiserie vases, not to mention other blue touches like ribbons and bridesmaid dresses, the blush and ivory floral palette of all blended perfectly together! Cheers to a beautiful day as magnificent as the happy couple!
