Fall District Winery Wedding

It’s always a welcome challenge when our couples come to us with a unique floral palette in mind. Alicia and Gigi used their bridesmaids’ patterned floral dresses as inspiration for the rest of their fall District Winery wedding. Alicia had a pretty clear vision of the wedding style, and so we stepped in with floral choices that would create the classic, casual and fun vibe the couple was going for. Here are highlights from their fall wedding at District Winery.

Can we all just take a minute to stop and drool over our bride’s bouquet?!? From the peach garden roses, to terra cotta roses, orange ranunculus, mango calla lilies, white anemone, blue thistle and more, there as much to delight the eye.

One of the more unusual aspects of Alicia and Gigi’s wedding was the split schedule. The ceremony took place on Friday at the National Cathedral, while the celebration was scheduled for the Monday following on Labor Day weekend. We have worked at District Winery probably a dozen times by now, and garland is the reigning choice to enhance the venue’s long family style reception tables. We particularly love letting the dramatic and romantic effect of letting the garland cascade elegantly to the floor. A lush design focused on summer’s best dahlia graced the two bars, while the garland was tucked with pops of color blooms in shades of peach, orange, and blue.

In discussing final changes, one of our couples had a note of hesitation in her voice, worried her palette might set a different mood than intended. Not seasonal enough? Too austere?

But here’s the thing: mood can be a matter of perspective. Which brings us to this wedding: once upon a time, orange was typecast as a strictly fall color. But flowers don’t follow rules. They bloom wildly, confidently, year-round! There are orange flowers in every season and in recent years, we’ve seen orange blooms show up to spring weddings, as warm oranges at summer soirées, and of course they’re still the favored guest at autumn affairs. Each time, the hue brings something fresh. Joy. Energy. That just-right edge.

Your color story should feel like you. In fact, for Olivia & David’s wedding, our bride’s mother shared that the color palette had been the one in her daughter’s childhood bedroom. A vibrant floral story that she had been living with all along. That’s what flowers can do. Pull memories forward, stitch generations together and turn a wedding into something deeply personal. And if it happens to challenge a few outdated ideas? Even better. 😉

You know it’s a good day when this is the response you get to a proposal:⁣
⁣
“I’m actually crying. It’s so beautiful. It’s everything I wanted it to be.”⁣
⁣
Many companies spend tons of time, money, and effort trying to dissect and analyze consumer habits, lifestyle patterns and predictive indicators of “ideal clients”. It turns out, we can use flowers to speak to our clients` vision, and it`s something we`ve figured out simply by listening. We take simple cues and sometimes vague descriptions, turning them into a clear direction that reflects each couple’s individual nuances and personality.

We will never tire of a warm and colorful wedding in the city during the winter months. Sunny yellow just hits differently during those cold dark evenings! 💛

Ten years is a wild thing to look back on! And 20 photos is hardly enough. Scrolling through 2016 feels like opening a time capsule of big ideas, brave design choices, and most of all, couples who trusted us with moments that still matter. That year was packed. New venues. A blizzard. We ordered more dusty miller than we thought could safely exist in the world, and greenery was having a moment. Features landed because the work spoke for itself. We saw our flowers in print, on glossy pages people actually saved, and across platforms that shaped the wedding world at the time.

Our rebrand had already happened a couple years prior, during our tenth anniversary, so 2016 was about momentum: refining who we were, deepening relationships, and building a body of work that still feels like us.

The way we share has changed, but the heart of it hasn’t. Great clients. Thoughtful design. And stories that age beautifully. 💐
