Fall Wedding at 2941 Restaurant

Tucked away in what otherwise looks to the untrained eye like yet another an office park in northern Virginia is 2941 Restaurant. Lush landscaping, koi ponds, waterfalls, and a lakeside view make stunning options for your unforgettable day – like this unforgettable fall wedding at 2941. Complete with natural views and contemporary decor, it is a hot spot for weddings.

Creating the magical event our couples have been preparing for is a highlight of our work at Petal’s Edge. We love creating beautiful bouquets, unique decor elements, beautiful arches, and stunning rooms – no matter how big or small the wedding. Mariama and Ted had all these and more, so our excitement was palpable!

While embracing the texture and moody hues of fall, Mariama and Ted favored fresh and contemporary touches for their fall wedding at 2941 Restaurant. Classic fall blooms like dahlia, astilbe, and amaranthus were mixed with textures like magnolia, olive leaf, eucalyptus and more.

Mariama’s bouquet was filled with rich garden roses, dahlia, mini-calla lilies and astilbe in rich reds accented with blush toned spray roses and finished with olive leaf and eucalyptus. Burgundy amaranthus created a natural cascade for the bouquet. For a twist on traditional, the bridesmaids carried elegant hoops adorned with blush and ivory astilbe, spray roses, and blushing bride protea accented with eucalyptus. The men’s boutonnieres were designed using mini-calla lilies for a clean-lined, modern touch.

The ceremony was set with a deconstructed arch of stunning magnolia foliage accented with a mix of burgundy and blush dahlias, roses and spray roses.

The palette for the reception continued the look, with contemporary crystal candlesticks topped with lush designs of roses, dahlia, magnolia and more, the perfect color scheme for a fall wedding at 2941. Burgundy linens brought an untold warmth to the room.

It’s been a very long time since floral centerpieces were just flowers in a vase. Today’s centerpieces have multiple elements, loads of candles, things that have to be assembled and even built on-site. And yet the presumption persists that the florist is just going to show up with a box that can be left in the corner for someone else to place on the table.

Putting aside the fact that we take far more pride in our work than that… to say that we value logistics and planning is an understatement!! And logistics are truly our skill set. We can tell you how many man hours a particular installation will take and can design for efficiency. It’s truly our super power.

Most floral design relies on other things being in place. Not useful? “You can get into the room at this time.” Actually useful? “The bar you’re building that cascading piece on will in place no later than X o’clock.” But more than that? Start realizing that event demands are not what they used to be.

We were at the Willard InterContinental this past weekend setting up for Mari`s bridal shower. Think pink, gardeny, everything spring.⁣
⁣
The Crystal Room is always a lot of look. Those green marble columns, the chandeliers... and yet it`s so quintessentially DC! There`s something about that room that makes pink feel completely at home.⁣
⁣
It took us straight back to Sophia & Daniel`s wedding ceremony in the same space. Pink baby`s breath, roses, the whole thing. Two totally different events, same magic. Pink and the Crystal Room? We`re convinced it`s a love story. 💚🌸⁣

I love eavesdropping. 😜

While setting up for the new Georgetown Citibank, we overheard someone say, “This is the moment.” ❤️

And I couldn’t have said it better myself. Because when flowers are doing their job, they don’t just fill a space. They create a moment you can feel.
