Fall Wedding at Sequoia Restaurant

Flowers in shades of cream, champagne, and burgundy perfectly complemented Amanda and Brian’s deep green and gold color scheme for their fall wedding at Sequoia Restaurant. Amanda carried a bouquet of champagne roses, cream stock and lisianthus, ivory spray roses, and burgundy dahlia and berries finished with trailing wisps of variegated ivy and seeded eucalyptus. Brian’s boutoniere perfectly matched with a champagne roses and seeded eucalyptus.

The ceremony took place facing the waterfront with Sequoia’s dramatic, tall windows in the background. Flanking the couple were tall glass trumpet vases with designs of antique green hydrangea, purple ornamental kale, champagne roses and ivory spray roses, cream stock and lisianthus, burgundy dahlia and berries. Trailing ivy vines and seeded eucalyptus complemented the arrangement with texture.

A smaller version of the ceremony arrangements was centered on the escort card table. The tables featured a mix of pillar candles with small gold mercury glass compotes holding lush arrangements in champagne, burgundy and green. The head table featured a mix of candles and flowers stretched along the length of the 12′ rectangle. A festive design of wedding flowers in champagne, burgundy and green crowned the cake with additional clusters strategically positioned along the tiers.

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!

Designing at River Farm always feels like a breath of fresh air — quite literally! The gardens are already so lush and abundant, so for Caitlin & Sean’s wedding, our goal was to create florals that felt like a natural extension of the landscape. We adorned the existing pergola with a floral installation designed to look as though it had always been blooming there — organic, graceful, and perfectly at home in the garden.⁣

This moment. This backdrop. Nicole & Cina’s wedding ceremony at the Reagan International Trade Building was a masterclass in modern romance. White petals lined the aisle while a copper-painted square arch framed our couple in soft waves of white + green blooms. The final touch? The bride + her bridesmaids perfectly poised beneath the arch—one of those “stop scrolling” moments we’ll never tire of. Timeless, effortless, unforgettable.

Lush, lavish, and unapologetically sophisticated - these were the guiding words for the Hill & Valley Forum event at Union Station, where golden sunset tones met architectural grandeur in the most unforgettable way. The vision? A celebration that felt masculine yet elevated.⁣

To bring it to life, we had the joy of collaborating with Atelier Ashley Flowers. Sharing a unified palette but each interpreting it through our distinct lens, we created a layered floral story that unfolded across the space. Bold, textural blooms anchored our design, complementing the dramatic backdrop of this iconic venue while staying true to the event`s refined style.⁣
