Gatsby Inspired Omni Wedding

Gatsby Inspired Omni Wedding

The Omni’s garden is a truly beautiful space for a wedding ceremony made even more gorgeous when the weather is perfect.  This elegant fall wedding was inspired by the luxe style of the 1920’s and The Great Gatsby. Shades of burgundy, eggplant, champagne and sage green were used throughout the flowers.  Accents of pearls and gold added to the theme.

The bride’s bouquet featured eggplant calla lilies, Black Magic roses, burgundy dahlias, accented with champagne toned roses and seeded eucalyptus. Large pearl pins finished with bouquet and kept with the theme. For the bridesmaids, a bit of cream colored stock was added to the mix to give theirs an overall lighter feel.

The ceremony featured a simple chuppah erected in front of the Omni’s classic gazebo. Elegant posies of dahlias, roses and stock in shades of cream, champagne and burgundy accented with seeded eucalyptus draped from the top front corners of the structure.

The table centerpieces featured a striking mix of high and low styles, with the tall centerpieces adding antique green hydrangea to the mix of burgundy, eggplant and champagne roses and dahlias. Pearls were draped elegantly around the base of the flowers to add to the 1920’s theme. Low centerpieces in gold gold containers finished the dramatic look. A can’t miss? That cake from Fancy Cakes by Leslie. Just completes the look of the day!

Double duty, done beautifully.

For Claire & Sean’s wedding at the Dockmaster’s Building, we created a floral garland for their ceremony arch. Eleegant, lush, and just dramatic enough to hold its own against the waterfront backdrop.

But we weren’t done yet. That same garland made a second appearance, repurposed to trail down the length of their head table. Thoughtful, sustainable, and completely gorgeous. Because we believe a good floral moment deserves an encore.

Some weddings are magic. ✨

This one just took a cart, a loading dock, stairs, ramps, 250 feet of hallway, and a very determined florist team.

Here’s what you don’t see in the final gallery: the cardio, the zip ties, the setup hustle. But would we do it all again for this dreamy blue-and-white moment we created for Jenni & Aaron at the Omni Shoreham? Absolutely.

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.
