Elegant Hay Adams DC Wedding

Elegant Hay Adams DC Wedding

Petal's Edge DC | Real Wedding at the Hay-Adams Hotel | Washington DC Wedding Florist

Few wedding venues are as romantic and elegant as the Hay Adams Hotel in Washington, DC, which is just one of the reasons we were thrilled to design Robin and Chuck’s flowers for their reception. Everything about the couple’s elegant Hay Adams wedding was sophisticated, including their classic winter white color palette! Creating a stunning contrast to Robin’s unique olive gown was her sophisticated, white-hued French hand-tied bouquet. Mini calla lilies were ringed with a collar of winter white astilbe and wrapped in ivory satin ribbon, finished with delicate pearl-headed pins. Chuck’s boutonnière was timeless and white as well, combining a complementary mini calla lily and winter white astilbe, wrapped in masculine black ribbon.

Reception in the John Hay Room

For the cocktail hour at the Hay Adams, we provided delicate tale arrangements consisting of artful stems of mini calla lilies, displayed in small vases. The elegant Hay Adams wedding reception remained classic, with centerpieces of lush, textured white hydrangea, white stock, ivory roses, white astilbe, white freesia, white mini calla lilies and white anemone, accented with green camelia foliage and displayed in gold mercury glass bowls. The sweet finale was a stunning cake topped with an elegant crown of mini calla lilies.

Congratulations to Robin and Chuck on their elegant Hay Adams DC wedding, with our warmest wishes for a lifetime of happiness together!

Love in full bloom - rain and all ☔️ ✨ 

Tamari & Zach embraced the romance of a rainy day ceremony at the historic Tudor Place, saying “I do” beneath clear umbrellas. Then they celebrated in the cozy, intimate setting of the Tabard Inn - with a warm floral palette of corals and oranges, the dreamiest Cafe au Lait dahlias, and proof that a little rain only adds to the magic.

G is for greenery 🌿, L is for lush ✨… you get the idea! 

When it comes to statement-making florals, a well-placed garland can do it all—elevate long tables, frame a ceremony aisle, or even drape around a fountain for that effortlessly chic look. Who said greenery was just filler? 💅

Industrial spaces have a beauty of their own, but the right floral design can take them from warehouse to urban garden. 🌿✨ 

For Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding, we played with scale—tall magnolia branches to emphasize the height, lush florals to soften the space, and candlelight to add warmth. The result? An urban oasis that felt both grand and intimate.

1️⃣Go Big with Greenery – Tall magnolia branches brought height and movement to Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding

2️⃣ Mix Textures – Lush, low floral arrangements softened the industrial edges while keeping the space dynamic

3️⃣ Layer Candlelight – Warm glows + metal details = a romantic urban oasis

4️⃣ Frame Key Spaces – A floral garland on the head table grounded the design and added intimacy. Trees flanking the table took it to the next level 

5️⃣ Contrast is Key – Pairing the raw, industrial elements with soft florals and organic details created the perfect balance
