Hay Adams Wedding

Wedding couple post in front of Washington monument

Chrissy and Warren’s Hay Adams wedding was the definition of a glamorous. With its timeless palette of black tuxedos and bridesmaids’ gowns and lavish white flowers, all against the backdrop of our nation’s capital, it was undoubtedly an event to remember!

For Chrissy, we designed an elegant, French hand-tied bridal bouquet in classic whites and ivories. White garden roses, ivory Vendela roses, white ranunculus, and white lisianthus were wrapped in ivory double-faced satin ribbon in a crisscross design.

Each of her bridesmaids carried lush, French hand-tied bouquets of Vendela roses, wrapped with black satin ribbon.

Warren’s boutonniere showcased a flawless white rose accented with artful loops of bear grass. For the remaining boutonnieres, we created a similar style with ivory spray roses accented with bear grass.

At the couple’s Hay Adams wedding reception, we festooned the tables with a mix of two striking glamorous wedding centerpiece designs. Half the tables featured a tall, glass pilsner-style vase topped with a gorgeous, rounded design of white hydrangea, white stock, ivory roses and spray roses, and white lisianthus finished with draping accents of white phalaenopsis orchids. Soft candlelight twinkled from the six stemmed glass containers of varying heights, each with a floating candle.

The remaining tables were adorned with a tall, crystal candelabra, anchored by a trio of lush designs of white hydrangea and white roses and garden roses, each displayed in a gold-rimmed cylinder vase.

Special thanks to Chrissy and Warren for including us as part of such a magical event – best wishes for a lifetime of happiness together!

The Old Masters knew something we’re bringing back. ✨

Clusters of plums, grapes, even nuts add to the lush tablescape of flowers, the kind of abundance that belongs in a Caravaggio painting. Rich, tactile, and impossibly beautiful in person. It’s one of our favorite ways to add depth and drama to a wedding table without sacrificing an ounce of elegance.

Twenty years in business means there are people whose stories become part of yours.

When former Petal’s Edge designer Bree got married in Hendersonville, North Carolina, we knew we wanted to more than just present. So we loaded up supplies, traveled south, turned an Airbnb into a temporary design studio, sourced flowers from a local wholesaler (hats off to Coward Wholesale Flowers for being so helpful in addition to our local ride or die @potomacfloralwholesale), and spent the week creating wedding flowers far from home.

It’s not every day that a florist gets to design for one of their own. The miles, logistics, and long days were worth it to celebrate someone who spent years helping create beautiful weddings for others.

This time, it was Bree’s turn, and we couldn’t be happier.
