Hip Urban Wedding

As a designer, it’s always fun working with vivid colors, lush textures, and new venues! Megan and Joe’s hip urban wedding at Mess Hall in Washington, DC did not disappoint. If you’re looking for a raw, industrial space, Mess Hall is definitely one to consider. Nestled in one of DC’s newest hip neighborhoods, Mess Hall conveys an effortlessly cool vibe. From the urban loading dock for the ceremony to the graffiti and minimal warehouse decor, the venue is as unique as they come.

Moody Fall Floral Palette

Megan’s and her bridesmaids’ bouquets, it was all about the sophisticated palette of reds and burgundies with softer accent shades, as well as a diverse mix of beautiful blooms. Megan’s bridal bouquet included red Piano garden roses, lavender roses, peach stock and white rice flower, among which we tucked silver dollar eucalyptus, burgundy agionis foliage, and wispy white ostrich feathers. Her attendants carried complementary bouquets that featured Black Magic roses.

Industrial Ceremony Vibes

A dramatic copper arch served as the focal point for Megan and Joe’s hip urban wedding ceremony. The industrial feeling structure was accented with an asymmetrical design of silver dollar eucalyptus further finished with touches of ivory majolica spray roses.

Rustic Reception

For the reception, guests were seated at cozy long tables set with rustic, elegant centerpieces that perfectly suited Megan’s and Joe’s style. Designed in small, depression glass vases, each container held a mix of burgundy dahlia, burgundy ranunculus, and red zinnia, accented with silver dollar eucalyptus. We think the effect was gorgeous!

Megan and Joe’s hip urban wedding was a joy to help design, and we can’t thank them enough for including us in the festivities! Congratulations to the happy couple!

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.
