Holiday-Inspired Wedding at Dupont Circle Hotel

Holiday-Inspired Wedding at Dupont Circle Hotel

The floral narrative of Sonja and Mike’s holiday-inspired wedding unfolded with an air of refined grace and understated opulence. The bridal bouquet reflected a seamless interplay of burgundy, blush, and ivory tones. Adorned with Black Magic roses, burgundy cymbidium orchids, white anemone, Barista and Quicksand roses, it reflected a scheme that was both festive and sophisticated

Bridesmaids’ bouquets echoed this refined sentiment, offering a subdued yet equally elegant interpretation. Blush Quicksand and mauve Barista roses, interwoven with white stock and burgundy ranunculus, complemented with their dresses. Enveloped in rich burgundy double-faced satin ribbon, they added a touch of understated elegance.

The welcome sign was graced with a subtle flourish of winter’s charm, accented with an artful composition of evergreens, eucalyptus foliage, burgundy roses, red hypericum berries, and ivory spray roses. It set a tone of refined warmth and sophistication for arriving guests.

The table arrangements blossomed with natural splendor, harmonizing with the celebration of enduring love. Half of the tables featured towering glass pilsner vases, cradling a lush fusion of winter evergreens, eucalyptus, and a profusion of burgundy roses, spray roses, and Safari Sunset protea. Encircled by glass-encased pillar and floating candles, they cast an intimate, wintry radiance.

The remaining tables were centered with glass-footed bowls, brimming with textured arrangements of winter greens, eucalyptus, and a symphony of Black Magic, Quicksand, and Barista roses. White anemone, stock, and burgundy astilbe completed the tableau, while three elevated floating candles danced in a graceful triangle around the blooms.

Sonja and Mike’s holiday-inspired wedding was equally a celebration of love and the season. The mini-Christmas tree behind the sweetheart table further accented with roses was the perfect finishing touch to a festive event.

As baseball season wraps, we’re celebrating a win of our own: bringing Petal’s Edge floral magic to Nationals Park for a special event. While most days take us to historic houses and grand ballrooms, we love the chance to design somewhere unexpected. Because flowers don’t just belong in gardens. They shine in stadiums too!
When the bride wears black, everything else falls into place. At Lauren & Alan’s Hotel Monaco wedding, the candlelight flickered against layers of greenery, lanterns, and shadow. The palette whispered more than it spoke. White flowers wouldn’t have belonged here; this was a story told in texture, depth, and restraint.

There’s power in contrast: light against dark, softness against structure, the unexpected choice that somehow feels inevitable once you see it. The design was less about decoration and more about atmosphere. Mysterious, elegant, and entirely unforgettable.

Florals in full dramatic mode for The Scout Guide Alexandria launch party at the Hotel Heron. A trunk bursting with roses, a plum-and-black arch layered in texture and light. Modern romance with an editorial edge. The evening’s palette played with tension: shadow against shine, petals against metal.

We love when flowers step outside the ballroom and into the spotlight, blurring the line between installation and arrangement. These designs were made to stop traffic, literally and figuratively.
