Hot Pink and Orange Wedding

We must confess. We have a soft spot for bright colors. So when Lillian and Tim came to use wanting a vibrant palette of hot pink and orange for their wedding, our hearts were all aflutter! Lillian carried a bouquet of hot pink roses accented with mango mini-calla lilies, a bold and clean-lined statement. Boutonnieres featured hot pink roses.

The bridesmaids carried simpler bouquets of roses – the maids of honor in hot pink and orange while the remaining bridesmaids featured hot pinks and peaches. Flanking the ceremony were two expressive designs of hot pink dendrobium orchids on tall glass vases.

For the reception, the designs exclusively featured orchids. Gold ceramic cubes held a profusion of hot pink and orange mokara orchids, while fluted glass vases elevated starbursts of hot pink dendrobium orchids.

No inspiration photos. No flower list. No detailed design brief. Just a color palette and the freedom to run with it.

We took fuchsia, purple, and blue and turned them into layers of saturated color, unexpected textures, and flowers that made the whole room feel alive.

There’s something pretty magical about a client giving us a direction and then getting out of the way. They know their brand. We know flowers. And this is what happens when everyone trusts each other to do what they do best.

Give us the colors. We’ll take it from there. 🌸

The bouquet is often the first place a couple’s floral vision comes to life. It is the piece everyone notices up close, and it quietly sets the tone for the entire wedding design.⁣

For Mandana & Jan’s St. Francis Hall wedding, Mandana carried a cascading bouquet of white anemone, burgundy hanging amaranthus, roses and spray roses in shades of burgundy and cream, and burgundy protea accented with eucalyptus and jasmine vine. The shapes were bold and sculptural, which gave the bouquet a modern feeling while still feeling elegant against the historic backdrop of the hall. When a bouquet reflects the personality of the couple, it becomes more than just flowers. It becomes part of the story of the day.⁣

There’s something really special about designing flowers for a venue that already feels immersed in the landscape around it.⁣

At the Dockmaster Building, the water, sky, reflections, and light become part of the experience. The floor-to-ceiling glass and panoramic waterfront views create a setting that feels airy, modern, and completely different from the more traditional DC wedding venues we work in so often.⁣

We loved leaning into that atmosphere for Claire & Sean`s wedding with flowers that felt organic, textural, and romantic without competing with the architecture or the view.⁣
