Venue Spotlight: Eaton DC

Located in downtown Washington, DC, Eaton is a full-service hotel and industrial DC wedding venue that aims to assist couples in creating an event that reflect the values and beliefs that makes each couple unique. The venue offers sustainably sourced food, inclusive programming so that all can celebrate, and opportunities for their guests to help improve the world.

We were so excited to collaborate with Eaton DC to produce some images that showcase the industrial DC wedding venue. A mock ceremony in the Crystal Room showcased a beautiful, trend-worthy deconstructed arch in classic greens with pops of white roses and spray roses. The aisle was lined with eleagnus foliage and glass-enclosed pillar candles. Lastly, at the start of the aisle we placed two pedestals with large focal arrangements of lush greens with stock, roses and spray roses to welcome guests into the ceremony space. Ooh-la-la indeed!

We adore the spacious Beverly Snow Room, which features industrial aesthetics with concrete floors and exposed brick walls in a natural, light-filled room. The Salon makes a perfect intimate ceremony or cocktail hour space. To showcase the spaciousness of this industrial DC wedding venue, we designed a mix of tall and low designs with an eye towards a classic but organic modern vibe, re-incorporating the foliage from the ceremony into the head table to complement the organic vibe of the room. The rest of the tables displayed lush designs in green and white for a classic yet organic palette.

Reasons we are IN LOVE with Eaton DC:

Central DC location with amenities like valet and parking.
DOG FRIENDLY!
All white painted brick walls for a clean and crisp finish
Gorgeous open duct work for a unique industrial vibe in the reception space (Dying to create a floral treatment above the dance floor!)
Stunning light filled windows! Most industrial spaces lack light. This one has plenty!
Modern light fixtures for the perfect combination of industrial meets modern.

See for yourself why this will be a sought after event space, especially for weddings, in the DC area! You won’t regret it!

This week is our last "calm before the storm", and for that we are most thankful! Thanksgiving is that last burst of fall color before the start of holiday sparkle. As we head into the December whirlwind of holiday décor, winter weddings, restaurant installations, and a very special charity celebration, we’re taking a moment to savor the pause.⁣
⁣
The quiet beauty of the harvest always reminds us of David & Eric`s wedding at Decatur House, where the centerpieces weren’t flowers at all but an abundant tapestry of fruits and vegetables. A true harvest table: seasonal, generous, and grounded in the idea that beauty can come from what’s already been given.⁣
⁣
This week, that feels especially right. Gratitude for the work behind us. Gratitude for what’s ahead. And gratitude for the couples, planners, teams, and communities who make this wild, wonderful season possible.⁣

Maybe green really is having its moment. Between the Yellow Brick Road yellows, the poppy-red anemones, and a reception drenched in layered greens, this Oz-inspired spring event felt like a preview of the color conversations designers are having now.

From emerald to chartreuse to the softest sage, green can be grounding, glamorous, or a little bit wild — sometimes all at once. And with the Wicked sequel stirring up the color world again, we’re curious…

Which shade is your leading character this season?

Some of the most meaningful moments in this work come from the families who return to us. Mey first reached out by saying she’d loved her sister Iona’s wedding flowers, from the colors, the choices, the way everything held up for days. She wanted something just as thoughtful for her own wedding at 101 Constitution.⁣
⁣
A textured mix of white florals with lush eucalyptus bringing its blue-green hues gave the skyline a quiet elegance of its own. And standing there with that view of the Capitol, it was hard not to feel grateful for the trust families place in us, year after year. It’s an honor every single time.⁣

Not every couple is lucky enough to wake up to the perfect weather for their perfect outdoor ceremony. But that is not reason to fret! Somtimes the plan shifts. Laura & Ben`s outdoor ceremony at the Omni Shoreham moved inside at the last moment, and it turned out to be perfect all the same. We built a custom chuppah to frame their nuptials, overlaid with branches and flowers to echo a natural garden arbor. Swipe to see more of what made this one of our favorite spring weddings! (And they still managed to sneak in a few outdoor photos. 😉)⁣

Let me go on record saying: when it comes to candles, especially in winter, more is more. 😉

Alexa, please play Christmas music.

Too early? I confess. I’m a Thanksgiving purist. It’s literally my favorite holiday. But as a floral designer, I’m often living a season ahead. Thinking of spring when it’s winter, or fall in the heat of summer. And yes, plotting winter holiday decor when it’s Halloween (if not the 4th of July!)

But something about the quiet in the air today and news of snow in places nearby is all it took to awaken my holiday spirit and launch holiday planning mode! If it takes you more to get you in the mood, maybe Sonja & Mike’s Christmas wedding from a few years ago will do the trick!
