Venue Spotlight: Eaton DC

May 6, 2021

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!

Thank you to Megan and Damien for their 5 star review! We loved flowering and coordinating their beautiful wedding day at St. Francis Hall! ⁣

“We were so lucky that we found Petal`s Edge. Gorgeous flowers and we hired Gerry for her super talented day of wedding coordination. Planning a wedding is hard but Petal`s Edge made it easy. Beyond super beautiful florals that really elevated our day and made it special, it was such a huge help that any time I was stuck in the planning process, Gerry answered any question I had. Her professionalism and capabilities are simply unmatched. She knows everything about venues, vendors and more inside and out. Meetings to see your floral designs are super smooth. Petal`s Edge will write your contract super fast and easily helped us amend it. The day of the wedding couldn`t have been more perfect. It was so easy and fun. Petal`s Edge set everything up perfectly and make sure it ran smoothly. The florals were so beautiful!! I loved all of the details, from a stunning bridal bouquet, posies for moms and grandmas, framing the posters with eucalyptus, to gorgeous multicolored petals down the aisle. Our guests were so comfortable and well taken care of the whole night. Petal`s Edge really took the rustic/classic vision I had in mind and made it a gorgeous reality.”⁣

Industrial spaces have a beauty of their own, but the right floral design can take them from warehouse to urban garden. 🌿✨

For Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding, we played with scale—tall magnolia branches to emphasize the height, lush florals to soften the space, and candlelight to add warmth. The result? An urban oasis that felt both grand and intimate.

1️⃣Go Big with Greenery – Tall magnolia branches brought height and movement to Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding

2️⃣ Mix Textures – Lush, low floral arrangements softened the industrial edges while keeping the space dynamic

3️⃣ Layer Candlelight – Warm glows + metal details = a romantic urban oasis

4️⃣ Frame Key Spaces – A floral garland on the head table grounded the design and added intimacy. Trees flanking the table took it to the next level

5️⃣ Contrast is Key – Pairing the raw, industrial elements with soft florals and organic details created the perfect balance

Amanda & Matt`s District Winery wedding was filled with lush greenery - a fresh turn on a winder wedding to bring the outdoors in. A hanging greenery focal point created the perfect backdrop for the happy couple - both for the ceremony and then the head table. Amanda shared the kindest review following the wedding: ⁣

“Magical. Ethereal. Breathtaking. Gerry and her team transformed District Wintery into a magical winter wonderland. Our theme was icy blue winter and the flowers, ceiling and stairwell installation were on point!”⁣

Not all green and white floral palettes are created equal. This one here will NEVER go out of style and is truly as timeless as they come! Magnolia, eucalyptus, rosemary, and delicate touches of white… Add velvet linens and gold touches, and we’re smitten... 😍

A wedding in an art gallery deserves florals that are a work of art, as well! The towering floral pieces we designed for Jen and Doug’s wedding at the National Museum of Women in the Arts blended the clean, modern lines of calla lilies with the texture and color of larkspur, stock and snapdragons to elevate the design of their beautiful wedding at the museum.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

We’ve had our share of Irish-inspired wedding, but on a day celebrating green is only felt right to throw it back to Emily & Menachem’s green-filled wedding at Potomac View Terrace. The wedding quite literally brought nature to the forefront of its design. From stately trees lining the ceremony space, to potted ivy plants for cocktail hour decor, and lush greenery garland runners and tall camellia branch designs for the reception, we’re pretty sure an Irish leprechaun would approve! 🍀
