Head table details at Washington DC Hotel Monato
A March Wedding Bursting with Spring Elegance

Erin and Jay’s early March wedding at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco in Washington, DC, was a masterful blend of spring vibrancy and sophisticated glamour. Their modern Pi Day celebration was a picturesque fusion of festive yellows, sleek grays, and deep navy blues.

Floral Fantasies in the Heart of the City

The bride’s bouquet was a vision of elegance, featuring a lush mix of white roses, anemones, ranunculus, mini-callas, and tulips. The warm hues of yellow Butterscotch roses added a cozy touch, while the black centers of the anemones provided a striking modern contrast. The bridesmaids’ bouquets echoed this elegance, combining yellow, white, pale blue, and gray florals, beautifully offsetting their navy dresses.

The groom and his groomsmen exuded modern charm with their mini-calla lily boutonnieres, accentuated with bear grass. These subtle yet stylish accents perfectly complemented the men’s attire, adding a dash of botanical elegance.

Romantic Ambiance in the Ballroom

The ballroom of the Hotel Monaco transformed into a romantic haven. A white organza panel beneath the dome, adorned with a line of hanging votives and textured white flowers, created an ethereal canopy. The drama was heightened by the dramatic yellow forsythia branches lining the aisle.

Escort Card Table and Cocktail Hour Decor

The escort card table was a standout, featuring a navy silk dupioni-wrapped vase with a splendid arrangement of orchids, delphinium, and forsythia in coordinating colors. The cocktail hour tables flaunted a modern touch with glass rectangle vases showcasing submerged stems of yellow mini-callas and white tulips.

Ballroom Elegance with Dramatic Tablescapes

The ballroom was a scene of dramatic elegance, with a mix of tall and low floral designs. Tall glass cylinders with yellow forsythia branches towered over tables, while silver ceramic cylinders overflowed with a lush mix of white hydrangeas, anemones, tulips, ranunculus, roses, delphinium, and dusty miller. The king’s table, draped in glittery navy linen, was adorned with an eclectic array of small vases filled with flowers in white, yellow, gray, and light blue hues.

Erin and Jay’s Kimpton Hotel Monaco DC wedding was not just a celebration of their union but also a festival of modern elegance and springtime charm. Their special day, rich in colors and florals, truly captured the essence of a Pi Day wedding, combining mathematical whimsy with botanical beauty.

December has been a whirlwind. Weddings. Holiday parties. Installing holiday décor around town. The kind of month where the days blur and the studio never quite sleeps.

But one of the most meaningful moments has come through our involvement with Wish Upon a Wedding, an organization that grants weddings and vow renewals to couples facing serious illness or life-altering circumstances.

At the Citizen Ballroom, we helped bring Tiffianni & Minerva’s vow renewal to life. Their vision was unapologetically floral. A sweeping staircase installation layered in greenery. Flowers in saturated shades of fuchsia and purple. A lush deconstructed floral arch that framed their vows and later their sweetheart table. Tables glowed with flowers, candles, and lamps. The temperature may have been in the teens outside but inside was only warmth and light rooted in love. 

We began this year donating flowers to laid-off federal employees and end it celebrating Tiffianni & Minerva. Because this year hasn’t just been about decorating spaces. It’s about lifting spirits with flowers and helping to mark moments in meaningful ways.
