Pi Day at Kimpton Hotel Monaco DC Wedding

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.

Alexandra & Brian’s wedding at River Farm had that early summer, just-gathered feeling that never tries too hard but still feels completely considered. The palette stayed soft. Think pastel wildflowers with a little movement, nothing too tight or overly styled. Everything felt natural to the setting.⁣
⁣
The ceremony unfolded under the big tree with an arch that felt like it had grown there, loose and garden-inspired in shades of pale pink, light blue, cream, and lavender. It set the tone for the entire day.⁣
⁣
For the reception, long tables were filled all the way down with milk glass, blue mason jars, and pieces of depression glass, each one holding a slightly different mix of flowers. It created that full, abundant look that makes a space feel warm and inviting, while still leaving room for everything the evening needed to hold.⁣
Personal, relaxed, and quietly layered in a way that lets the setting - and the people in it - shine.⁣

It’s planning season for the Scout Guide launch party, and we couldn’t be more excited. 💃🏻

Any guesses on what we’ll see this year? 🤔

There is something especially beautiful about bringing soft garden flowers into a space like St. Francis Hall. The historic stone walls have a certain weight to them, and loose, romantic florals create a lovely contrast that keeps the room from feeling too formal.⁣
⁣
For Marina & Kosta’s wedding, the goal was to make the reception feel like a garden had quietly taken over the hall. We designed lush arrangements in peach, cream, and fresh greens that felt natural and abundant on the tables. Against the warm tones of the room and the glow of candlelight, the flowers softened the space and made the entire evening feel relaxed, welcoming, and full of life.⁣
