Lavender Wedding at The Alexandrian Hotel

Lavender Wedding at The Alexandrian Hotel

Dusty purples and ivories held the day for Jamie and Tim’s elegant spring wedding. They started their day with portraits at the monuments, and aren’t they just grand! Check out that amazing sky behind the group with the Washington Monument in the distance. Their story was also featured on WUSA9!

Jamie’s bouquet featured such a stunning mix of white peonies, lavender roses, spray roses, lisianthus, lilac and sweet pea accented with blue mascara and bright green touches of lady’s mantle. The bridesmaids’ bouquets featured roses, spray roses, stock, and lisianthus in shades of white and ivory, while the groom and groomsmen wore ivory roses.

The ceremony took place in the Alexandrian Hotel courtyard. Two lush designs of hydrangea, roses, spray roses, lisianthus, stock, and lilac flanked the couple, creating a focal point for the ceremony.

Centered on each of the tables for the reception was a black lantern encircled with a wreath of flowers. With hydrangea, roses, stock, and lilac in shades of purple and white for the bulk of the design, the accent of lady’s mantle provided looseness and texture. A mix of wedding flowers crowned the top of the tiny cake. We love seeing the ceremony arrangements on either side of the bride and groom’s sweetheart table!

Annual reminder, because winter is coming: winter weddings don’t have to be white. ❄️

Three color stories we’re loving this season:
🤍 Icy winter + candlelight
🍷 Burgundy, plum & wine (goodbye, traditional red)
✨ White, gold & metallics

Which one are you? I have opinions — tell me below. 👀
