Three Micro Weddings to Make You Swoon

Three Micro Weddings to Make You Swoon

We delight in our small weddings just as much as the large. Even though these three spring micro weddings were small, they certainly packed a punch in style!

Tabard Inn

Rebecca and Matt’s wedding at the Tabard Inn in Washington, DC had some beautiful off-beat elements – a small ceremony, a brunch reception, a short wedding dress from Etsy [with a pink petticoat!], and freshly baked donuts instead of a cake. When it comes to micro wedding, we love the Tabard Inn. Located in Dupont Circle, the venue boasts an eclectic yet refined atmosphere and is perfect for anyone seeking a European-style oasis on American soil. Using the private event space on the second floor of the Inn, their intimate dinner party featured one long table with designs of green-white parrot tulips, light pink ranunculus, green hypericum berries, and green hydrangea. Rebecca carried a charming bouquet of spring flowers in white and green with a pop of light pink ranunculus. Her bridesmaid carried a bouquet of similar blooms in pink. And to finish Matt’s stylish seersucker suit, he wore a white cymbidium orchid boutonniere.

Alexandria Athenaeum

When it comes to micro weddings in Old Town Alexandria, the Athenaeum’s greek revival building can’t be beat for uniqueness. The Athenaeum is a gallery of fine arts and a performance venue in Alexandria, Virginia, United States. It has also been home to the Northern Virginia Fine Arts Association since 1964. Deanna and Mike’s wedding featured many of our spring favorites – anemone, viburnum, hyacinth, ranunculus and tulips. The It was complete chance that the art in the space that week was floral in nature, but the floral prints in the background really made the ceremony.

Archer Hotel

Hotels aren’t often a first choice for micro weddings, but the boom in boutique hotels has helped to fix that. Lauren and Joe’s micro wedding at the Archer Hotel, formerly the Lorien Hotel. featured a beautiful red-black-and-white motif. The Archer Hotel is situated in the heart of Old Town Alexandria. From rooftop spaces to private terraces, the property is a great spot for a small guest count. Lauren carried a classic white bouquet that included lily of the valley, a flower that was particularly special to her, with her shoes bringing in a festive pop of red! We used a motif from their invitation to create a custom wrap around the centerpiece vases, each of which held a monochromatic design of red roses.

Love in full bloom - rain and all ☔️ ✨ 

Tamari & Zach embraced the romance of a rainy day ceremony at the historic Tudor Place, saying “I do” beneath clear umbrellas. Then they celebrated in the cozy, intimate setting of the Tabard Inn - with a warm floral palette of corals and oranges, the dreamiest Cafe au Lait dahlias, and proof that a little rain only adds to the magic.

G is for greenery 🌿, L is for lush ✨… you get the idea! 

When it comes to statement-making florals, a well-placed garland can do it all—elevate long tables, frame a ceremony aisle, or even drape around a fountain for that effortlessly chic look. Who said greenery was just filler? 💅

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
