Modern Oxon Hill Wedding

This past September we were delighted to be a part of Stacy and Addisu’s beautiful modern Oxon Hill wedding. It was a gorgeous day, and the perfect weather for the rich shades of pink Stacy chose for her flowers. The bride’s bouquet pair classic garden blooms with a touch of contemporary. The bouquet was designing using pink garden roses and spray roses, clean-lined white cymbidium orchids and pink bouvardia, finished with hanging green amaranthus. The overall feel of their flowers was classic but yet modern, a look that both complemented and updated the feel of the venue. The real show stopper here, though, was the cake – an ombre design of roses in shades of pink, ranging from very pale pink to hot pink, cascaded dramatically down the side of the five tiered cake. A stunning choice for a modern Oxon Hill wedding.

Did you know that baby’s breath can be a showstopper all on its own? 🌟

At Meaghan & David’s Willard Hotel wedding, we used this delicate bloom to create everything from airy, elevated centerpieces to rings of the tiny flowers to circle candles and lush runners on the head table. The result? A look that’s both ethereal and elegant, proving that baby’s breath can be more than just a filler flower. It’s a versatile, often budget-friendly option that brings a soft, romantic vibe to any wedding. Who’s ready to fall in love with this understated beauty? 😍

Backyard weddings come with charm built in. Intimacy, laughter, the feeling of home. And flowers should be designed to meet that atmosphere! For Kristel & Jordan`s celebration, we leaned into their pastel floral palette paired with texture, and movement, keeping the palette playful but elevated. The result was a design that felt one-of-a-kind, deeply personal, and still refined. It’s proof that whether it’s a ballroom or a backyard, thoughtful floral design always sets the tone for the experience.⁣

Candlelight does something flowers can’t do on their own: it shifts the entire atmosphere. At Capitol View at 400, the skyline is already a showstopper, so we kept the florals for Rachael & Andrew`s wedding refined and layered, then added candlelight to transform the tables after dark. The flicker reflects off petals, glassware, and linens, making every detail feel more intentional. Especially in fall, when evenings arrive earlier, candles extend the life of the flowers and create a sense of intimacy that photographs beautifully.⁣

Moody palettes don’t have to wait for October. For Alexandra & Sam’s spring wedding at St. Francis Hall, we built the design on deep burgundy roses, moody mauves and deep plum fritillaria, the last a flower uniquely available in early spring. To keep the look from tipping too dark, we layered in Sahara Sensation spray roses, peach stock, and quince branches for lightness and movement. Loose and airy aisle pieces added whimsy, while a deconstructed arch and gold-rimmed candles brought romance. The result was dramatic without ever feeling heavy. Romantic, fresh, and unmistakably spring.

The secret to great floral design? Continuity, not duplication. For Natalie & Lawrence’s Woodend wedding, we reimagined the ceremony arch as a backdrop for their sweetheart table, then echoed the palette across cake florals and centerpieces. Each piece was distinct, but the entire celebration felt connected. That’s the balance we aim for: designs that don’t compete for attention, but work together to create a cohesive experience from vows to last dance.⁣

The National Museum of Women in the Arts is always a stunning canvas, and we’ve had the joy of designing there many times. For Lucas & Jerry, we embraced a chic monochromatic palette of white florals, branches and candlelight to complement the artwork and architecture. The result was timeless, elegant, and deeply personal, especially with the sweet nods to their beloved pup woven throughout the day. 🤍✨⁣
