Modern Yellow Wedding

Emily and Mark hosted an intimate winter wedding at the Carnegie Institute. Warm shades of yellow brightened up what was otherwise a typical, December day. Emily carried a bridal bouquet of beautiful white and ivory peonies, roses, ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, and mini-calla lilies. Mark’s boutonniere featured a sleek and streamlined white mini-calla lily, while the rest of the men wore white ranunculus blossoms and smaller spray roses for the ring bearers.

Ceremony in the Rotunda

The ceremony took place in the stately rotunda. A simple white-poled chuppah provided the focal point for the ceremony. Each pole was seated in a white planter box filled with a lush design of hydrangea, stock, roses, and spray roses in shades of white and yellow. The couple’s tallit served as the canopy over the structure.

Elegant Yellow and Grey Wedding Palette

Elegant, long tables dressed in a beautiful gray and white patterned linen extended the length of the ballroom in three rows for the modern yellow wedding. Two rows featured a collection of white vases of varying heights, each with monobotanic designs in shades of yellow. The vases were interspersed with sleek, glass vases with a white phalaenopsis orchid stem. On the center table, the collection of flowers was further filled in with a lush bank of hydrangea, stock, roses, and spray roses.

A rooftop celebration that proves timeless can still be bold. For Elaine & Trey’s wedding at Capitol View at 400, we leaned into classic green and white, but elevated it with sculptural greenery installations, gold Harlow stands, and skyline views that stretched for miles. A ceiling of foliage softened the tented space, while sleek black bridesmaid dresses added contrast and edge. Clean, refined, and impossibly romantic.

It’s Bike to Work Day — and while we usually pedal toward petals, we couldn’t resist sharing this creative twist from Elle & Bryan, one of our couples who wheeled their love of cycling straight into the ceremony. 🚲✨ 

Elle & Bryan’s wedding at Dumbarton House was full of charm, personal touches, and one especially fun nod to their love of cycling. Bicycle wheels became sculptural backdrops, proving that when it comes to personal touches, there’s no such thing as too niche.

Designing florals around unexpected objects? That’s our lane. And yes — it was all uphill in the best possible way.
