National Press Club Wedding

It was a great pleasure working with Adrianne and Mitch, and the always wonderful Michelle Taylor, of Michelle Taylor Events for this lovely October evening wedding at the National Press Club in downtown DC.

The details were perfectly aligned with the gorgeous purple, lavender and green flowers! Adrianne carried a bouquet of lavender roses and spray roses, purple lisianthus, stock, and tulips, finished with those gorgeous bi-colored Picasso calla lilies. The bridesmaids bouquets added touches of green cymbidium orchids and hypericum berries for a bight pop of color. Those green orchids made perfect boutonnieres for the guys as well!

The ceremony took place under our elegant silk crepe de chine chuppah, with the tall table centerpieces of spraying dendrobium orchids in purple, lavender and green set upon pillars along the aisle.

The table centerpieces were a mix of high and low designs, with the low centerpieces featuring flowers in shades of purple, lavender and green set in glass square or cylinder vases. For the dramatic escort card table arrangement, a orchid-covered manzanita branch was set in a moss covered base filled with a mound of wedding flowers. It was a gorgeous night!

Oh the places we go! Working inside Folger Shakespeare Library is such a full circle moment for me. I once worked in art museums, so being back in a space like this (now with flowers?!) just makes me so happy. Truly honored to be part of this Friday’s gala 💫 , but in the meantime, here’s a throwback to last year’s event!

Time is not a florist’s friend. From the time this ever so perishable product arrives to when we set things up in meager timelines while dodging people - not to mention waiting for others to finish their part before we can start ours… Let’s just say it’s a challenge, but one we meet head on each week with ingenuity. Planning, pre-planning and even more planning. It’s not always sexy but it gets the job done.

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.⁣
