Newseum Washington DC Wedding

Newseum Washington DC Wedding

By far one of the most special things that happens for us is to work with families again and again – and this was the case for Annie and Josh for their Newseum Washington DC wedding. Having previously provided flowers for Michelle’s Westin Georgetown wedding in 2012, it was a heartwarming experience to craft floral magic once again for her sister’s special day at the Newseum last fall.

Annie and Josh exchanged vows in the unique ambiance of the Newseum’s Knight Conference Center, a departure from traditional venues but a perfect match for their contemporary vision. The October weather set the scene for exquisite terrace photos, capturing the essence of fall, followed by an evening of dancing and celebration surrounded by cherished friends and family.

The floral palette embraced the warmth of fall with a mix of what we fondly term “fall neutral.” Featuring garden roses, dahlias, calla lilies, peach stock, and subtle silver accents of dusty miller and brunea pods, the style was a harmonious blend of texture and sophistication.

For the chuppah, simple yet elegant bamboo poles adorned with designs of white hydrangea, ivory roses, peach and white stock, white dendrobium orchids, and hints of dusty miller foliage and silver brunea pods at the top corners created a stunning focal point.

This delightful floral palette seamlessly transitioned into the reception. Incorporating a touch of modern flair, white glass cylinder vases showcased a textured arrangement of white hydrangea, white and peach stock, ivory and champagne roses, ivory spray roses, white lisianthus, and white dahlias. Silver dusty miller and silver brunea pods added a sophisticated finishing touch.

Annie and Josh’s Newseum wedding was a testament to the beauty of blending modernity with timeless elegance. If you’re envisioning a Washington DC wedding that combines unique venues, stunning florals, and a touch of contemporary charm, the Newseum is the perfect backdrop for your unforgettable celebration.

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.

A night of mystery and masquerade — and the perfect way to fête the 10th anniversary of The Scout Guide Alexandria and the launch of Vol. 10! ✨

We loved adding our signature touch of floral drama to this year’s launch party at the Hotel Heron. From a moody and dramatic entrance piece to a flower-filled car, sculptural arrangements on cocktail tables and elevated bar arrangements casting feathered shadows and moody textures, this event let us play in a world of whimsy and wonder.

We’re proud to be part of a guide that champions small businesses and celebrates creativity in our community. Supporting local means investing in the makers, doers, and dreamers who make Alexandria vibrant — and The Scout Guide does just that, beautifully. Cheers to Vol. 10! Special thanks to Sarah and Claire for always being so supportive and encouraging.
