First and foremost, weddings are occasions to celebrate the love that two people have for each other and the commitment they want to make, notably in front of their nearest and dearest. The décor and details are wonderful accents meant to represent the personality and tastes of the marrying pair. We love nuptials of all shapes, sizes, and varieties – and this goes for couples themselves as well. In honor of June being National Pride Month, we wanted to share some same sex wedding inspiration. Each wedding is a unique as the couples themselves. From intimate events to grand parties, these same sex couples each designed elements that reflected their personalities. Enjoy the three events below!
Forest-Inspired Wedding
A soothing palette of greens served as the grounding backdrop of Mitch and Patrick’s nuptials. Woodend provided an apt setting for their forest-inspired wedding, which embraced the best of autumn with rich reds, yellows and oranges with maidenhair fern.

Romantic Blush and Burgundy at Hummingbird
On a bright February day, Taylor and Melia recited their vows at an intimate wedding at Hummingbird Restaurant in Old Town Alexandria. Their floral palette feature a romantic mix of feather light pink and burgundy astilbe, blush roses, white stock, and burgundy ranunculus finished with soft touches of eucalyptus foliage. An elegant napkin detail of ruscus foliage finished the each place setting at the reception.

Modern Blue at Westin Georgetown
We love a wedding with modern sensibilities and clean lines, and Aaron and JaRel’s wedding at the Westin Georgetown was just that. From the stylish attire to the modern blue wedding reception, the wedding radiated a masculine glamour.
