River Bend Country Club Wedding

Love filled the air as classic elegance met timeless beauty for Kelly and Ross’ River Bend Country Club wedding. Kelly’s floral vision was clear: classy, classic, streamlined, and undeniably pretty. We poured our creativity into every detail, ensuring that the blooms would be the epitome of timeless elegance.

Kelly’s bouquet was a symbol of pure sophistication: an elegant French hand-tied masterpiece in classic whites and greens. Ivory garden roses, white roses, ivory spray roses, white stock, and white lisianthus joined dusty miller, eucalyptus, and Italian ruscus foliages for texture. The bouquet was complemented by the delicate ivory double-faced satin ribbon that wrapped around the stems. The bridesmaids carried lush, French hand-tied bouquets inspired by the bride’s accessory. These beautiful bouquets featured white roses, white lisianthus, seeded and silver dollar eucalyptus, and ruscus foliage. The emphasis was on abundant greenery, creating a simpler, smaller version of the bridal bouquet. Dusty blue satin ribbon gracefully wrapped the stems, adding a touch of charm and color.

The ceremony space radiated grace with a traditional U-shaped arch serving as a stunning focal point. Adorned with smilax, lemon leaf, and ruscus foliage, the arch came to life with the addition of white hydrangea, white roses, and ivory spray roses. The ceremony scene was infused with timeless beauty. As guests entered the ceremony area, they were greeted by two elegant altar arrangements atop pedestals. Lush and rounded, these arrangements featured white hydrangea, white stock, ivory roses and spray roses, white lisianthus, and white larkspur. The design was an apt welcome to the elegant event.

Every detail was meticulously planned, including the delightful addition of smilax, eucalyptus and ruscus foliage to the welcome sign. Accents of white roses and ivory spray roses completed the enchanting design.

The escort card table boasted a captivating design. A long and low wood-stained planter box was filled with white stock, hybrid delphinium, lisianthus, and roses, accented by camellia, Italian ruscus, and lemon leaf foliage.

Three varying centerpiece designs filled the ballrooms. An elegant glass footed bowl was filled with a textured blend of classic white wedding flowers – hydrangea, stock, roses and spray roses, and lisianthus finished with touches of variegated pittosporum, Italian ruscus, salal, and silver dollar eucalyptus. The mix of foliages added depth and visual interest to the otherwise monochromatic palette of white flowers. Adding height to the room, tall glass pilsner vases were topped with a lush and classic design of white hydrangea, white stock, white roses, ivory spray roses, and white lisianthus, these arrangements added a touch of grandeur. Standing proudly alongside were three glass cylinder vases, each housing a floating candle and three cut-glass votives, casting a romantic glow upon the table. The final design featured a wreath of flowers and foliage encircled a gold-rimmed hurricane. The captivating, classic centerpiece employed white and ivory hydrangea, garden roses, roses, spray roses, lisianthus, stock, and accents of eucalyptus and ruscus foliage.

But really creating the wow moment of the event, the head table featured an elevated design of smilax accented with white roses and ivory spray roses. A garland of lemon leaf foliage proceeded along the length of the table as well, punctuated with touches of white roses, spray roses, lisianthus, and stock. Glass cylinder vases of varying heights, each holding a white pillar candle, added an extra touch of enchantment. To complete the table designs, each place setting featured a sprig of Italian ruscus, adding a touch of natural beauty.

Every corner of this River Bend Country Club wedding radiated with youthful energy and timeless charm. The floral arrangements brought the bride’s vision to life, captivating guests with their beauty and elegance. We were honored to be part of this magical celebration for Kelly and Ross, creating memories at their River Bend Country Club wedding that will last a lifetime.

It was such a pleasure to work with Kelly and Ross and their families to realize their River Bend Country Club wedding. Many wishes for a lifetime of happiness to you!

Theres something about September that always feels like a turning point. The days are still warm, but the morning is a bit cooler. School is back in session. The light starts to change. And after a long DC summer, you do all get that first day when you can open the door and think, yes, fall really is coming. 🍁 

For me fall has always been tied to the rhythm of the school year. Kids going back to school and calendars filling up. Pulling sweaters out of the back of the closet, and thinking about Halloween before you’re quite ready to admit summer is over. 

In the studio, autumn has another rhythm. September and October weddings - arguably our busiest time of the year - paired with all sorts of fun things. Pods, berries, grasses and all sorts of funky things. 

I think there’s a reason fall weddings always feel so right. It’s a season built around change. The landscape shifts, the light softens, the year begins winding down… and in the midst of that, two people choose to begin something. 

Maybe that’s what I love about this time of year. Autumn can feel nostalgic and hopeful at the same time. So here’s to another fall wedding season, changing leaves, cooler nights (no mosquitoes), celebrations and all the new beginnings still ahead.
Classic roses. Ethereal baby’s breath. And bleached ruscus for some fashion forward style. Classic with an edge.
