Romantic Capitol View at 400 Wedding

Twinkle lights cast a magical glow for Capitol View at 400 wedding

Texture and romantic burgundy tones abound in Rachel and Andrew’s romantic Capitol View at 400 wedding! We are excited to share the classic rooftop affair at this timeless Washington, DC wedding venue.

Rachel and Andrew were married in front of close friends and family on a beautiful fall day. Rachel and her bridesmaids both carried richly textured bouquets featuring the best of fall – dahlias, roses, garden roses, astilbe, and astrantia in burgundies and whites finished with eucalyptus foliages. Classic rose boutonnieres graced the men’s lapels.

Strands of eucalyptus accented the welcome mirror that greeted guests as they arrived, and put a finishing touch to candles along the walkway. Flanked by two stunning and organic designs atop pedestals, and bridesmaids in rich burgundy gowns the pair exchanged vows in front of close friends and family. The two lush designs featured a rich array of lemon leaf, eucalyptus, rustics, camellia and myrtle foliages.

We love the metallic accents that accompanied the elegant decor of the romantic Capitol View at 400 wedding reception. Gold cylinder vases were filled with hydrangea and roses in white with rich burgundy coming through in roses, dahlias, safari sunset and astilbe. Burgundy taper candles set in gold candlesticks and accompanied by glass enclosed pillar candles and ringed by eucalyptus foliage were on the remaining tables.

It was a pleasure bringing Rachel and Andrew’s fall wedding vision to life!

Let me go on record saying: when it comes to candles, especially in winter, more is more. 😉

Alexa, please play Christmas music. 

Too early? I confess. I’m a Thanksgiving purist. It’s literally my favorite holiday. But as a floral designer, I’m often living a season ahead. Thinking of spring when it’s winter, or fall in the heat of summer. And yes, plotting winter holiday decor when it’s Halloween (if not the 4th of July!)

But something about the quiet in the air today and news of snow in places nearby is all it took to awaken my holiday spirit and launch holiday planning mode! If it takes you more to get you in the mood, maybe Sonja & Mike’s Christmas wedding from a few years ago will do the trick!

The season for sparkle begins. ✨ From Thanksgiving dinners to New Year’s soirées, November is when party plans come to life — and our design calendar shifts from bouquets to ballrooms.

Our installation at the Watergate Hotel mixed metallics and white roses in sculptural form - proof that holiday design can be both organic and glamorous. Because at its core, festivity is about transformation: turning a space into a feeling, a table into a gathering, and light into warmth.
We're Pinteresting!
