Romantic Lavender Hotel Monaco DC Wedding Flowers

Romantic Hotel Monaco DC Wedding Flowers for a Spring Celebration

Hannah & Mike’s springtime wedding at the Hotel Monaco Washington DC was a beautiful study in soft lavender and honey tones, an effortlessly romantic palette that felt fresh and refined in this iconic space. The couple envisioned floral details that were textured and garden-inspired, with an overall tailored look. From the suspended chuppah to the statement rotunda installation and lush tablescapes, their wedding flowers brought a layered sense of romance to every part of the day.

Set in Penn Quarter, the Hotel Monaco is one of DC’s most unique wedding venues. A former 19th-century post office building has now transformed into a bold and stylish boutique hotel. Its elegant Paris Ballroom and striking marble-columned architecture offer a rich backdrop for wedding celebrations. For Hannah & Mike’s wedding, we leaned into the building’s historic charm while adding an abundance of fresh floral elements to soften and elevate the space.

Guests were greeted in the Paris Ballroom by a stunning mid-height Destiny Urn overflowing with roses in soft lavender hues, trailing clematis vine, jasmine foliage, and lavender stock. This arrangement set the tone: romantic, garden-inspired, and full of texture.

The ceremony itself featured a suspended chuppah in white fabric, an airy, modern focal point softened with lush foliage. A dramatic smilax installation climbed the rotunda columns, adding a natural, whimsical element to the grandeur of the space.

Of course, Hotel Monaco DC wedding flowers wouldn’t be complete without the bridal bouquet. Hannah carried an elegant French hand-tied bouquet embraced spring flowers – white peonies, Cool Water and Ocean Song lavender roses, white peonies, pale pink Sweet Escimo roses, purple veronica, and eucalyptus, the perfect balance of tailored and textured. Her bridesmaids and junior bridesmaids carried similar lavender and white bouquets for a cohesive look.

Reception tables featured a mix of table centerpiece designs. Half showcased lush compote centerpieces with lavender lilac, Amnesia and Golden Mustard roses, butterfly ranunculus, lavender stock, blush rice flower, white ranunculus and lavender sweet peas — each surrounded by honey-hued rope taper candles in glass hurricanes. The other tables offered an airy, editorial vibe with bud vases in lavender and honey tones, accented by ribbed glass chimneys for taper candles, bathing the table in candlelight.

Hannah and Mike’s day was a celebration of love and light, with Hotel Monaco DC wedding flowers that captured every joyful moment in soft, romantic color.

Not every couple is lucky enough to wake up to the perfect weather for their perfect outdoor ceremony. But that is not reason to fret! Somtimes the plan shifts. Laura & Ben`s outdoor ceremony at the Omni Shoreham moved inside at the last moment, and it turned out to be perfect all the same. We built a custom chuppah to frame their nuptials, overlaid with branches and flowers to echo a natural garden arbor. Swipe to see more of what made this one of our favorite spring weddings! (And they still managed to sneak in a few outdoor photos. 😉)⁣

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!

There’s a reason the garden aesthetic endures. Sydney & Adam’s Omni Shoreham wedding proved that abundance doesn’t mean excess. It’s about balance. Layers of red, peach, and champagne tones brought warmth to the Palladian Room’s formality, while trailing jasmine and geranium softened its edges.⁣

We often talk about ‘garden style’ as if it’s effortless, but true ease comes from intention, that blend of movement, proportion, restraint. Here, that translated into florals that felt alive within the space, grounded yet romantic.⁣
A study in color, texture, and timing. The kind of classic that never fades.⁣

Dreaming of a wedding that’s equal parts classic and chic? Take a cue from Meaghan & David’s stunning celebration at the Willard Hotel! 🌿✨ ⁣

Imagine walking down a candlelit ceremony aisle lined with delicate petals, followed by a reception where the Crystal Ballroom transforms into a floral wonderland. Tall centerpieces of baby’s breath creating a cloud-like effect, alternating tables adorned with rings of baby`s breath circling white pillar candles, and a dramatic runner of baby`s breath and cnadles going down the length of the head table. Meaghan & David`s wedding was the epitome of romance. ⁣

If you’re envisioning a day that’s timeless, elegant, and utterly romantic, let’s make it happen together! 💫⁣

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.
