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.

Anna & Austin’s wedding day was the picture of fresh elegance, with lush white flowers, soft powder blue details, and the most charming lemon accents woven throughout. From the sweet citrus place cards at each setting to the bright, joyful palette, every detail brought a playful sophistication that felt just right for summer. A design that was as fresh as it was timeless.⁣

No, ma’am. That’s not how any of this works…

💐✨ Wedding flower myths? We’ve heard them all. ✨

“You can just reuse the _____ flowers.”
“Faux flowers look the same.”
“Greenery is cheap, right?”

We get it. Planning a wedding comes with a lot of well-meaning advice. But when it comes to flowers, there’s a big difference between a cost-saving hack and a costly mistake.

At Petal’s Edge, we design with intention, experience, and artistry. We’re not here to upsell. We’re here to guide you through what works, what doesn’t, and what’s actually worth it. Because your flowers should feel just as thoughtful as the rest of your wedding. 🌿💐

Designing at River Farm always feels like a breath of fresh air — quite literally! The gardens are already so lush and abundant, so for Caitlin & Sean’s wedding, our goal was to create florals that felt like a natural extension of the landscape. We adorned the existing pergola with a floral installation designed to look as though it had always been blooming there — organic, graceful, and perfectly at home in the garden.⁣

This moment. This backdrop. Nicole & Cina’s wedding ceremony at the Reagan International Trade Building was a masterclass in modern romance. White petals lined the aisle while a copper-painted square arch framed our couple in soft waves of white + green blooms. The final touch? The bride + her bridesmaids perfectly poised beneath the arch—one of those “stop scrolling” moments we’ll never tire of. Timeless, effortless, unforgettable.
