Rustic Mauve Hendry House Wedding

Rustic Mauve Hendry House Wedding

If ever there was an “it” color scheme last year, this was it. Mauve… that gorgeous, muted shade of pale purple with tinges of gray. Not too bold, not too pink, not quite pastel and not too purple. It’s an elegant and romantic color, and perfectly suited to the rustic mauve Hendry House wedding Sarah and Shane had in mind. While Sarah and Shane had a spring wedding in mind when they began their planning, despite rescheduling to fall, their floral palette was completely available for their new date, and a perfect wedding date remained.

We created a floral palette to compliment the casual and rustic vision for the wedding using a mix of white, blush, pink, and mauve blooms rounded out with grays and green. Amnesia roses and mauve astrantia were complemented with pale pink Sweet Eskimo roses, light pink astilbe and white anemone for striking contrast. Plenty of dusty miller and eucalyptus foliage lent the casual and rustic touch to the rustic mauve Hendry House wedding. Sarah’s bouquet in particular stood out with luscious Cafe au Lait dahlia, while Shane’s boutonniere featured a small succulent. The neutral tones in the rustic Hendry House wedding palette let the soft tones of the bridesmaids’ dresses stand out.

To capture the rustic wedding vision, we birch poles for the otherwise simple, striking chuppah. Simple mason jars held pouf of light pink hydrangea, the only color for the ceremony.

Rustic farm tables were laid with burlap table runners and set with an eclectic mix of milk glass, rustic cans, depression glass, mercury glass and mason jars. For the rustic mauve Hendry House wedding, the containers each held lush designs of wedding flowers ranging from delicate astilbe and astrantia, wispy baby’s breath, and gardeny roses, stock, and foliage. A sprig of ruscus finished each place setting.

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. 🌿💐
Forget “Something Borrowed’. Seriously - have you ever seen such a stunning and tasteful incorporation of blue tones in a wedding? We brought a playful twist on “Something Blue’ into Wendy & Erik’s wedding day at @willard_intercontinentaldc With touches of blue Chinoiserie vases, not to mention other blue touches like ribbons and bridesmaid dresses, the blush and ivory floral palette of all blended perfectly together! Cheers to a beautiful day as magnificent as the happy couple!

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.
