Rustic Wedding at River View

Courtney and William’s rustic wedding at River View at Occoquan was an absolute delight to be a part of. Every detail, from the beautiful tones of burgundy and blush to the charming rustic accents, came together seamlessly. We couldn’t have been happier working with such a stunning fall palette.

For Courtney’s elegant bridal bouquet, we carefully selected a blend of Cafe au Lait dahlias, burgundy dahlias, Quicksand roses, ivory spray roses, burgundy and white scabiosa, and burgundy astilbe. To add a touch of greenery, we incorporated succulents, and for the finishing touches, we added dusty miller and seeded eucalyptus foliage. The bouquet was a breathtaking reflection of Courtney’s sophisticated style.

The bridesmaids’ bouquets were equally enchanting, designed to complement the bridal bouquet. Each lush, French hand-tied bouquet showcased roses, spray roses, dahlias, and scabiosa in neutral hues, accented with dusty miller and seeded eucalyptus foliage. The result was a cohesive and captivating floral arrangement that perfectly matched the rustic charm of the wedding.

William’s boutonnière featured a burgundy spray rose, complemented by burgundy astilbe and seeded eucalyptus. The remaining boutonnières were created with ivory spray roses and seeded eucalyptus, adding a touch of elegance to the groom and groomsmen’s attire.

The ceremony took center stage with a striking focal point—an arch adorned with an elegant garland of seeded eucalyptus, draped across the top and trailing down the sides. The garland featured a stunning array of burgundy and Cafe au Lait dahlias, ivory spray roses, and Black Magic and Quicksand roses. The rustic beauty of the garland perfectly framed the couple as they exchanged their vows.

At the reception, gold, geometric terrariums graced the center of half the guest tables. These enchanting terrariums contained a bed of moss, from which bloomed a natural and organic design of burgundy scabiosa, ivory spray roses, dusty miller, and seeded eucalyptus. Delicate touches of jasmine vine and seeded eucalyptus added a whimsical touch. The remaining guest tables were adorned with classic, gold-trimmed vases, each holding a bridesmaid’s bouquet, creating a cohesive and elegant ambiance throughout the reception.

Courtney and William’s rustic wedding at River View at Occoquan still brings a smile to our faces. We hope the happiness and beauty of their special day continues to bloom for a lifetime. If you’re planning your own rustic wedding, let us create a floral wonderland that captures the essence of your love story.

Our story is rooted in horticulture, art, and a genuine love of design. Over the years, the scale of our weddings has grown, but our philosophy remains the same: florals should create mood, evoke emotion, and transform a space into something unforgettable. 🌸

That devotion carries through every detail, from climbing ladders to lighting candles to suspending blooms overhead. For Emily and Will’s wedding at Potomac View Terrace, that meant classic pink and white garden flowers, golden terrariums glowing with candlelight, and a canopy of suspended blooms with glass globes above the head table. Romantic, timeless, and a reflection of why we do what we do. ✨ 

As we begin a new season, we cannot wait to bring more love stories to life. If you are planning your wedding, now is the time to start dreaming with us. 💐
