Rustic Wedding at Woodend

Rustic Wedding at Woodend

Amber and Micah’s rustic wedding at Woodend, just outside Washington, DC, was a beautiful, bohemian celebration of love with rustic floral details throughout. For their simple outdoor ceremony, Amber carried an elegant, French hand-tied bouquet in a classic but ethereal palette of white, accented with touches of purple, lavender and green. Lavender scabiosa, purple stock, and lavender peeked out from a spray of Queen Anne’s lace and was finished with seeded eucalyptus and Italian ruscus foliage, wrapped in a rustic twine, for a natural and organic feel.  Amber’s bridesmaids carried complementary bouquets for a cohesive and delicate look. Micah’s boutonnière featured a simple burst of lavender accented with seeded eucalyptus, while the remaining boutonnières were designed from a clutch of baby’s breath.

Ceremony in the Grove

A bountiful swag of wedding flowers in purple, white and green adorned the gorgeous welcome sign as guests arrived for the Woodend Sanctuary wedding.

Woodend Tented Reception

To highlight Woodend Sanctuary’s stunning fireplace, we added a long and low design showcasing a length of lemon leaf and ruscus garland accented with Queen Anne’s lace, purple larkspur, white and purple stock, and lavender scabiosa. Additional garlands were featured elsewhere in the reception, bringing even more organic beauty to the event. Amber’s and Micah’s reception was a warm and welcoming gathering, and seating guests at farm tables was the perfect arrangement. Each of the farm tables were graced with an elegant, deep green lemon leaf and ruscus garland, loosely accented with touches of stock and scabiosa in shades of purple, lavender and white. Another lush lemon leaf and Italian ruscus garland was draped over the happy couple’s head table and finished with sparing touches of stock and scabiosa in whites, lavenders and purples.

Congratulations to Amber and Micah on their exquisite wedding day and their wonderful marriage as well!

Theres something about September that always feels like a turning point. The days are still warm, but the morning is a bit cooler. School is back in session. The light starts to change. And after a long DC summer, you do all get that first day when you can open the door and think, yes, fall really is coming. 🍁 

For me fall has always been tied to the rhythm of the school year. Kids going back to school and calendars filling up. Pulling sweaters out of the back of the closet, and thinking about Halloween before you’re quite ready to admit summer is over. 

In the studio, autumn has another rhythm. September and October weddings - arguably our busiest time of the year - paired with all sorts of fun things. Pods, berries, grasses and all sorts of funky things. 

I think there’s a reason fall weddings always feel so right. It’s a season built around change. The landscape shifts, the light softens, the year begins winding down… and in the midst of that, two people choose to begin something. 

Maybe that’s what I love about this time of year. Autumn can feel nostalgic and hopeful at the same time. So here’s to another fall wedding season, changing leaves, cooler nights (no mosquitoes), celebrations and all the new beginnings still ahead.
Classic roses. Ethereal baby’s breath. And bleached ruscus for some fashion forward style. Classic with an edge.
