Shop Update: How to Shop Safely

How to Shop Safely for Flowers

There are two easy ways to shop safely for flowers, gifts and daily delivery arrangements with us:

give us a call for a virtual shopping appointment, or
we invite you to shop via our webstore.

We are able to accommodate a very small number of visitors at this time, but will do our best! We are delighted to have participated in the ALX Promise program, which means that we have been trained and have committed to higher safety standards for employees and customers than the minimum rules required by law for all businesses.

Important things to know if you decide to visit the shop in person.

Per VA law and City of Alexandria Health Department requirements, all customers must wear a mask. If you are unable or unwilling to wear a mask, you invite you to shop with us online or by phone. We are unable to allow you to enter without a mask.

Visitors will be required to:

Wash or sanitize hands upon entry.
Maximum one customer permitted in the shop at a time. We will sanitize between each customer.
Please maintain six feet of distance from our staff.
We are unable to take cash payments right now. If you order by phone or online, payment will be taken care of ahead of time. We can arrangement for curbside pick up if you wish to pick up your order in person.
Our meeting area is closed.

For wedding consultations, we continue to conduct those by phone or zoom. We appreciate your understanding as we maneuver a host of new rules to keep us and everyone safe. We hope to help everyone shop safely.

There is something especially beautiful about bringing soft garden flowers into a space like St. Francis Hall. The historic stone walls have a certain weight to them, and loose, romantic florals create a lovely contrast that keeps the room from feeling too formal.⁣

For Marina & Kosta’s wedding, the goal was to make the reception feel like a garden had quietly taken over the hall. We designed lush arrangements in peach, cream, and fresh greens that felt natural and abundant on the tables. Against the warm tones of the room and the glow of candlelight, the flowers softened the space and made the entire evening feel relaxed, welcoming, and full of life.⁣

Easter may fall at a different time every year, but one thing`s for sure, once it passes, wedding season is officially HERE! We couldn`t be more excited for the beautiful weddings, galas, and celebrations coming up this month. And spring flowers? Absolute favorites. Always⁣

Blooming branches – that harbinger of new beginnings, a flower whose very appearance serves as the epitaph to winter. But that sweet symbolism isn’t the only reason we love them!

Very few botanical elements feature both soft edges AND the jutting architecture of flowering branches. As floral designers, we adore the juxtaposition of soft, demure pastels with their sheer height and commanding presence. There’s just something about that that just screams wedding, don’t you think?

So don’t be afraid to branch out and get creative. Blooming branches look spectacular in weddings – in everything from ceremony arches to reception decor – and create a big impactful look.
