Sophisticated Westin Georgetown Wedding

Sophisticated Westin Georgetown Wedding

The Westin Georgetown was the perfect setting for Juliet and Daniel’s vision of a modern wedding in cool whites, shades of purples and bright lime greens. The sophisticated Westin Georgetown wedding featured clean lines and lots of glass to make the crisp, modern statepemtn. Juliet’s bouquet featured the best of summer – white roses, lisianthus and dahlia accented with lavender roses, purple stock, and green hypericum berries. The bridesmaids’ bouquets featured roses, lisianthus and stock in shades of purple accented with touches of white freesia and green berries. In keeping with the overall white palette of Juliet’s bouquet, Daniel wore an ivory rose. The rest of the men wore lavender roses for their boutonnieres.

The ceremony for this sophisticated Westin Georgetown wedding took place in the elegant, enclosed courtyard, with the chuppah placed at the far end to create a long and stately aisle. The chuppah, designed from an elegant silk crepe de chine fabric, featured an open design with A-line sleeves on each pole. The two front corners were accented with lush posies of purple hydrangea, orchids, and roses, white stock, and green hypericum berries accented with lemon leaf foliage.

The chuppah posies were repurposed on the escort card table following the ceremony. A mix of tall and low centerpiece designs alternated across the room of plum and lavender linens. On half the tables, a dramatic display of lavender, purple and green dendrobium orchids were elevated on glass pilsner-style vases. On the remaining tables, a square glass vase wrapped in a green leaf held a lush design of hydrangea, roses, stock, and lisianthus is shades of purple and white accented with green hypericum berries.

Is there anything better than a museum for a wedding? Asking for a friend…

Classic with a fall twist! Touches of blush, dark brown hues of magnolia and nine bark, plus a touch of “colonial blue” to befit the setting. Perfection.

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.
