Spring Archer Hotel Wedding

Spring Archer Hotel Wedding

There is no place in Alexandria more perfect for a small, intimate wedding than the gorgeous Archer Hotel, formerly the Lorien (except perhaps for perhaps fellow Alexandria boutique hotel – the Morrison House!). Yoko and Marc began their spring Archer Hotel wedding with nuptials downtown at the historic St. Matthews Cathedral in DC, before retiring to our equally historic city of Alexandria, for the reception.

For their flowers, Yoko chose a light spring color palette of whites, greens and pale pinks. In keeping with the spring colors, we suggested using spring flowers like lilac, sweet pea, ranunculus and tulips, accented with touches of classic flowers like roses for a touch of pink, for her bouquet.

For the reception, simple square glass vases, lined on the inside with green aspidistra leaf, were filled with white hydrangea, green parrot tulips, white ranunculus, green cabbage roses and white lilac. It was the perfect choice for a spring, Archer Hotel wedding.

When greenery steals the show! 🌿

Every detail of Nathan & Jacob’s wedding was transformed with deep green foliage, and we’re here for it! Tall and low centerpieces packed with mountain laurel, fern and more created dynamic visuals for both ceremony and reception, rich green pocket squares with touches of thistle added texture to their wedding day style. Pair greens with metallics (gold, anyone?) for a luxe look that’s totally unique.

What goes up, must come down. Our team spent a solid week of getting up on ladders, hanging wreaths, fluffing garland, and placing oversized bows to get nine local restaurants holiday ready… and now it ends. Every garland gets boxed and labeled. Every ornament tucked back in its place and each wreath finding a new home - until next year. It seems almost sad to put away the holiday decor, but ready for the next bit of sparkle & shine!

Do you recognize any of the places we added a touch of holiday magic? Sound off below!
