Spring Whittemore House Wedding

Spring Whittemore House Wedding

As the cherry blossoms painted the city in soft pastels, the Whittemore House provided the perfect backdrop for Sarah and Aaron’s nuptials. Their delightful spring celebration in Washington, DC will fill your heart with with inspiration and joy.

Whittemore House is a historic building located at 1526 New Hampshire Avenue, NW in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC. The building stands as a testament to the city’s rich history. A former private residence to musicians, several politicians, and a mountain explorer, the building now serves as the headquarters of the Women’s National Democratic Club. Its stately charm and lush surroundings create an idyllic setting for a spring wedding. The elegant interiors, complemented by the abundance of natural light, provided a warm and inviting atmosphere for Sarah and Aaron’s celebration.

The infusion of vibrant pinks, a hallmark of spring, added a touch of romance to this already charming affair. From delicate floral arrangements to the bridesmaids’ bouquets, every detail exuded the freshness of the season. Sarah’s bouquet featured soft peach Juliet garden roses, orange ranunculus, peach stock, peach roses, and wisps of gray dusty miller foliage. The soft pastel hues contrasted beautifully with the bridesmaids’ vibrant coral dresses.

Hair? Done. Makeup? Glowing. Bouquet?

A dream in toffee and white. And when the champagne tower hits just right? That’s the Petal’s Edge touch. 🍾💐

From behind-the-scenes to final frame, this shoot was full of joy, movement, and flower-filled magic. Because designing moments that feel as good as they look? That’s kind of our thing.

Sun-drenched florals, bold texture, and one unforgettable chuppah moment.

For Aliza & Alex’s summer celebration at Oxon Hill Manor, we went full color-forward. Coral peonies were the undeniable star. Paired with wildflower-inspired details like daisies, snapdragons, freesia, and even herbs, the floral design struck that perfect balance between luxe and lighthearted.

From the birch pole chuppah trailing with blooms to vibrant, garden-style centerpieces, this tented affair radiated joyful energy - proof that color can absolutely be elevated!

A ceremony space that proves minimal can still be magical. 🌿✨

Amanda & Matthew exchanged vows beneath a ceiling accented with smilax and twinkle lights, and a backdrop of Italian ruscus. Two wine barrels grounded the scene, each topped with loose, organic arrangements in soft winter whites and lush greens. So perfectly at home in this modern winery space!

Simple. Airy. Effortlessly romantic. Just how we like it.
