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.

Pastels are having a moment, but the *real* magic is in the pairing. For Clara & John’s wedding at DAR, soft, romantic blooms were styled alongside timeless Chinoiserie details, creating a look that was equal parts elegant and unexpected.
Layering florals with statement vessels and pattern play brings depth to your tablescape and keeps your design feeling editorial and intentional from start to finish.

Black taper candles, white pumpkins, rust-toned bunny tails, and fall foliages were just a few of the stellar details that made Ashley & Brett’s wedding at the Hotel Monaco a total VIBE! 🍂

Framing a space can be just as impactful as filling it.

At Hotel Monaco, drama lives in the details. Soaring columns, bold architecture, quirky design. For Hannah & Mike’s wedding, we wrapped lush smilax around the columns to emphasize the room’s grandeur, and suspended the chuppah canopy between them. Designed in soft lavender and honey tones, the floral palette added warmth and softness to the ballroom’s rich interiors. Honey-hued rope taper candles added a textural glow around the base of each design.

Sometimes, it’s about how you place the flowers, not just which ones you choose.
