Classic St. Regis Hotel Wedding

Classic St. Regis Hotel Wedding

Bride and groom at the Lincoln Memorial on a rainy wedding day

You’d never know it from their smiles, but Chelsea and Nathan’s outdoor garden wedding had to be scrambled for their rain plan. We think it turned out just as beautifully as the classic St. Regis Hotel wedding Chelsea and Nathan had envisioned. The couple embraced the weather as part of the joy of their wedding day.

Chelsea’s bridal bouquet was a classic as could be, designed using white and ivory garden roses, spray roses, stock and lisianthus accented with touches of trailing jasmine vine, camellia foliage and soft green seeded eucalyptus. The mix of foliages served to keep the bouquet loose and open. Bridesmaids carried lush bouquets of roses, spray roses, stock, dahlias and lisianthus in shades of ivory, and pale pink, accented with touches of seeded eucalyptus.

Even though it wasn’t what they first pictured, the ceremony was still incredibly beautiful. The crystal chandeliers of the Astor Ballroom at the St. Regis created a dramatic aisle for Chelsea. Nathan awaited her in front of a stunning mirror, which reflected the romantic lighting. White hydrangea, blush pink roses, lisianthus, larkspur, stock and spray roses were finished with camellia foliage, seeded eucalyptus, salal foliage, and draping jasmine vine. Clusters of glass cylinder vases with ivory pillar candles, set in a bed of pale pink roses petals, were placed at the base of each pillar.

The ballroom then transformed into an elegant reception with complementary centerpiece designs of white hydrangea, pale pink ‘Sweet Eskimo’ roses, ivory spray roses, white stock, and ‘Café au lait’ dahlias, accented with loose jasmine vine, seeded eucalyptus and camellia foliage. Garlands of of seeded eucalyptus and salal adorned wedding signage and the length of the mantle.

These two brought their own sunshine to this rainy but classic St. Regis Hotel wedding day!

The Old Masters knew something we’re bringing back. ✨

Clusters of plums, grapes, even nuts add to the lush tablescape of flowers, the kind of abundance that belongs in a Caravaggio painting. Rich, tactile, and impossibly beautiful in person. It’s one of our favorite ways to add depth and drama to a wedding table without sacrificing an ounce of elegance.

Twenty years in business means there are people whose stories become part of yours.

When former Petal’s Edge designer Bree got married in Hendersonville, North Carolina, we knew we wanted to more than just present. So we loaded up supplies, traveled south, turned an Airbnb into a temporary design studio, sourced flowers from a local wholesaler (hats off to Coward Wholesale Flowers for being so helpful in addition to our local ride or die @potomacfloralwholesale), and spent the week creating wedding flowers far from home.

It’s not every day that a florist gets to design for one of their own. The miles, logistics, and long days were worth it to celebrate someone who spent years helping create beautiful weddings for others.

This time, it was Bree’s turn, and we couldn’t be happier.
