State Theatre Wedding

State Theatre Wedding

It’s not often that we are challenged to match a tartan for a wedding, but that is exactly what Catherine and Max had in mind! Their festive wedding at the State Theatre was inspired by the multi-colored scheme of Max’s tartan. Catherine’s bouquet featured a range of bright pink and orange hues – coral peonies, hot pink and orange ranunculus, fuchsia anemone, light pink sweet pea, and peach garden roses. Max’s boutonniere featured orange ranunculus and was accented with hops as a nod to their love of beer.

The bridesmaids’ bouquets featured roses, spray roses, ranunculus and anemone in shades of hot pink, coral and orange, finished with a charcoal gray satin ribbon.

The reception took place at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church in Arlington. Here the floral scheme remained more neutral, in deference to the decor of the church.

But color made a big appearance at the reception! Against white linens, napkins and bud vases of flowers provided a festive pop of color.

Once again inspired by the colors in Max’s tartan, we used a mix of peonies, anemone, delphinium, tulips, and ranunculus in glass bud vases – the best colors of spring. For the escort card table, a glass cylinder vase featured dark pink hydrangea, roses, ranunculus and peonies in shades of coral and orange, hot pink ranunculus and fuchsia anemone. A festive design of wedding flowers crowned the cake with additional clusters strategically placed on the tiers.

Love in full bloom - rain and all ☔️ ✨ 

Tamari & Zach embraced the romance of a rainy day ceremony at the historic Tudor Place, saying “I do” beneath clear umbrellas. Then they celebrated in the cozy, intimate setting of the Tabard Inn - with a warm floral palette of corals and oranges, the dreamiest Cafe au Lait dahlias, and proof that a little rain only adds to the magic.

G is for greenery 🌿, L is for lush ✨… you get the idea! 

When it comes to statement-making florals, a well-placed garland can do it all—elevate long tables, frame a ceremony aisle, or even drape around a fountain for that effortlessly chic look. Who said greenery was just filler? 💅

Industrial spaces have a beauty of their own, but the right floral design can take them from warehouse to urban garden. 🌿✨ 

For Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding, we played with scale—tall magnolia branches to emphasize the height, lush florals to soften the space, and candlelight to add warmth. The result? An urban oasis that felt both grand and intimate.

1️⃣Go Big with Greenery – Tall magnolia branches brought height and movement to Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding

2️⃣ Mix Textures – Lush, low floral arrangements softened the industrial edges while keeping the space dynamic

3️⃣ Layer Candlelight – Warm glows + metal details = a romantic urban oasis

4️⃣ Frame Key Spaces – A floral garland on the head table grounded the design and added intimacy. Trees flanking the table took it to the next level 

5️⃣ Contrast is Key – Pairing the raw, industrial elements with soft florals and organic details created the perfect balance
