It’s hard to believe it’s been a year (and a day) since Amanda & Matt’s stylish winter wedding at District Winery! The coolness factor was off the charts - and I don’t just mean the temperature! We’re still dreaming of all the beautiful details - from the lush greenery and twinkle lights in the ceiling to the greenery backdrop that transitioned from ceremony to head table, the wintry centerpieces and Amanda’s bouquet. It’s hard to pick a favorite!

Hello, December. This is the month where the studio smells like evergreen, the ladders never get a day off, and our team leans into the kind of magic that only happens once a year. Before things get delightfully hectic, here’s a little beauty to ease us into the season.

This week is our last "calm before the storm", and for that we are most thankful! Thanksgiving is that last burst of fall color before the start of holiday sparkle. As we head into the December whirlwind of holiday décor, winter weddings, restaurant installations, and a very special charity celebration, we’re taking a moment to savor the pause.
The quiet beauty of the harvest always reminds us of David & Eric`s wedding at Decatur House, where the centerpieces weren’t flowers at all but an abundant tapestry of fruits and vegetables. A true harvest table: seasonal, generous, and grounded in the idea that beauty can come from what’s already been given.
This week, that feels especially right. Gratitude for the work behind us. Gratitude for what’s ahead. And gratitude for the couples, planners, teams, and communities who make this wild, wonderful season possible.

Maybe green really is having its moment. Between the Yellow Brick Road yellows, the poppy-red anemones, and a reception drenched in layered greens, this Oz-inspired spring event felt like a preview of the color conversations designers are having now.
From emerald to chartreuse to the softest sage, green can be grounding, glamorous, or a little bit wild — sometimes all at once. And with the Wicked sequel stirring up the color world again, we’re curious…
Which shade is your leading character this season?
