I love eavesdropping. 😜
While setting up for the new Georgetown Citibank, we overheard someone say, “This is the moment.” ❤️
And I couldn’t have said it better myself. Because when flowers are doing their job, they don’t just fill a space. They create a moment you can feel.

Meridian House is one of those venues that makes people fall in love the second they see it. The gardens, the historic rooms, the feeling that you`ve stumbled onto this beautiful hidden place in the middle of Washington. It is such a privilege to design there.
For Erica & Matt, the goal was to keep the flowers feeling like an eloquent dinner party. We filled the tables with hydrangea, stock, roses and spray roses, and lisianthus and lots and lots of candles so the rooms felt alive and welcoming the moment guests walked in. I remember stepping back once everything was set and thinking how light the whole space felt — like spring had simply decided to move inside for the evening.
And when Erica & Matt walked in and saw the room for the first time? The smiles said everything.

From start to finish, a labor for love

St. Francis Hall already has presence. The soaring stone walls, the stained glass, the sense that something meaningful has happened here for centuries. When we design ceremony flowers in this space, the goal is never to compete with the architecture. It’s to frame the moment. A floral installation should guide your eye to the couple while still letting the room breathe. When done well, it feels like the flowers belong there.
For Alyx & Alex’s wedding, that moment unfolded on the stage beneath a curtain of lights that created an almost celestial backdrop for their vows. Their design leaned into a modern black, white, and green palette with crisp white flowers and lush greenery that felt striking against the dark velvet draping. Suspended above the stage was a custom neon sign announcing “The Alvarados,” a bold and playful detail that captured their personality perfectly. The result was dramatic, romantic, and a little unexpected, exactly the kind of ceremony setting that makes St. Francis Hall unforgettable!
Be sure to swipe through to see how this dramatic backdrop impacted the reception. 😉
