Mayflower Hotel Washington DC Wedding

Jane and Ethan celebrated their union with a timeless and elegant wedding at the historic Mayflower Hotel in Washington DC. Their classic nuptials were a perfect blend of sophistication and romance, creating an unforgettable day filled with love and joy.

The day began with a morning ceremony at the LDS Temple, setting the tone for the rest of the festivities. Jane, the stunning bride, carried an exquisite cascading bridal bouquet of white phalaenopsis orchids, adding a touch of natural elegance to her ensemble. The bridesmaids complemented her with simple yet beautiful bouquets featuring ivory roses and spray roses, accented with dusty miller foliage for a touch of silvery softness.

As the day transitioned into evening, the festivities continued in the grandeur of the Mayflower Hotel’s Grand Ballroom. The reception exuded opulence, with long tables featuring lush and elegant floral garlands of white hydrangea, roses, spray roses, stock, and phalaenopsis orchids. These arrangements spanned the length of the 16-foot tables, creating a visually stunning and cohesive design that perfectly complemented the classic ambiance of the venue.

To further enhance the overall aesthetic, round tables were adorned with silver footed, mercury glass bowls. These centerpieces were lush and abundant, showcasing a blend of white hydrangea, roses, stock, spray roses, lisianthus, and dusty miller. The arrangements were thoughtfully accented with white phalaenopsis orchids, adding texture and movement to the design.

Jane and Ethan’s Mayflower Hotel wedding was a celebration of love and sophistication, captured in every detail. The classic and elegant style, paired with the luxurious floral arrangements, made their day truly timeless. The Mayflower Hotel in Washington DC provided the perfect backdrop for this enchanting celebration, leaving lasting memories for the happy couple and their guests.

Every venue has its own personality, and St. Francis Hall certainly does. The stone walls, the arches, the sense of history in the room. As a florist, my job is never to overpower that character. It is to design flowers that feel intentional in the space.⁣

For Camille & Corwin’s wedding, we took the design in a completely different direction and brought in tropical elements. Camille carried a cascading bouquet of white anthurium, calla lilies, and orchids, with deep green foliage adding bold shape and texture. The bridesmaids carried simple bouquets of anthurium backed with petite monstera leaves, which felt modern and a little unexpected against the historic hall.⁣
⁣
One of the things I love most about designing at St. Francis Hall is that it never forces couples into a single style. The space has enough presence to support classic elegance, garden romance, or something entirely different. Camille and Corwin’s wedding was a perfect reminder of that.⁣

Lucy & Jack’s summer wedding at St. Francis Hall was filled with soft pastels, graceful chinoiserie, and long tables designed for gathering. Towering arrangements of huck foliage added height and movement, while delicate blooms kept everything light and romantic.

A beautiful celebration for Lucy, the third daughter in a family we’ve been honored to flower. 💕

From timeless to joyful. 🤍🍋

Alessandra and David began their wedding day in the Crystal Room at the Willard beneath our new gold chuppah, where an all white floral design let the beauty of the space and the significance of the ceremony take center stage.

Then the celebration took a turn. Guests were greeted by three sculptural lemon displays at the escort table before entering the Willard Room, where lush color blocked floral centerpieces alternated with tables filled with candlelight. Fresh lemons tucked among the candles added the perfect finishing touch, bringing warmth, color, and a playful nod to the couple’s vision.

Some weddings tell one story. This one unfolded beautifully in two acts. ✨

White roses are classic for a reason. Refined, effortless, always right. But tucked among the blooms in this bride`s bouquet? Pale blue tweedia. 😍 Just a whisper of color, just enough to tell you something about who she is. That`s the detail that makes a bouquet hers. ⁣

Every choice we make is intentional, and it all starts with listening to you. If you`re planning a wedding at Hotel Monaco DC, or anywhere in Washington, we`d love to be part of it. Link in bio to get in touch.⁣
