School Spirit for University of Maryland Wedding

“Our couples’ school spirit was on display where ever you looked for Amy and Matt’s University of Maryland wedding. Not only did the ceremony take place at the campus chapel, and the reception at the campus hotel, but the color scheme was inspired by Maryland red! Amy’s bridal bouquet featured rich red roses and burgundy dahlia, accented with pale pink Keira garden roses, light pink spray roses, and white mini calla lilies accented with seeded eucalyptus foliage. Her bridesmaids’ bouquets, outfitted in Maryland-red gowns, held bouquets of white and pale pink blooms accented with burgundy dahlia and seeded eucalyptus. Matt wore an elegant white mini-calla lily boutonnière accompanied by a sprig of seeded eucalyptus foliage, while the remaining boutonnières substituted a white rose for the calla lily.

Going to the Chapel

For the happy couple’s ceremony at the Chapel at the University of Maryland, we provided two striking altar arrangements. Tall, fluted glass vases contained a lush, expressive design of red mokara orchids and red James Storei orchids, creating a fresh and modern focal point.

University of Maryland Hotel Reception

The University of Maryland wedding reception took place, guest tables were glammed up with one of two complementary centerpiece designs. Some tables featured a trio of gold cube vases filled with classic red roses, while others were adorned with richly textured, yet monochromatic arrangements of red and burgundy roses, dahlia and mokara orchids, accented with eggplant mini calla lilies.

Amy and Matt’s romantic wedding was a pleasure to be part of – and we like to think that this emotional shot of Amy sums up the reaction of all the couples who engage us for their special day! Congratulations, Amy and Matt!

When couples ask why large ceremony installations cost what they do, this is part of the answer.

The flowers matter, of course. But so do the ladders, mechanics, installation team, engineering, timing, and experience required to safely transform a space at scale.

This greenery-covered dome at the Omni Shoreham started as a simple structure and became a transformed garden canopy for a few short hours. Then, just as quickly, it came down.
That’s the strange thing about wedding flowers. Hundreds of stems. Hours of work. One beautiful moment.

And apparently one bee who felt qualified to supervise the entire project. 🐝

Rainy wedding weekends just hit different. Blue patterned linens, chinoiserie vases, garden inspired blooms in shades of peach, white, green, and blue, plus bridesmaids in the prettiest soft blue created a design that felt equal parts timeless and romantic. Proof that a little rain only makes the flowers look better. ☔️🩵

One more time for the people in the back! 😂 A night in St. Barth’s… right here on the Potomac!✨ 

We were so honored to help celebrate the launch of Vol. 11 of The Scout Guide Alexandria and toast the exciting next chapter under new owner Kerry Delaney at the beautiful Jula’s on the Potomac.
We leaned all the way into the St. Barth’s theme, with a cascading floral piece in the entry to set the tone as guests arrived. A daisy-filled installation over the bar brought that effortless island charm. Baskets overflowing with lemons and olive foliage added a French Caribbean warmth throughout the space, and touches of yellow kept everything feeling sun-drenched and joyful.

We’re so proud to be part of a guide that champions small businesses and celebrates creativity in our community. Supporting local means investing in the makers, doers, and dreamers who make Alexandria vibrant — and The Scout Guide does just that, beautifully.
Cheers to Vol. 11 and to all that’s ahead for Kerry and this incredible community! 🍋🌼
