Vibrant Hotel Monaco Wedding

Vibrant Hotel Monaco Wedding

They say that rain on your wedding day is good luck, but it doesn’t seem to be something this happy couple needs at all! It certainly doesn’t look like it put a damper on Taryn and Harrison’s vibrant Hotel Monaco wedding day. We just think it makes for some amazing and fun pictures!

Taryn carried a bright and colorful bouquet of lush fuchsia peonies and stock, accented with deep purple lisianthus and calla lilies and finished with lavender roses for lightness. Her bridesmaids carried bouquets of similar flowers but in mixed purple and lavender tones.

The unique architecture of the ballroom at the Hotel Monaco provides the perfect space for a dramatic suspended chuppah! Rather than erecting a separate structure, we were able to use the ballroom’s striking columns to suspend the canopy, making it seem like it is floating in mid air above them. Delicate strands of purple dendrobium orchid blooms strung on monofilament hung from each corner to add to the ethereal feel.

Alternating tall and low centerpieces in shades of fuchsia and purple accented with lavender made the reception tables elegant and the perfect choice for the vibrant Hotel Monaco wedding.  It was the perfect contrast to the rainy weather outside!

It’s Bike to Work Day — and while we usually pedal toward petals, we couldn’t resist sharing this creative twist from Elle & Bryan, one of our couples who wheeled their love of cycling straight into the ceremony. 🚲✨ 

Elle & Bryan’s wedding at Dumbarton House was full of charm, personal touches, and one especially fun nod to their love of cycling. Bicycle wheels became sculptural backdrops, proving that when it comes to personal touches, there’s no such thing as too niche.

Designing florals around unexpected objects? That’s our lane. And yes — it was all uphill in the best possible way.

A night of mystery and masquerade — and the perfect way to fête the 10th anniversary of The Scout Guide Alexandria and the launch of Vol. 10! ✨ 

We loved adding our signature touch of floral drama to this year’s launch party at the Hotel Heron. From a moody and dramatic entrance piece to a flower-filled car, sculptural arrangements on cocktail tables and elevated bar arrangements casting feathered shadows and moody textures, this event let us play in a world of whimsy and wonder.

We’re 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. 10! Special thanks to Sarah and Claire for always being so supportive and encouraging.
