Vibrant Rose Hill Manor Wedding

If it’s one thing we love, it’s a wedding bursting with color! In the case for Arielle and Jay’s vibrant Rose Hill Manor wedding, the design direction was classic while also embracing a modern aesthetic, but most of all COLORFUL. Arielle wanted a super lush floral palette that was more flower focused. Arielle’s bouquet embraced a more muted palette – soft pinks and peaches with the best of summer’s Cafe au Lait dahlias and garden roses.

This wasn’t the first Petal’s Edge wedding at Rose Hill Manor, but it was our first opportunity to produce a wedding ceremony inside. At the end of the aisle, we designed a gorgeous floral display flanking the French doors to the courtyard atop two vignettes of pedestals.

If ever there was a wedding that created wow, this vibrant Rose Hill Manor wedding reception accomplished this feat with lots of saturated color. Taking advantage of the height in the central portion of the ballroom, gold harlow stands held lush designs in shades of hot pink and orange aloft. Finishing the design, glass orbs were suspended from the stands, each with a touch of candlelight.

Theres something about September that always feels like a turning point. The days are still warm, but the morning is a bit cooler. School is back in session. The light starts to change. And after a long DC summer, you do all get that first day when you can open the door and think, yes, fall really is coming. 🍁

For me fall has always been tied to the rhythm of the school year. Kids going back to school and calendars filling up. Pulling sweaters out of the back of the closet, and thinking about Halloween before you’re quite ready to admit summer is over.

In the studio, autumn has another rhythm. September and October weddings - arguably our busiest time of the year - paired with all sorts of fun things. Pods, berries, grasses and all sorts of funky things.

I think there’s a reason fall weddings always feel so right. It’s a season built around change. The landscape shifts, the light softens, the year begins winding down… and in the midst of that, two people choose to begin something.

Maybe that’s what I love about this time of year. Autumn can feel nostalgic and hopeful at the same time. So here’s to another fall wedding season, changing leaves, cooler nights (no mosquitoes), celebrations and all the new beginnings still ahead.

Amy & Reuben’s wedding photos are here, and I forgot how much I loved this palette! White flowers, loads of green, and black woven through just enough to make everything feel a little sharper.⁣
⁣
We used anemones, ranunculus, roses, sweet pea and stock, with big, loose greenery moments throughout the room. It was springy without being pastel, classic without feeling too traditional, and so much fun to see all together at the Park Hyatt.⁣
⁣
Also, that bouquet. 🤍🖤⁣

Classic roses. Ethereal baby’s breath. And bleached ruscus for some fashion forward style. Classic with an edge.

We spend a lot of time talking about flowers, mechanics, color palettes, and installations.⁣
But every once in a while we`re reminded that flowers aren`t really the point.⁣
⁣
They`re the backdrop to the moments people remember.⁣
⁣
Tiffiannii & Minerva`s celebration, made possible through Wish Upon a Wedding, was one of those reminders. The flowers mattered. The celebration mattered more.⁣
⁣
And that`s exactly how it should be.⁣
