Vintage Meridian House Wedding

Vintage Meridian House Wedding
Petal's Edge DC | Washington DC Wedding Florist | Wedding Table Centerpieces | Alexandria, Virginia

Though their wedding was here in DC, Jess and Jim both live and work in Philadelphia.  Planning a wedding at a distance always carries some challenges, but the results can still be beautiful! Especially for this vintage Meridian House wedding.

The ceremony was held in the garden at Meridian House, with two lush designs in verdigris urns flanking the couple. Jess and Jim favored an eclectic look, so rather than carry the color through to the aisle decor, the chair flowers were simple poufs of baby’s breath. Similarly, the bridesmaid’s bouquet was comprised of only yellows and mint greens. The white also carried through to the Linden Grove, where loose garden designs of white flowers were suspended between the trees.

The couple opted for a fun, scientific twist on a seating chart. The dinner decor for the vintage Meridian House wedding was eclectic, with each table receiving a vignette of books, milk glass and bud vases forming the centerpieces.  Dahlias, succulents, Queen Anne’s lace, billy balls and… were used to create a vintage, garden elegance for each table.  A petite burlap pennant served as the table number, inserted in a book at each table.

Some weddings are magic. ✨

This one just took a cart, a loading dock, stairs, ramps, 250 feet of hallway, and a very determined florist team.

Here’s what you don’t see in the final gallery: the cardio, the zip ties, the setup hustle. But would we do it all again for this dreamy blue-and-white moment we created for Jenni & Aaron at the Omni Shoreham? Absolutely.

Some weddings are sweet.

This one? Smart, stylish, and just a little unexpected.

At Eaton DC, where there’s a record player in the lobby and intention in every detail, we brought florals that nodded to tradition. White and blush, gold compotes, lush greenery - and then we slipped in a few surprises (hello, orchids). From a ceremony full of movement to tall reception designs that played with height and shape, this wedding proved modern love doesn’t have to be minimal.

No, ma’am. That’s not how any of this works…

💐✨ Wedding flower myths? We’ve heard them all. ✨

“You can just reuse the _____ flowers.”
“Faux flowers look the same.”
“Greenery is cheap, right?”

We get it. Planning a wedding comes with a lot of well-meaning advice. But when it comes to flowers, there’s a big difference between a cost-saving hack and a costly mistake.

At Petal’s Edge, we design with intention, experience, and artistry. We’re not here to upsell. We’re here to guide you through what works, what doesn’t, and what’s actually worth it. Because your flowers should feel just as thoughtful as the rest of your wedding. 🌿💐
