Vintage Mount Vernon Inn Wedding

Vintage Mount Vernon Inn Wedding

So what photos won’t show you from this delightful vintage Mount Vernon Inn wedding is that it took place on a THURSDAY! Surrounded by an intimate grouping of friends and family, Bettie and Jacob recited their vows and celebrated their union at the historic Mt. Vernon Inn in the middle of the week.

Embracing the colonial flair of the site, Bettie and Jacob chose a romantic scheme of champagnes, pinks, and natural and unstructured touches of green for the vintage Mount Vernon Inn wedding. Bettie carried a bouquet of champagne Sahara and Quicksand roses accents with light pink astilbe, stock, and loose wisps of jasmine vine, while Jacob’s boutonniere matched with a similar clutch of flowers. Small touches of ivory spray roses graced her hair. The bridesmaids carried ivory roses and stock accented with jasmine vine, the perfect contrast to their diaphanous, blush pink dresses.

The ceremony took place under the tent on the back patio of the site. It was truly the most perfect spring day – all the more shocking with how peculiar our DC spring weather has been! The couple was flanked by two lush urn designs of light pink hydrangea, astilbe, stock, champagne and ivory roses finished with lemon leaf and draping touches of jasmine vine.

Bettie and Jacob had collected an assortment of teapots for their centerpieces, providing a personal touch to the reception. Each teapot was filled with a garden mix of light pink and champagne flowers accented with green. The hydrangea, roses, lisianthus, ranunculus, astilbe and stock looked perfectly at home in the eclectic mix of containers. The ceremony arrangements were brought into the ballroom for the reception and framed the cake.

It was a special treat for us to also be able to provide day of coordination for the event. With Bettie finishing up her graduate degree in North Carolina while Jacob started a new business here in the DC area, it was wonderful to be able to lend our logistical skills to help see the couple through their day. Congratulations Bettie and Jacob on their vintage Mount Vernon Inn wedding.

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.
