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.

Double duty, done beautifully.

For Claire & Sean’s wedding at the Dockmaster’s Building, we created a floral garland for their ceremony arch. Eleegant, lush, and just dramatic enough to hold its own against the waterfront backdrop.

But we weren’t done yet. That same garland made a second appearance, repurposed to trail down the length of their head table. Thoughtful, sustainable, and completely gorgeous. Because we believe a good floral moment deserves an encore.

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.
