Chic Summer Flowers for Waldorf Astoria Townhouse Suite

Chic Summer Flowers for Waldorf Astoria Townhouse Suite

Wedding reception features crystal candelabra and lush low blooms

On a warm summer day, one of the exclusive townhouse suites at the Waldorf Astoria was transformed from a mere luxury suite to the site of an intimate wedding ceremony and reception. Catherine and Matt began their day taking photos around DC, dressed in their wedding day finest. Unlike a typical wedding day, many surrounding streets were closed for anticipated marches (or on second though, maybe that *is* typical for DC…). We took extra pains to make sure all the flowers were delivered early and ensure no delays for their Trump Hotel wedding. Given all the challenges of the year, we would say the day came together like a dream.

With a beautiful summer palette for the florals, the design encompassed chic, timeless and gardenesque all in one. Their Waldorf Astoria Hotel wedding featured touches of rich burgundy, from mini-calla lilies to peonies, contrasted with the romantic blush and ivory hues that comprised the majority of the florals. Soft green eucalyptus was used to accent the bouquets, boutonnieres and centerpieces. The bouquet had a classic flower-forward design with loose touches of foliage creating an organic shape that gave a hint of the unexpected.

The ceremony took place in the townhouse living room, in front of a natural alcove draped in rich blue. The Waldorf Astoria DC wedding had shades of intimacy as it had a very “home” feel while also being very elegant.

How do you combine chic and garden, you might ask? Chic crystal candelabra with gold taper candles graced the center of the long table for the Waldorf Astoria townhouse wedding. Interspersed between the crystal candelabra were elegant, gold rimmed vases. Each vase was filled with a rich design of hydrangea, roses, calla lilies and eucalyptus in soft and romantic blush and ivory blooms and that hint of a rich and dramatic burgundy.

We wish Catherine and Matt all the best in their new marriage together!

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. 🌿💐
Forget “Something Borrowed’. Seriously - have you ever seen such a stunning and tasteful incorporation of blue tones in a wedding? We brought a playful twist on “Something Blue’ into Wendy & Erik’s wedding day at @willard_intercontinentaldc With touches of blue Chinoiserie vases, not to mention other blue touches like ribbons and bridesmaid dresses, the blush and ivory floral palette of all blended perfectly together! Cheers to a beautiful day as magnificent as the happy couple!

This moment. This backdrop. Nicole & Cina’s wedding ceremony at the Reagan International Trade Building was a masterclass in modern romance. White petals lined the aisle while a copper-painted square arch framed our couple in soft waves of white + green blooms. The final touch? The bride + her bridesmaids perfectly poised beneath the arch—one of those “stop scrolling” moments we’ll never tire of. Timeless, effortless, unforgettable.
