Wedding at The George

The George of Old Town is a fully renovated historic home in Old Town Alexandria. Once belonging to George Washington, the house is available for rent, making it a stunning option for your “intimate day”. A beautiful entryway, staircase, stylishly appointed rooms, and a back patio make it a lovely choice for a small wedding at The George – especially with room for all of your nearest and dearest to stay as well. Sharing our recent late summer wedding at The George today!

Carine & Justin’s Wedding

Getting married in the midst of a pandemic is not easy, but by following local guidelines and reducing guest counts, Carine and Justin’s wedding at The George was as magical as any. As guests arrived for the intimate ceremony, the back of the aisle featured a design full of lush cream and mauve blooms making for a grand entrance to the intimate space. The palette for the wedding was a unique combination, perfect for late summer. The floral palette featured Cafe au Lait dahlia, Purple Moon and Amnesia roses, delicate smokebush, pampas grass and lots of eucalyptus and olive leaf foliages. Carine’s bouquet featured creamy white dahlia and garden roses accented with Cafe au Lait, while Justin wore the most simple and elegant boutonniere of olive leaf foliage. The ceremony itself was set with a lush, deconstructed arch flanking the wooden gate in the brick-enclosed patio. Lemon leaf, ruscus, smokebush and olive leaf were finished with white and mauve roses and spray roses, with pampas grass plumes creating a dramatic finish to the design.

Love in full bloom - rain and all ☔️ ✨

Tamari & Zach embraced the romance of a rainy day ceremony at the historic Tudor Place, saying “I do” beneath clear umbrellas. Then they celebrated in the cozy, intimate setting of the Tabard Inn - with a warm floral palette of corals and oranges, the dreamiest Cafe au Lait dahlias, and proof that a little rain only adds to the magic.

G is for greenery 🌿, L is for lush ✨… you get the idea!

When it comes to statement-making florals, a well-placed garland can do it all—elevate long tables, frame a ceremony aisle, or even drape around a fountain for that effortlessly chic look. Who said greenery was just filler? 💅

Industrial spaces have a beauty of their own, but the right floral design can take them from warehouse to urban garden. 🌿✨

For Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding, we played with scale—tall magnolia branches to emphasize the height, lush florals to soften the space, and candlelight to add warmth. The result? An urban oasis that felt both grand and intimate.

1️⃣Go Big with Greenery – Tall magnolia branches brought height and movement to Laura & Michael’s Dock 5 wedding

2️⃣ Mix Textures – Lush, low floral arrangements softened the industrial edges while keeping the space dynamic

3️⃣ Layer Candlelight – Warm glows + metal details = a romantic urban oasis

4️⃣ Frame Key Spaces – A floral garland on the head table grounded the design and added intimacy. Trees flanking the table took it to the next level

5️⃣ Contrast is Key – Pairing the raw, industrial elements with soft florals and organic details created the perfect balance
