Petal’s Edge Service Guide
You love our work, and we have a feeling that – after reading the information below – you’ll love our process, too. Get all of your questions about hiring a wedding florist answered.
Petal’s Edge Floral Design is a renowned wedding and event florist in the greater Washington, DC area. Our signature offering is full-service floral design, which includes all the flowers and decor you need for your wedding, from personal flowers and ceremony and reception design to custom installations. We have an exquisite selection of decor rental items, such as vessels and chuppahs, available exclusively to our full-service clients. We also offer florals via our shop, for intimate weddings and local delivery.
In addition, we do offer design coordination, reception set up and/or clean up, and day-of event management in select cases, based on our availability. Please mention these additional services when you inquire to learn more.
The price of florals varies depending on the specific flowers used, size of arrangements, container choices, and more. Please reference the pricing guide to get an idea of how much your total investment for your wedding might be. And don’t forget, each order will also incur a 30% charge for labor and delivery, and 6% charge for Virginia sales tax.
Absolutely not! The romance of wedding flowers holds a special place in our hearts, but we also love creating floral designs for other events like product launches, corporate fundraisers, business meetings, anniversaries, birthday parties, and more. Flowers can elevate any event!
Our clients come to Petal’s Edge Floral Design because they know we can master any design style. Whether your aesthetic is modern, rustic, traditional, whimsical, or something else, we’ve done it. Our job as your florist is to understand and elevate your ideas and style with our floral designs. The only thing that stays consistent from event to event is our commitment to high-quality flowers, designs, and workmanship.
Yes — we honor all the unique ways you choose to celebrate, and whom you celebrate with. Our design team is experienced in creating florals for a variety of religious and civil ceremonies, and our rental inventory includes many religion-specific props. We also love serving LGBTQ+ couples.
This depends. We find most couples book a wedding florist anywhere from 8 – 2 months out from their wedding, thought we encourage you to reach out as soon as you’re ready. To us, “ready” means that you have an idea of your event color scheme and style, and you’re ready to make some decisions about flowers (though they won’t be set in stone until closer to your wedding).
We’re thrilled that you want to work together!
If you would like Petal’s Edge Floral Design to provide full-service floral decor, please send us an email at info@petalsedge.com. A designer from our team will contact you to schedule an appointment to discuss your needs.
If you are planning an elopement or intimate wedding, you can shop our florals a la carte directly on our website. These florals are still custom for you, but with a streamlined process. Items in the shop are grouped by style. Please pick out what you want, share your color scheme in the order notes, and we’ll take care of the rest!
Please give us a call at 703-518-8488 if you have any preliminary questions
Every full-service contact starts with a complimentary consultation. We’ll use this time to get to know you and talk through your needs, color palette, and preferred style, since every Petal’s Edge wedding is custom. (Need some inspiration on what we can do? Check out our gallery, Instagram, or Pinterest!) After the meeting, we’ll send you a custom proposal with design specifications and pricing.
We can’t wait to meet you and talk all things flowers! While we don’t expect you to be a floral expert (that’s our job!), it is always helpful to see your inspiration. Clothing swatches from your wedding party’s attire and a Pinterest board full of images are helpful for our designers to understand what you like and dislike.
Absolutely! We have a wide range of vases, containers, and props such as pillars, chuppahs, arches, candelabra and more to create a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception. Rentals, however, are only available as part of your floral contract.
Petal’s Edge Floral Design is located at 1105 Oronoco Street, Alexandria, VA 22314. Our hours are by appointment only.
Our designers are ready to take your wedding aesthetic and elevate it into a head-turning floral display. It all starts with completing our contact form.

In a city known for grand beaux arts mansions and classic ballroom weddings, there’s something so refreshing about the industrial architecture of Ritz-Carlton Georgetown.
The exposed brick, steel details, and warm textures create a completely different kind of romance. It feels moodier, more intimate, and unexpectedly modern while still feeling unmistakably DC.
We love the design opportunities a venue like this presents. Soft, garden inspired flowers against raw architectural elements will always be one of our favorite contrasts.

How did we get these lemon arrangements from Point A to Point B with everything still attached? 🍋
Plastic wrap.
Floral design is equal parts beauty, engineering, and MacGyvering. Making it pretty is one thing. Figuring out how to transport it safely is a whole other skill.

A moongate arch dressed in nothing but lush greenery - lemon leaf, ruscus, eucalyptus - and that was just the beginning. 🌿 Sometimes the most stunning designs are the ones that let the natural beauty do the talking. Lindsay and Matt`s classic Woodlawn ceremony is proof that simple, done really well, is always enough. 🤍

This bouquet lives rent free in my head, but not for the reason you think.
Our bride, Ana, had chosen stunning fuchsia cattleya orchids for her bouquet, so, as we always do, we ordered them well in advance. When our flowers arrived, I opened the box to find... white cattleya orchids. Beautiful, but not what our bride wanted. We immediately called our wholesaler and arranged for another shipment.
Two days later, I opened the second box. White orchids. Again.
This is the kind of moment that tries a florist`s soul.
We arranged for a third shipment to arrive Saturday morning while preparing backup plans we hoped we`d never need. We debated telling Ana what was happening, but ultimately decided our job wasn`t to hand her our problem. Our job was to solve it.
The correct orchids arrived Saturday morning. Ana walked down the aisle carrying the bouquet she`d dreamed of. She never knew any of this had happened.
The flowers are only part of what you`re hiring when you chose a florist. You`re also hiring someone who will fight for your vision. Who will MacGyver like their life depends on it. Because substitutions aren`t made casually; they`re made only after every reasonable option has been exhausted.
There`s an ethical dilemma at the heart of this story. As the bride, would you have wanted to know? As the florist, what would you have done?
