Wilson House Wedding

A Classic DC Love Story

A fun couple with an obvious passion for life, Morgan and Brian met in classic DC love story fashion, as our Hungry Lobbyist blogger and FamousDC editor explored the potential for collaboration. Simple, yet striking, florals characterized their gorgeous outdoor wedding at the Woodrow Wilson House.

The wedding included traditional and modern elements, including a Catholic mass at Immaculate Conception Church and an open-air reception at the Woodrow Wilson House in Embassy Row. Simple orchids were centered on the table while twinkle lights lit up the garden as the classic DC love story wedding reception descended into night.

Hello, December. This is the month where the studio smells like evergreen, the ladders never get a day off, and our team leans into the kind of magic that only happens once a year. Before things get delightfully hectic, here’s a little beauty to ease us into the season.⁣

This week is our last "calm before the storm", and for that we are most thankful! Thanksgiving is that last burst of fall color before the start of holiday sparkle. As we head into the December whirlwind of holiday décor, winter weddings, restaurant installations, and a very special charity celebration, we’re taking a moment to savor the pause.⁣
⁣
The quiet beauty of the harvest always reminds us of David & Eric`s wedding at Decatur House, where the centerpieces weren’t flowers at all but an abundant tapestry of fruits and vegetables. A true harvest table: seasonal, generous, and grounded in the idea that beauty can come from what’s already been given.⁣
⁣
This week, that feels especially right. Gratitude for the work behind us. Gratitude for what’s ahead. And gratitude for the couples, planners, teams, and communities who make this wild, wonderful season possible.⁣

Maybe green really is having its moment. Between the Yellow Brick Road yellows, the poppy-red anemones, and a reception drenched in layered greens, this Oz-inspired spring event felt like a preview of the color conversations designers are having now.

From emerald to chartreuse to the softest sage, green can be grounding, glamorous, or a little bit wild — sometimes all at once. And with the Wicked sequel stirring up the color world again, we’re curious…

Which shade is your leading character this season?

Some of the most meaningful moments in this work come from the families who return to us. Mey first reached out by saying she’d loved her sister Iona’s wedding flowers, from the colors, the choices, the way everything held up for days. She wanted something just as thoughtful for her own wedding at 101 Constitution.⁣
⁣
A textured mix of white florals with lush eucalyptus bringing its blue-green hues gave the skyline a quiet elegance of its own. And standing there with that view of the Capitol, it was hard not to feel grateful for the trust families place in us, year after year. It’s an honor every single time.⁣

Not every couple is lucky enough to wake up to the perfect weather for their perfect outdoor ceremony. But that is not reason to fret! Somtimes the plan shifts. Laura & Ben`s outdoor ceremony at the Omni Shoreham moved inside at the last moment, and it turned out to be perfect all the same. We built a custom chuppah to frame their nuptials, overlaid with branches and flowers to echo a natural garden arbor. Swipe to see more of what made this one of our favorite spring weddings! (And they still managed to sneak in a few outdoor photos. 😉)⁣
