Wilson House Wedding

December 10, 2018

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.

A rooftop celebration that proves timeless can still be bold. For Elaine & Trey’s wedding at Capitol View at 400, we leaned into classic green and white, but elevated it with sculptural greenery installations, gold Harlow stands, and skyline views that stretched for miles. A ceiling of foliage softened the tented space, while sleek black bridesmaid dresses added contrast and edge. Clean, refined, and impossibly romantic.

An unforgettable view, a refined design, and the kind of quiet luxury that lingers. For Jackie & Amy`s celebration atop The LINE DC, we designed a modern two-piece arch that framed both the couple and the Washington Monument beyond—an intentional echo of symmetry and story. Inside, lush floral moments softened the reception with elegance and ease. Design that speaks softly but says everything? That’s our favorite kind.⁣

When Peter & Timothy said “I do” at District Winery, they gave us the best kind of brief: a blank slate. We transformed the space with a canopy of greenery that danced along the ceiling and staircase, softening the architecture and adding a whimsical, organic touch to both ceremony and reception. It was a celebration full of intention, joy, and beauty—exactly the kind of transformation we live for.⁣

It’s Bike to Work Day — and while we usually pedal toward petals, we couldn’t resist sharing this creative twist from Elle & Bryan, one of our couples who wheeled their love of cycling straight into the ceremony. 🚲✨

Elle & Bryan’s wedding at Dumbarton House was full of charm, personal touches, and one especially fun nod to their love of cycling. Bicycle wheels became sculptural backdrops, proving that when it comes to personal touches, there’s no such thing as too niche.

Designing florals around unexpected objects? That’s our lane. And yes — it was all uphill in the best possible way.

We love a ceremony moment that makes jaws drop—and Jasmine & Edmond`s wedding at Lansdowne Resort did not disappoint.✨ We framed the aisle with lush florals and stately columns to create the dreamiest walk for our bride and to frame the couple. For the reception, we went all in with tall centerpieces featuring hanging orbs, low lush designs, and the soft flicker of candles tucked into gold geometric terrariums. Soft, glowing, and full of movement—just the kind of floral story we love telling from aisle to afterparty.⁣
