The Barrel Room is the perfect place for a romantic ceremony at Stone Tower. Add pinecones, and twinkle lights and you have a winter wonderland wedding! We started with our custom built copper wedding arch, covered it with christmas greens and white roses and hanging florals, added a layer of twinkle lights and pinecones and […]

Romance and candles meets copper and industrial. Swoon! I admit, I was unsure of how to make this color palette work in the beginning. It took some careful flower choice. But in the end, I was able to choose the perfect flowers to make this rust and copper wedding at Tenth Ward Distillery work. I […]

I think when the bride hugs her bouquet, it’s worth a blog post! What do you think? This playful spring wedding was so much fun to create. So many of the flowers came from local farms, and they gave the designs a “just picked” look. Amanda’s bouquet was made of clematis vine, sweetheart roses, cosmos, […]

For as long as we can remember, we’ve been decorating weddings with candles, typically paraffin wax candles.

My company has been committed to buying American Grown flowers and foliage for many reasons:  1) The product is fresher, generally cut into fresh water and […]

Catharine and Matt wanted an intimate & romantic microwedding at Iron Gate Restaurant Washington DC. They chose a beautiful restaurant with a little outdoor terrace, perfect for a table for 20 to be set up following their ceremony.

Alexa and Erik had a Modern sunset/citrus colored wedding at Carroll Creek Park Amphitheater in Downtown Frederick and then had their reception at Attaboy Barrel House.
