The Details
This spring wedding at the U.S. National Arboretum blended elegant tented reception design with personal details inspired by one of the brid’s time living in New Orleans. Set beneath sailcloth tents on the Flowering Tree Pad, the celebration featured a fully floored reception tent, layered lighting, lush florals, and a separate after-party tent that transformed the evening into a late-night garden party in Washington, DC.
The couple incorporated a mostly vegan wedding menu creating a dining experience that felt both modern and deeply personal. Late in the evening, guests were surprised with custom burgers served in personalized boxes featuring illustrations of the couple!
From meadow ceremony views to the tented reception spaces, this Arboretum wedding showcased how couples can create a fully customized wedding experience surrounded by nature in the heart of Washington, DC.
