An enchanted forest inside the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium 🌿✨

The room is stately and formal, which made a garden feel even more unexpected. Greenery spread across the tables, candlelight kept everything warm and low, and lush organic florals were layered with elegant touches throughout. My fave! Even the stationery and place settings got the forest notes. 

I love transforming a space until it’s almost unrecognizable. Immersive design was the goal, and this one was so immersive we forgot we were standing in an auditorium in DC.

For H+N, we brought a little woodland magic to the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium.

Against the grandeur of the room, sprawling greenery and lush florals felt almost as though they’d grown there. Candlelight softened the space, while the paper details and place settings carried the garden all the way to each guest’s seat.

My favorite part? Seeing such a formal setting feel intimate, inviting, and full of life.

Same resort. Same designer. Four completely different weddings. ✨

Because good design shouldn’t look like us.

It should look like you.

Four couples. Four visions. Four completely different color palettes, details, and personalities — all brought to life in the exact same place.

That’s the part of wedding design I love most. We’re not here to recreate the same beautiful wedding over and over again. We’re here to figure out what feels like you and turn it into something no one else could have had.

Same property. Same Resort. Same designer.

A completely different story every single time. 🤍
