District Weddings ~ One Month Anniversary, Part II

If you’re just joining us, today is our One Month Anniversary!  We are celebrating by discussing a little about how District Weddings came to be…

After Cheree designed the District Weddings logo, I then created this idea board from the cherry blossom picture.  I thought about the most beautiful, most elegant, most perfectly “D.C.” wedding — one that incorporated the color of the gorgeous cherry blossom in little ways, without being too over-the-top.  

Here’s the picture…

And here’s the idea board that came from it…

While we’re on the topic of D.C., my absolute favorite D.C. hotel is The Hay-Adams Hotel.  I love many others for their service and quality, but The Hay-Adams is my most favorite because of its beauty.  Located right across the street from the White House, this hotel is drop-dead gorgeous.  From the front drive, to the ornate lobby, to the plush bedding, to the view from the rooftop, The Hay-Adams, in my mind, is one of the best hotels D.C. has to offer.

After creating the cherry blossom board, I used this picture of The Hay-Adams…
