Cherry Blossom Festival - DC



In honor of our Nation's Capital and with Spring in full swing, we thought we'd put together an inspiration board with a Cherry Blossom theme. We are DC area natives, but rarely do go into the city to see the beautiful blooms.

We must give a shout out to our first wedding of 2012, Kathleen & Kevin...because they're using a cherry blossom theme for their wedding next month. We're so excited to see it all come together!
One hundred years ago the mayor of Tokyo, Japan gave, as a present 3,000 cherry blossom trees to commemorate the long-standing friendship between the US and Japan. What a beautiful present to give us! See the full story.
Cherry blossoms are not only part of our local history, but it is also near and dear to Sweetface's heart. This bloom has been one of my favorite trees/flowers for the longest time, and we had to incorporate it into our logo, which you might find throughout our site.

We love cherry blossoms and hope you love too! Enjoy our board and if you're looking for more information about the National Cherry Blossom Festival.
