A Classic Summer NJ Wedding | Erin + Paul

Real Weddings, Wedding Invitations

Erin and Paul grew up in the same hometown and even kicked off many summers down the shore with friends together. It wasn’t until after Paul graduated college in 2016 they went on their first date. Even though the service and food was terrible, Erin agreed to a second date and the rest was history! As for their engagement? Erin thought they were going out to dinner with her family before her sister went back to school. Little did she know they were all in on a little secret. “Paul told me there was something wrong with the car, and when we went outside to look, Paul got down on one knee,” Erin reminisced. It was at that moment Paul’s family popped out of the bushes and Erin’s family raced outside. The engaged couple celebrated with a backyard party.

THE PRETTY PAPER DETAILS

Making family and friends a priority is one of Erin and Paul’s core values they hold dear to their hearts. The couple couldn’t wait to have everyone together at Indian Trail Club. Their custom wedding stationery excited guests as they received a first glimpse into their classic summer NJ wedding! Erin and Paul chose photo-style save the date cards using photos from their engagement session, while the invitation suite featured a floral monogram crest, and dusty blue envelopes lined with a eucalyptus pattern. A dusty blue belly band wrapped around the four-piece invitation suite. However, one of my favorite details, was how we later brought the monogram crest to life. The acrylic 3D cake topper had a brushed painted back to match the invitation suite and bring the personalization full circle.
