    This weekend my husband and I, along with two other couples, fled the city and went camping at Ricketts Glen State Park in the Poconos. It was really nice to take a break from the computer and be surrounded by the simplicity and wonder of the woods. Ricketts Glen boasts 22 waterfalls! Above you will see some of my favorite photos from the trip.

    We were also happily surprised to find out that the leaves had already started to change up in the Pocono Mountains! Can you believe it….it is already October!? I have a busy month ahead of myself but my goal is to enjoy every second of October. It is such a gorgeous month and I don’t want it to slip me by without enjoying every moment of its magic.

    Perfect Pear with a Vintage Touch theme

    • by

    The Perfect Pear theme has a bit of a vintage touch to it, but not in an overly ornate way. It has an organic appeal while remaining very cozy, warm and romantic. It is the perfect theme for a sunset wedding in the Autumn with golden light streaming in during dinner.

    Perfect Seckel Pear Save-the-Date

    • by

    The Seckel Pear Save-the-Date has a lovely vintage feel to it. It would be great for the couple who is having a lot of vintage elements in their wedding. I think this vintage aesthetic works wonderfully with an Autumn wedding. There is something so cozy and charming about it. Also pears are seasonally appropriate for a wedding during the fall.

    Have I mentioned that Autumn is my favorite season? It is the season of learning and slowing down to notice all of the subtle changes in the air. It is crisp air, warm colors, charming pumpkins, apples galore, light jackets, and fantastic scarves!

    The Seckel Pear Save-the-Date is now available for ordering under the Shop Save the Dates tab.
