Save-the-Dates

As one of my first real "activities" of being a bride, Rob and I schemed about what to do with the save-the-dates. As I've come to understand thoroughly, every bride-to-be wants to be unique and impart a bit of themselves (and their fiancées) into every detail.

The Save-the-Dates are really the first public communication from a to-be bride and groom to their friends and family. So in my opinion, the save the dates should reek of your personality and share to your friends and family some important things or just fun facts about the two of you as a couple. Even if it's conveyed with a "typical" medium, like a magnet, something that tells a bit about the couple will really make your save the date unique. With Rob and I, that was pretty easy because we have such a huge thing in common, the wedding industry and how we met. So with that in mind, we decided to do a photo shoot of us doing a photo shoot!! :-)

So after bribing Gen and Justin LeBlanc (and really, it doesn't take too much bribing to get a former bride to get back in her wedding dress) to dress up for us, Rob and I hit the streets of Red Bank with friend/photographer Craig Pittelli. We had such a blast, check out some pictures below!!

So now the fun part. :-) Besides these pictures there are many more to pick from so Rob and I picked our favorites and we made a collage of them for our magnets. :-)
