As the weather turns colder, the "wedding season" starts to wind down. But for some adventurous couples who love the cool weather, the leaves turning colors, or just can not wait to be married, this is the perfect time of year.

There are so many fun things that only this time of year brings! To make sure you take full advantage of the adventures you can have, I have made up an Autumn bucket list of fun activities to check off during the season!

The St. Paul is a follow-up to one of our most popular wedding invitations The Riverside. The St. Paul contains a bold, colored stripe, 2 bordered photos and a large background photo. Due to its larger surface area, this invitation is better suited to large volumes of text than its counterpart. It is also a 5 x 7 card which is a more traditional sized invitation.

The photographs were taken by Julie Harmsen, you can see more of her work at http://www.julieharmsenphotography.com/
