Jules + Joe’s Woodsy Wedding at Laurita Winery in New Egypt, NJ

Jules and Joe’s woodsy wedding at Laurita Winery in New Egypt, NJ was twinkly and magical. Their rustic personality with a love of being outdoors, fit their Fall, October wedding at Laurita Winery perfectly. They wanted it to be a relaxed and fun day with their loved ones.

We loved Jules and Joe ever since we photographed their engagement session at Allaire State Park last fall. The beautiful couple had their autumn vibes and wedding colors picked out then as they prepped for their future big day. Deep red, ivory, gold, and Forest greens played a huge role throughout their engagement session. The couple brought this color scheme on their wedding day as well – and it was magnificent!!

Sweet and beautiful Jules could not stop smiling all through her bride prep, she was excited and happy to be marrying the love of her life later that evening. Jule’s hair was in a high bun that just complemented her elegance and her veil was placed over her bun to complete the look. Lisamarie Charles did an awesome job on Jule’s hair and makeup. She looked absolutely stunning! Her bridesmaids wore deep red floor length dresses, each styled slightly different than the other. Their bouquets consisted of puffy white roses and deep red ranunculus, with silver dollar eucalyptus leaves. Narcissus Florals really went all out with Jules’ and Joe’s florals!! WOW, Jules’ bouquet really stood out with huge, deep red roses that were intertwined with red berries that complemented the fall season. Jules stepped into her Allure Bridals wedding gown from Cinderella Bridals and my goodness, she looked INCREDIBLE!

Jules surprised Joe and his groomsmen with an in house barber to give all of the guys spa treated shaves and cuts during their prep for the big day. Christian from Doorbell Barbers arrived at the Hilton Garden Inn with all of the supplies necessary to give the groom and his guys a shave and haircut complete with Bourbon, cigars, and Sinatra. Joe looked so handsome!! All of the guys were in gray tuxedos with deep red chucks, pocket squares, ties, and suspenders. Joe had a gorgeous red ranunculus boutonniere, while the groomsmen rocked white ranunculus boutonnieres.

Wine barrels and twinkly lights were seen throughout the ceremony and reception. This worked well with their outdoor woodsy theme. Their 7 o’clock candlelit ceremony was held outside of Laurita Winery. It felt very serene and relaxed. On either side of the ceremony space were wine barrels that had large floral arrangements done by Narcissus Florals and candles on the ground and lining the aisle. The ceremony space looked beautiful!

Jules was ready to dance the night away and Joe was ready to mingle with his crowd, whereas equally they both were ready to dive into delicious food and have fun. Their reception space at Laurita Winery was beautifully lit with candlelight and string lights hung from the ceiling. The deep reds and woodsy feels were seen throughout the space. Jules and Joe went with orange uplighting that kept the seasonal feel to their theme. Their sweetheart table had two framed photographs of their beloved dogs, because they wanted their special pups to be a part of their big day too! How precious and sweet was that!!

The details in their reception space really fit their personalities and the style of their woodsy wedding. The wedding cake was brushed and designed to look like tree trunk details, while the groom’s cake was shaped like a cigar box! Chocolate Carousel crafted their cakes with perfect detail and design. The Groom’s cake actually looked like a real box of cigars!!

Jules and Joe were very pleased with the reception’s atmosphere and how everything turned out. TIME TO DANCE! Everyone hit the dance floor ready to dance the night away with the newly weds. Chris Marino of Limelight Entertainment rocked their wedding and played all of their favorites! Jules and Joe danced the night away with their family and friends. It was such a magical spectacular wedding.

Congratulations Jules and Joe on your beautiful marriage to one another. We had so much fun being a part of your special day!
