WEDDING.

By lucid.ladybug

All the dainty details from our vintage wedding featuring sustainable styling by lucid ladybug.

It’s so easy to get swept up in the pressures swirling brides + the wedding planning process..

From people pleasing to social standards and unrealistic expectations for weddings I’m here to say.. ya don’t have to do any of it!

One of the best things I did was unfollow bridal accounts when I was planning! I wanted our wedding to feel authentically us and didn’t want to feel swayed by the algorithm - so I turned it off.  

Sharing more of my beauty rituals on our blog today ✨

lucid ladybug love: smithville, nj engagement ✨

“A connection through our dear friend, Steph led to lucid ladybug meeting up with the couple in Smithville, NJ this November to capture engagement photos.  We personally love when couples share a private engagement and save photos for a later date.
 
Once a stagecoach stop, Smithville’s original building was purchased in 1952 by Fred and Ethel Noyes. They restored the building into their antique shop and eventually into a restaurant called The Smithville Inn.

Smithville is a favorite SJ spot - especially during the holiday season with the train ride and the carousel overlooking Lake Meone. It was the perfect place to capture Nick + Steph’s vintage-inspired engagement photos. We met just before sunset on November 23 and I had a blast puttering around Smithville with them - snapping pics of them holding hands, sneaking smooches and riding the famous carousel together.

Did you know the carousel at Smithville is from Wichita, Kansas?
 
Nick rocked his vintage leather jacket and Steph paired a vintage-style skirt perfectly with her denim jacket and patent leather Mary Janes.
 
The joy and love radiating from the two of them outshined the gorgeous sunset we watched over Lake Meone. We ended our session in the gazebo for a quick twirl and glance at the Christmas lights leading up to the Inn.” continue reading on our wedding blog ✨

“A gorgeous, backyard Princeton reception complete with homegrown flowers, local vendors and 100 lucid ladybug vintage coupe glasses offered guests a lovely and intimate garden party experience with a vintage touch.

We can’t help but swoon over the reception shots captured during speeches. There’s something so elegant about raising a vintage glass at your wedding - a unique and sustainable elevation to your happiest moments.

We love the focus on small business and the couple's decision to include their favorite, local, go-to spots. 

A shining example of how your wedding should truly reflect you. Lean into what you as a couple love - include those who light up your life and inspire you and let the celebration unfold organically!”

TRUST ✨

My word for 2025 is trust. Trust appears in the Bible 193 times. Trust in God’s plan for my life. Trust in the right path for lucid ladybug. Trust in authentic connections. Trust in the continued healing of my body. Trust that it all working out for my good. Trust in endless possibilities. Trust in love!

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight”

Our books are open for 2025! If you are interested in working with lucid ladybug, let’s get your date on our calendar.

Wishing you a safe, happy, and healthy New Year!

the wedding of ian + liane on the blog today with beautiful snaps by @jboldphoto ✨

“The wedding of Mr. Ian Hill + Ms. Liane Zielinski took place at The Great Falls Center in Paterson, NJ on September 27, 2024. After a morning of mimosas, glitter, and giggles - the bride and groom shared an emotional first look, embracing each other before photos with their iconic wedding party and family, who made the entire day SO much fun! 

“Adult Chuck E Cheese” is what Lu described to me as her wedding vibe - and if you were there, I think you’d agree - the playful atmosphere, joy, and love surrounding the couple felt truly like a kid on their birthday!”

our wedding flowers upcycled into a homemade wreath ✨

“A a full circle moment of reflection on the love, joy, and energy we’ve received this past year celebrating our wedding.

There is something so beautiful about the energy flowers carry on your wedding day. Our flowers were extra special - some coming from local farms (@jerseycutflowermarket) and hand-crafted by Sal from @floraanddean.

Every time we walk in and out of our home now we are reminded of the commitment and seal of love we made to each other on that day with all our family and friends as witnesses.”

the story behind the vintage wedding fur stole ✨

“Tucked in the back of her closet was her late Mother, Irene Evelynne Polansek’s vintage fur stole - in mint condition no less. When Carol found it - she knew I had to have it. Little did she know I was on the hunt for one already - a match made in heaven, literally!

Carol’s Mom, Irene worked for Arnold Constable & Company as a Junior Buyer when Carol was in high school in the 1950s. At one point Arnold Constable & Company was the oldest department store in America - operating for over 150 years from its founding in 1825 to its closing in 1975.

Irene loved her job and was a true fashionista long before it was trendy for women to work.”

I feel so honored and humbled to share the stories and legacies of women who have walked before me. Women who shaped, changed, and challenged history. Wearing Irene’s fur on our wedding day was extra sentimental - sharing her story is just as special.”

wedding flowers ✨

“A true work of art - Sal’s team outdid themselves with the assortment, curation, and arrangement of blooms. 

Stunning flowers of the highest quality adorned every inch of our 1926 historical venue (@communityhouseweddings). He made sure local NJ flowers were included in our arrangements from the @jerseycutflowermarket and worked with our uniquely curated lucid ladybug assorted vintage vessels. 

Wildly romantic and antique with textures to grab your attention - each table was uniquely captivating. 

Our vessels were all vintage - brass spittoons and vases, crystal bud vases, vintage bar pitchers, and decanters - each offering a different variety for our guests to admire.”

only regret was not getting a bigger cake ✨

“After a traditional church ceremony complete with communion and an upcycled petal toss, 160 guests paraded down the main street to the black-tie cocktail hour and reception at the Community House of Moorestown.

A 1962 Vintage European Vespa greeted guests with a Prosecco Pour. Family and friends were ushered to their escort cards and favors - vintage coupe glasses - to fill with local wine or signature cocktails -  “The Lenny” or “The Flo Baby”, inspired by the couple’s late grandparents.

A Modern vintage floral design by Flora and Dean with custom-curated vintage vessels and vases added a unique touch to the church, lobby, library, club room, garden room, and ballroom. Vintage brass candlesticks, spittoons, bar trays, crystal bud vases, bar pitchers, mirrors, decanters, and upcycled candles were all intentionally and sustainably sourced for the 1926 mansion. 

Prosecco bottles poured as guests entered the ballroom with live music by the Slippery Band. A night spent on the dance floor, the bride surprised everyone with a special performance on stage. A cigar bar with vintage ashtrays, custom matches, and coasters offered guests the perfect nightcap under the stars with cake and coffee in hand.”

our traditional wedding ceremony ✨

“It was important to Ryan and I that our marriage was blessed in a church by a priest. I grew up Methodist and Ryan grew up Catholic, and together we found a beautiful harmony of our Christian faith and upbringing at Trinity Episcopal Church.

We knew we wanted something that felt comfortable to both of us and meeting Mother Emily was truly one of the greatest blessings of our wedding journey. In our faith, marriage is a sacrament - symbolizing Christ’s union with his Church. The union of our souls is an outward expression of Christ’s love for His people and the only sacrament that requires two people.

Wet met monthly with Mother Emily for the entire year leading up to our wedding day. It was a special time carved out each month to reflect on our relationship’s journey and to dream and pray for our future together. 

We worked through The Marriage Journey by Linda Grenz & Delbert Glover - which we highly recommend. Whether you’re religious or not - I suggest finding a book or workbook to study together in preparation for your marriage. The foundation upon which you build your marriage is already in the works - take time to strengthen this with open, honest conversations and intentional time set aside to remember why you’re entering marriage.”
