Attention all Brides-to-be: We have received a media request for a young couple in love, planning on getting married, from the casting director of MTV's "Engaged and Underage".
If you're in the planning stages of a wedding, and interested in having your event documented on national tv, let us know....

... and remember, we have the best selection of "Save the Dates", wedding, shower and rehearsal invitations ... everything from printed to engraved to letterpress....

Finally, some cool weather in Florida and beyond!
The cooling weather has enabled us to stock up on our Rigaud candles from France ... since they are pure perfume, we are always unable to ship them around the country from mid-April through mid-October ... we can now ship, but we are only stocking Cypress ... the original (green) scent.

Wow! We in Florida can finally breathe ... summer is slipping away and the humidity is disappearing . I know those of you in other climates are wondering what I'm talking about, but trust me ... we have 5 months of sticky hot weather every year and we just can't think about anything until it breaks.

Despite the unlovely economy and the election unease, the store is stocked with holiday cards and personalized holiday albums ... as someone always tells me; no matter what, Thanksgiving and Christmas always come. Remember too, that in challenging times it's even more important to take a break and celebrate with friends and family.

For all our wonderful brides-to-be, we are thrilled to announce that in addition to Crane's and William Arthur wedding invitations, we have added some fabulous new looks this year ... if you are looking for something in good taste but totally unique, we have it!

Filofax refills for 2009 are in store, so if you're already booking meetings, trips or dentist appointments, stop in and get organized.

We are pleased to announce that last spring The Paper Shop became a member of the Association of Bridal Consultants. Our staff member Barbara DiFlumeri has been attending seminars and studying hard to pass the association's exams and move to the next level ... we'll be letting you know when she's available to help plan your wedding!

Remember, if you have etiquette questions, feel free to e-mail or call us and we'll be happy to answer them.
