Like so many couples today, Amber & Tyler’s furbabies Penny & Cash are their family! So when they were planning their dog friendly wedding in South New Jersey they were so excited to find The Estate at Eagle Lake – a dog friendly venue!

The couple had a gorgeous spring day for their wedding. Pink blooms dotted the serene 25 acre estate, complete with a private 6 acre natural lake.

Dog Friendly Wedding in South New Jersey | The Venue

The Estate at Eagle Lake is a rustic and unique wedding venue in South New Jersey, which sits on 25 acres of natural outdoors and features a beautiful 6 acre natural lake. The estate’s name originates from a pair of bald eagles which can often be seen on the lake in the mornings. It’s not surprising to see herons, geese and other wildlife on the grounds.

The couple chose the third week in April for their Spring Estate at Eagle Lake Wedding. Timing was perfect because the trees on the grounds were blooming, providing the perfect backdrop for photos. They chose a dusty blue bridesmaids dresses, and light gray for the men which perfectly complimented nature’s spring colors.

Preparing for April’s Spring Showers

Luckily, Amber & Tyler had perfect weather for their wedding with barely a cloud in the sky. But they also wanted to feature some of The Estate at Eagle Lake’s new indoor spaces in their photos. The venue recently expanded to include a gorgeous indoor chapel and luxurious lounge which is perfect for spring showers (or inclement weather year round)!

The couple chose to have their ceremony by the lake, and the celebration started as Penny and Cash walked down the aisle wearing floral collars. Guests enjoyed stunning views of the blue waters and sky as the couple exchanged heartfelt vows and said “I do”. After the beautiful ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktails in the Eagle Lake gardens and upper deck.

The reception was in The Estate at Eagle Lake’s grand white tent which was decorated with white flowers and greenery. After tearful first dances and heartfelt toasts, the couple danced the night away under the stars with their guests.
