Rae of Paper began in 2006 from a love of paper and planning, sparked by customizing a wedding planner for my 2008 destination wedding. By 2010, I had created a monkey-themed birthday party planner for my son that became a staple for all our parties.

In 2018, while juggling a career and three kids, I built a planner to fit my needs, which led to the creation of the RAE Layout. It gained popularity, and I started offering customized planners to friends and family, including the Megan Layout for a nursing student.

The name RAE comes from my children’s initials, representing the heart of why I started. RAE of Paper reflects my passion for different types of paper and planning. The pineapple in our logo symbolizes hospitality, much like how we approach planning.

Since 2020, word of mouth and social media have spread Rae of Paper across the USA, from New Jersey to Oregon and beyond. We've also launched RAE of Giving to support our local community. Whether Rae of Paper grows large or remains a small venture, we’re committed to creating planners and giving back.
