while I have many of the main items checked off on my list, the next item to take care of is the engagement pictures. I simply cannot wait. my fiance and I are not ones to love having our picture taken, but I am looking forward to capturing us as a couple, and to have those pictures to show our kids and grandkids!
as with any upcoming event, I've been thinking non-stop about the outfits, style, and overall feel I want these pictures to have. I know our photographer Amy, from
Pure Amour Photography will do an amazing job, and I probably don't need to fret about these details.. but it's me!
as I have been preparing for many other things summer, I have been on the look out for the perfect pieces to wear during the engagement session. so far, I have only picked up one item:

this fancy little number was only $19.80! |
this dress is so romantic, and I think that is the vibe I want to go for: soft & romantic. while I am not worried about finding the perfect outfit for me, I am concerned about what I'm going to be able to get my fiance, Nick, into. there are many cute ideas out there, but most of them he would not go for.
as always, I head to the internet, and my favorite blogs to find some inspiration for what I'm looking for:

these letters are so cute! i'm thinking about recreating these with our initials or wedding date. |

this is the closest to my little pink dress I could find. I definitely love the blue printed button up with the feminine dress. |

I adore this dress, and his suit. I think my fiance would love to wear this outfit, and I know I would loove a dress like this! |

I really think my fiance could handle a simple button-up to feel casual, but yet still look quite put together. |

these little letters are so adorable. this could easily be done to match the wedding colors, season, and just about anything! |
I cannot wait to show these to my fiance, and get his opinion. I think that we could pull something like this off, without making him feel too much like a Ken doll.
