Engagement photos - what should he wear?
Elizabeth in Wedding Attire, on April 11, 2018 at 10:32 PM

This is the dress I bought for our pics. I ordered a burgundy dress for him, silly me. It is way to dark and looks out of place. Any ideas on what he should wear? Color wise?

Elizabeth in Planning, on December 13, 2017 at 5:32 PM
