what to wear for the e pic?

flo's clone, on April 2, 2012 at 2:46 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 12

My photographer is letting us have my two kids in our e pics with us. So my question is, what do we wear? It will take place at the south park gazebo. Casual? Dressed up? Im lost. The kids are 6 and 5 yrs. old.

    I am glad someone posted this question. I am confused myself about what to wear. FH is not a dressy type of guy. Plus we are taking pictures a park.

    If you want casual, then best for everyone to go in jeans, maybe a jean skirt for you (if you like or own one). As far as tops, try to keep them with matching colours...whether this is perhaps blue and green, red and black, anything and white. What colours do you like? What are your wedding colours?

    Here's ours in case it helps. We're kind of dressy people so this is sort of what we look like when we want to look nice in the city for an afternoon. If we were in a park, I would probably wear different colors or fabrics that would make more sense in the setting. I bet you could find some really pretty gazebo inspiration pics on pinterest or stylemepretty!

    What's the weather going to be like? What's your everyday style? How dressy is your wedding?

    Oh and also you might be getting into some weird positions on the ground or whatever. So make sure you're comfy and that nothing will be hanging out if you have to contort a little. Smiley smile

    Here's some quick web inspiration! (the kids in the second photo don't look all that excited but maybe the photographer told them to be serious. lol.)

    We dress casually normally unless FH and I go out on a date. I wondered also what to do if I need to sit on the ground. Could be awkward and really don't wanna flash the photographer. And our wedding colors are pink and silver.

    Just keep your knees and ankles together if you're in a skirt. lol. Smiley smile I was paranoid about that during the shoot b/c I had seen a pic on our photog's blog the week before that she must have missed in the editing stage - you could basically see up the chick's skirt and she wasn't wearing tights or anything. Eesh.

    If you want to wear light colors maybe you could bring a cute picnic blanket to set on the ground? Especially if it's wet or muddy? Just brainstorming.

    What if you guys wore nice pressed jeans and collared shirts and you had on a pretty scarf or something? Or maybe a flowy flowered dress if you're a dress person?

    Our e-pic session is later this month and our photographer said it is more important to be comfortable than anything. So wear something you feel at ease in and feel good in. it will show through in your pictures.

    Personally, I don't like printed fabrics, so we'll be wearing something solid colored.

    Both! We did dressier outfits just because we wanted a little more special than everyday for when we have kids some day. They were all clothes that we already owned and were comfortable in, but not quite everyday clothes(other than my little white sundress). Think Sunday Church clothes, and than maybe something a little dressier than that so there's variety?

    Also, I second what Kris said about the knees.
