Engagement Photo Attire

Ooh fun. We were told to bring 2 outfits - 1 more dressy and 1 more casual. I guess what I wanted were some outfits that represented us, whilst also being at least a bit timeless.

I did jeans and a cute lace croptop for the casual photos, and a peach coloured dress and heels for the more dressy one. I think having a skirt you can twirl in or have blow dramatically in the wind is super fun:

I think if I had your theme and colourscheme, I'd pick something like these (which I just found on Lulus since it's so well-known):

I also found this photo set of an engagement shoot influenced by Lord of the Rings which might give you some inspiration!

We had a couple outfit changes. One was dressier and the other more casual. We threw on some jerseys as well before we changed into our dressy clothes. Whatever you end up wearing, make sure you feel comfortable and like yourselves. If you don’t, that discomfort will translate into the pictures, which you definitely don’t want!

I recommend a dressier outfit (date night attire) and then a more casual outfit (like a nice version of what you would regularly wear). If you want a third outfit change then something thematic (favorite sports team, college where you met, work uniforms, your LOTD theme) works well.

I definitely recommend outfit changes!! I liked the way one of my outfits photographed way more than the other!

You can do a casual and a dressy outfit, and something super Lord of the Rings inspired!! 🤩

Here were our outfits:

I agree with the one casual outfit and one dressier outfit!
