Looking back at the wedding planning process (and not so patiently waiting for my wedding photos), I can’t help but think of my favorite planning milestone—taking our engagement photos! They truly made us fall in love with our photographer and feel comfortable in front of the camera. They were also great cocktail hour table decor and looked great on our save the dates!

When did you/will you take your engagement pictures? What do you plan to do with them? If you’ve already taken your epics please share your favorites!

    We already took ours. I loved them so much. We are getting a custom guest book poster done in a Disney castle. It will be a collage of a ton of out pictures. We used a bunch of them for that purpose. We also sent some on our std and used them for our wedding website. These are three of my favorite photos.

    Thanks! We tried to do a Disney theme for it as Disney played a huge part in our relationship. (Promise ring at magic kingdom, engagement at Hollywood studios, our first major couples trip was there as well)

    We took ours 3 weeks ago and I’m itching to see them! We’ll use one on our STD and then I plan on putting the rest in a book to act as our guest book.

    We will have a Disney cake, Disney table numbers, a Disney guestbook, there are Disney quotes on our std, invites, and wedding website, our ring bearer and flower girl will be dressed up as beauty and the beast, we will have some Disney photo booth props, among some other things. The wedding is Disney Christmas so we will have Christmas elements as well for example the actual centerpieces.

    Pretty easy to find but expensive. I am DIYing the Christmas parts of the wedding mainly. I have made two diy Disney additions. (Welcome sign and glasses) I will be making beer glasses for the guys and wine glasses for the girls in addition to these. That’s a work in progress though lol

    We took ours very early in our engagement. We got engaged in July 2017 and had engagements pics done in Oct 2017 for a Sept 2019 wedding! We used some pics on our STD, others we have hanging in our home, and we used one for our announcement in the local newspaper (credit to FMIL for that).
