Your engagement photos are one of the first big moments that makes it all feel real. It’s the beginning of your wedding story—and your photos should feel like an elevated reflection of who you are together. To start, when choosing what to wear, keep it simple, refined, and true to your style. Neutral tones, soft fabrics, and classic silhouettes photograph beautifully. A flowing dress or a tailored jacket adds an elegant touch that instantly elevates the look. On the other hand, bold patterns or heavy logos tend to distract from the romantic, timeless vibe you’re going for—so it’s best to avoid them.
One of the first major decisions you’ll make during the wedding planning process is choosing your wedding venue. The wedding venue you chose will influence everything about your big day.
When do you begin looking for a location? The sooner you start, the better. You should start looking for a venue once you have a clear understanding of the following three factors: budget, approximate event size, and room requirements. Book a venue at least a year in advance to give yourself enough time to think about other important details like catering, florists, and other vendors.
