Help! i need advice on which dress to wear for mountain engagement

Raposo-Teixeira, on August 2, 2018 at 10:22 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 19
Hey ladies. I need your advice. I can't decide which dress to wear for our mountain engagement photos at Morraine Lake in Alberta. We are doing some photos in our nicely dressed and then I already have my casual outfit picked.

I included a picture of what the view looks like to help.

    Just wanted to thank all you lovely ladies for your advice. We received all of pur photos yesterday and we are so in love with them. My best advice to anyone taking engagement photos is enjoy the moment because it truly is magical.

    I agree. I'll definitely be doing a more wavy curl for sure with subtle makeup. Great tips thank you

    You're welcome, Cecilia! If you're worried, a simple hairstyle and/or makeup might help dress it down slightly. (For example, I'd avoid tight curls if its not your natural hairstyle as I could see it making the dress look more bridesmaid-like rather than straight hair or wavy hair since the former gives off a more "done up" appearance).

    That's awesome advice. Since our anniversary is before pur engagement photo shoot it would be great to wear the dress first before hand. I'm so glad you suggested that. Excellent point.

    Another great point with the jewellery. We gotta show pur beautiful engagement rings after all right ladies. 💞💍 we don't want anything else out shinning that. 😄

    Thanks so much Rachael. I just hope it doesn't look to bridesmaid like or overly fancy. I find it hard to find nice clothes in Canada...sigh

    I totally understand that! I didn’t LOVE my engagement photos I wish I would have worn something more comfortable and flattering. So as long as your comfortable and feeling confident in it you’ll be set!

    I think that dress is gorgeous! I think it will be a great color pop against the stunning background of Morraine Lake. It is a classy location so I think that dress is dressy enough, but can also be causal too, depending on your poses and accessories as well.

    Thanks so much for your advice and help. It's hard. You just wanna look and feel Great and not look back and go oh dear that's what we wore. This is the link to the dress I'm thinking. I love lace and feel it's super me. Is it too fancy or just dressy enough. Is the color Ok?

    And thank you for adding the Morraine Lake photos. That really helps.

    It's okay! I googled your location, haha. Plus my cousin got engaged there so I remember what it looks like. I'll add some pics so others can see:

    Check out my colours we used. My West Coast Engagement Photos. We had 2 outfits as well, casual and dressy. Don't go toooo dressy, it's still a mountain shot! My photographer made a point of mentioning how coordinated our colours were. Both together and with the scenery.

    Pops of bright blue/purple are great for nature shots. Try to avoid green/brown, it'll blend. Only have one of you in a print at a time (He had plaid in casual, I had floral in fancy). Keep it simple, no big jewelry/accessories.

    Also don't wear something brand new for the first time. I bought the romper new, but I wore it once the week before so I'd get used to it/break it in. Haha.

    It's going to be beautiful!!! Please share some photos when you get them!
