33 Engagement Photo Ideas & Tips from Our Favorite PhotographersWedding photographers shared their favorite engagement photos — and their top tips and tricks on how to nail your own pre-wedding photography session.By Gabriella Rello REPLAYEngagement photos are the perfect opportunity to get to know your photographer while getting comfortable in front of the camera — not to mention, they're the perfect chance to show off your personality as a couple. While these pre-wedding portrait sessions are supposed to be fun, it's no secret that stepping before a professional camera for the first time often elicits a mixed bag of emotions from both the future bride and groom alike. But here's the scoop all photographers want you to know: in addition to walking away with a seriously stunning collection of portraits (and how often do you really get the chance to pose for gorgeous shots with your guy?), you'll get plenty of face time with the one person you'll spend the majority of your wedding day with.
That's right: when you think about it, your wedding photographer is the person who will be with you from getting ready straight through your reception exit, so getting to know them, feeling sure about their style and personality, and creating a genuine relationship will only result in more beautiful photos on the big day. And giving them the time to get to know you, your best angles, and how you work in front of the camera is invaluable.
But aside from the nitty-gritty, the heart and soul of an engagement photo session is truly about celebrating the beginning of this next chapter of your lives. You'll be married for a long time, but the engagement period typically lasts just about a year, so savor this special time and create tangible reminders of these special moments.
To help you prep for your own engagement photo session, we tapped into our arsenal of pro wedding photographers and asked them for their tips, tricks, and secrets for nailing the best snaps. Here, they share their favorite engagement photos and the details behind the frame. Photo: "Anthony and Hannah were so much fun to photograph during their engagement shoot on the California coast, styled by the talented Ginny Au. As a couple, they have a natural ease about them, and we worked to bring out the authentic joy and connection within their relationship during the shoot. One of the best ways to do this is to encourage the couple to interact naturally during the shoot, using general overarching direction for movement and action, but then allowing them to go through those motions at their own pace and in their own way. Each couple moves and interacts differently, and giving them the space and flexibility to do so during their engagement shoot cultivates an ease and genuine sense of intimacy that translates beautifully through photos." — Erich McVey

Invitations and Stationery for a Destination WeddingWhether you're saying your "I do's" on top of the Rockies, in a seaside ceremony, or halfway across the world, these destination wedding invitations will get your guests packing their bags.By Jamie Cuccinelli REPLAYSome say there's no place like home. Well, those people clearly have never been to someone's destination "I do's!" For adventurous couples or those who just crave their toes in the sand, a destination wedding is the ultimate way to tie the knot. Whether your "I do" locale includes fruity cocktails, sunshine, mountaintop views, or ocean breezes, away from home locations make for the ultimate wedding venue. But just how does a bride invite her guests to pack their bags for a far away wedding? Why, with on-theme destination wedding invitations, of course!
Sure, all destination brides may have a love for wanderlust, but not all have the barefoot-on-the-beach wedding dream. Fit for venues as unique as your own bridal style, these destination wedding invites are just the thing to get your guests excited for your mountaintop nuptials, countryside ceremony, international reception, or beachy big day. From travel themed wedding stationary — like boarding pass inspired save-the-dates and passport replicas — to tropical invites in red hot hues, we've collected a slew of suites perfect for your "I do" destination.
Big city bashes will love Bella Figura's gold foil pressed cityscape stationery. While Mospens Studio's message-in-a-bottle invites are guaranteed to call your guests to the sandy shores for a coastline ceremony. Saying your vows on top of the Rockies? Flower & Bone's watercolor-illustrated Colorado cards are just the thing.
No matter where you're tying the knot, these destination invites will have your guests cashing in their vacation days, packing their bags, and booking their tickets to your destination "I do's!" Don't forget your passport! Photo: Vintage Bahamas save-the-date postcard, price upon request, Copper Willow

7473 Amazing Ceremony StructuresFrom floral arbors to rustic wooden chuppahs, there are plenty of ways to create a gorgeous backdrop for your vows.
By Gabriella Rello and Christina Park
REPLAYSince your vows are one of the most photographed moments of your entire wedding, it's important to put some serious thought into your ceremony altar. Whether you're tying the knot in a grand ballroom or barn, finding the right type of structure that fits the space and vibes with your wedding aesthetic can be a tough task.
Luckily, we found 73 picture-perfect ceremony structures for every single type of bride and venue. Are you a romantic girl marrying in a garden? You'll love a lush floral arch. Leaning towards more of a bohemian feel? Cool, colorful altars adorned with whimsical streamers give off an eclectic, artsy effect. Consider saying "I do" in front of a fireplace or wooden creation if you're throwing a more rustic celebration. From the traditional to the unexpected, there are countless ways to decorate at the end of the aisle.
Also, remember that choosing a statement-making ceremony structure will completely transform your space. Not to mention these pretty pieces will make for some seriously stunning photos. Plus, if you focus on creating an incredible area to say "I do," you'll be able to get away with more understated décor along your aisle. We recommend pairing these creative altars with a simple, petal-lined aisle or place a few potted arrangements every few seats to keep the focus on the grand finale.
Get inspired by our favorite ceremony altars for your own wedding day!
