Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

Hi...we are getting married in 28 days!! And we haven't had our engagement pictures taken. We are using Patken. Is this a big deal? Should we try and go before the wedding or is it too late?
Thanks!
Jamie

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We're not doing it. First we've been engaged like three years,second we are over 30, and finally we already have a baby. I think the picture thing is more for new young couples.

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We got engaged Christmas Eve and are getting married in June so I didn't bother having it done. We will have a casual pic taken and framed to be signed at the wedding - Thanks LIW for the info

Not a big deal at all! My MOH (also used Patken) and had planned her wedding in 3 1/2 weeks, so they did not have time for an engagement shoot!

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We didn't do it. We wer also only engaged for less than a year, & we weren't doing a formal announcement in a newspaper, so I didn't really have any use for them.

They were engaged for a year and were going to get married after buying their house, but HIS parents wanted their last names to be the same on the deed so they got married before the closing (about 2 mos before). His parents paid for the hall, so she really could not complain!

No engagement picture for us -- we felt it was a waste of money.

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

Honestly, I haven't even thought of engagement pics. I am not even having an engagement party. I would much rather save my money for my wedding.

We didn't have an official one done, but we used one that we took Christmas Eve morning after we got engaged.

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We are not having pics done ..... Noone said you need to have it done ... do what you want too..... But if it is part of your package I would make sure they do them either before or after...

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

I am having a friend who is a photographer take some casual shots of us just for the sign in board at the reception. But we only have to pay for the film. Its part of his wedding present.

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

None for me. I have plenty of pics of us dating. If I need a couple pic I use one of those. No need to spend more money IMHO :)

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We are not doing engagement photos. I don't see the point. Like other people have said, I would rather put my money elsewhere. We have so many good photos to use that are free!

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We didn't do engagement pictures. Would've been nice, but I found better uses for the money. If you already paid for it though, I would definitely get them done - before the wedding!

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We didn't either--it was included-so we just negotiated for more pictures in the album instead-you might want to try that

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

I'm not doing engagement pictures too, and I'm also using Patken. I feel as if too much time has passed and people already know about the wedding. I'm just going to use those pictures in my album.

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

nah it's not something that we found necessary to do beside the fact that neither of us like getting our pics taken - it's going to be more than enough on the day of the wedding

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We didn't do it either. Sometimes I wish we had, but then I wonder what I would do with the pics since we'll have so many wedding pics around the house once we're married. And like a few of the other girls said, we've been together for over 5 years and already have so many pics together! And the money is being spent elsewhere.

Re: Anyone NOT have engagement pic done??

We did, but only because FMIL wanted us to, and paid for them.

I don't think you really need them, nothing to stress over
