Outfit for engagement pics?????

I'm stumped. My FH is wearing dark jeans, sketchers and a royal blue button down shirt. He will look adorable. They keep telling us 'casual' and 'dark' because it is a white background. Is a skirt with flip-flops to casual???? Any suggestions? Do I have to match him exactly?

I think a skirt and flip-flops are perfect, they're exactly how I would interpret 'casual'!!

It depends on what look you are going for... I think a skirt and flip flops sounds great! In regards to color, you don't have to match him perfectly, but pick something that complements him. If he is wearing royal blue, then maybe you should wear another shade of blue or something neutral...

Have fun

I would say that would look cute! I wouldn't match exactly. I'd say try to compliment each other. No matter what make sure your comfortable - if you're uncomfortable or not into your outfit that will show through and look stiff in your pictures. Have fun! can't wait to see them!

Ditto! FH and I both wore jeans and shoes (no sneakers) and he had a white button down shirt on and I had a black top on. We were comfy.
