E-Pic Help!

What the crap do I wear??? We are getting our e-pics done this Saturday and I am clueless. I seriously have been trying on so many different outfits for the last week and I'm positive I'm driving my FI crazyyy.

I'm want to wear something I'm comfortable in, but I want to look good, obviously haha How did you choose what to wear? Any tips would be greatly appreciated! :o)

    Where are you taking the pictures? That may help you choose--we took our engagements pics at the beach, so I wore jeans and a summer cardigan, FI wore a polo shirt and khakis. Since we were up to our knees in the waves it made more sense to not be super "dressed up". 
    Does that help?

    If its a hot summer day, maybe a sun dress?  I did mine in the fall so I wore colors that complemented the foliage.  Really something you feel good in.  BTW,  I am Courtney's friend Sam and I met you at her party :)

    I'd stay with something solid and not too busy.

    I think definitely a sundress or jeans... mainly something you are comfortable in but maybe a little more dressy than typical. I have talked to a lot of married friends who said they wore something completely out of character and when they saw the pictures, it didn't really look like them! The idea is non-formal, comfortable... exactly the portrait of YOU and your FI, as you could be caught in candid daily life.

    When we did ours, our photographer told us to bring a bunch of outfits. I kid you not, our Jeep was like a mobile wardrobe! I think we changed into 7 or 8 different outfits total. If this is an option, at least just do the basics - dress or skirt - capri's - and jeans. Good luck and have fun! It's such a blast!!

    I canNOT wait til we get a sneak preview of your e-pics!! I'm so excited for you!! FI and I did our e-pics at Elizabeth Park not too long ago and we're planning on doing our Blue Back Square/West Hartford Center pics in August.

    With that said... I think it totally depends on what kind of feel you'd like for your e-pics. If you're going for a more casual look, then I think a sundress and flats would be SO cute! If you'd like something more dressy, then a solid dress and pumps would work great, too!

    I like all the girl's suggestions.. just wear something comfortable that is you! Your pictures will look so natural and beautiful that way. When we did our e-pics last summer we wore three different outfits.. we did dressy pictures and then sports pictures.. one with matching football jerseys and the other was us wearing t-shirts of our favorite baseball players. I represented #46 of the Yankees Andy Pettitte and he represented Chris Iannetta from the Colorado Rockies.
