You need a picture to accompany your "Save the Date," and that cute candid of you two smiling just won't do. If social media has taught us anything, it's that there are certain obligatory engagement photos you must recreate. So put on the uniform--boots and an ethereal dress--and get going!!

A few of you might have some questions, like, "Why are they all country themed?" "What if I live in Los Angeles?" "Why are there so many picture of isolated body parts?" and "When did this become a thing?" I can't answer your questions, because I think you just don't understand love in the time of Pinterest. But if you really don't want to recreate these exact photos, you can have your pictures taken at the beach, alongside some train tracks, or leaning against an old truck. <3
***Special thanks to the most wonderfully enthusiastic fake-fiancee a girl could dream of, male supermodel Matthew Hays, and our brilliantly talented and encouraging photographer, Jennifer Halligan, who gave us such on-point notes as, "Don't do that, it looks rapey."
