for our evite announcement for the get together (DUTCH

) I can''t decide which picture to use for me and my little girl... (there is going to be a picture of me and my little girl, him and his little boy - he is finding one for me. after the wedding we will post the ''new family'' picture)
help girl?

I like the first and last photos best. I think you both look most beautiful in the first, but I love the playfulness of the last. The thing I don''t like about the first photo is yours dresses blend together such that it almost looks like you''re wrapped in a blanket. If you can crop it differently that may become my favorite. I''m just not sure. They''re all great photos and you and your daughter look fantastic in each

I like #2 and #3 -- depending on whether you want serious or playful. They are all beautiful!

 

[fountainfairfax]

What beautiful photos!!!! I think I like #1 the best but #3 is so cute, decisions, decisions....

 

[HOUMedGal]

#3 cuz it''s sooooooo cute!!!

 

[mistylark]

#3 all the way! how pretty you both are!

 

[MelissaSue]

oh, the middle is definitely my favorite, although they are all beautiful. If you want one to show you''re faces, I''d go with the frist one, I don''t like the third quite as much!

 

[flutterby]

I love the first one, you really look like you are having fun! you both are beautiful!

 

[LadyluvsLuxury]

They are all gorgeous but my fav is 2 and then 3!

 

[Kaleigh]

They are all very beautiful but I like #2, then #3.

 

[bling*diva*]

~~My favorites are #2 and then #1, they are all great pics though!!!

 

[Tybee]

These are such beautiful pictures!
When I first looked at them I thought clearly number 1 was the best, but after careful consideration, I loved the intimacy of number two. Then after careful reconsideration, I fell in love with three, because you both look so happy and like you''re having so much fun.
So, you see, I''m no help at all.
You really can''t lose with any of them.
You are two very beautiful women!!!!

 

[ello]

NO.1 - it has so much character! You guys are sooooo cute!!!!

2 and 3 are by far my favorites.

What mood do you want to capture...dreamy and beautiful, or joyful and spontaneous?

You''re both so beautiful...you really can''t miss with any of them..

[JessesGrl]

I love them all....great pictures, you are both so beautiful!!! I like #1 b/c it is playful and you see your faces really well

 

[flopkins]

oooh I like all three- what exactly is the evite for? (I''m sorry, I must have missed the thread or something) I think it depends what kind of mood you want to set for the party...

 

[Shay]

I like the 2nd one, it''s so elegant and you both look beautiful.

But I think you need to post the pic with your partner and his little boy so we can judge based on how well the pictures complement each other too!

 

[Angel7]

Wow you are both so beautiful.
I guess it depends on the mood like others were saying.
I like #3 the best but #1 and #2 are great as well.

Use them all!

 

[Hunali]

I like #3 the best b/c it''s so playful and brings an instant smile to the face! Although, all three pictures are great, I don''t know how you are going to pick just one.

 

[begin ing]

Thank you all for your wonderful compliments, you gals are too kind. make up does wonders on me...

- Shay - you are right, it would depend on the matching sets but

after careful consideration we are not going to use the pictures on the invitation…
We will not be announcing our marriage until the actual party.
It’s like a surprise party for our guests. This way they can come at ease and not feel obligated to bring ‘gifts’…or things…
It’s so hard to share happy news without friends and family asking where we are registering…

 

[Tybee]

Wow,
This sounds like a really interesting story! Please keep us informed. Your guests are sure to be surprised!

 

[BrightSpot]

What a fun idea to have a surprise post-wedding party! I''m sure your guests will have a great time! (And that''s very considerate of you to not obligate them to bring gifts.)

I love all of the photos you posted--hopefully you''ll frame one (or three!) of them. Maybe you could arrange them in some sort of collage on your wall?

 

[Erin]

If I were being invited by the groom I would appreciate #1 the most seeing more of your faces and personality.

 

[selflove]

I love your before/after idea! That is so personal and touching and loving and sweet!

I like #1 and #2 b/c you look so happy, like you are having a lot of fun together.
