So I'm bored and would like opinions...

I think #1 is cute

[Marilyn. 340]

I like #1 too...

[trillium13 84]

My vote is for number one also. It's adorable, and in all honesty, I think it's much more flattering to you both. Number 2 looks like a generic vacation photo or something.

another vote for number 1

i think its romantically adorable

[scandal 951]

Oh, and yes I expect some snarky comments bring it on!

none. looks like you're bragging

What do you mean?

Nessa just gave you what you requested, the expected snarky comment. Any further questions?

[Scott & Lai 12]

Definitely #1. More flattering, romantic, and the pose and b/w give it a classy and nostalgic feel

oh, haha. I forgot about that; it's a one-liner that I always post before posting in the Seattle LJ (livejournal) group because they regularly eat people alive and posting that sort of thing helps appease them. I don't usually post in OT but know this forum can be a bit like that too and was just covering my bases; guess I forgot...

#1

two things

- yes, maybe one where they can see your eyes

- black and white/sepia photos with a frame always look like funeral photos to me

other than that, cute not show-off

Perhaps I am old fashion, but prefer the one on the right so people can recognize your faces. We didn't send out photos of our invitation, but hundreds were taken during our wedding and reception. Our AOS officer enjoyed looking at them and we were kissing in some of the photos.

[dakay ♥ 10]

You both look great together!

There are no other options? The first one is nice, but not for a wedding invitation

[chri'stina 190]

#1 of the two. I think when people receive it they'd say "aww, aren't they cute?".

oh, haha. I forgot about that; it's a one-liner that I always post before posting in the Seattle LJ (livejournal) group because they regularly eat people alive and posting that sort of thing helps appease them.

They try to eat people alive here too, I think you were wise to try to cover your bases.

I don't think Nessa was being snarky. She often favors economy of phrasing that may appear to be--er--lacking tact in some instances, tho.

Regarding the pics, I like #2 because it looks real and informal, and you're both grinning. #1, while certainly classic (some might say cliche--sorry!), has a more formal, posed feel to it. I think I might be a bit unusual in that I don't really like formal, posed photography generally. I think a more natural set-up makes a better and more genuine picture. But I see I'm in the minority here.

They're both nice shots!

[Revenesque 2]

Definitely #1 for a romantic action pose!

[Dave and Helena 0]

I like the first one, though personally I would not have pictures on my wedding invitation at all. I'd save the photos for the "Thank you" notes after the wedding but that's just me. Other than that I like the first photo better.

[Danu 19]

I'm going to side with the others, I like #1 best as well
