White Summer Dress

A classic summer engagement outfit is a little white dress. Paired with your partner in a button-down dress shirt, the two of you will mimic the bridal look. This is a look that always turns out beautifully in your summer engagement photos. As it gives a timeless and elegant look to any location and creates a more formal gallery.

Demin

A trend that is thriving this summer is denim! Whether you are leaning into the classic 90s look or choosing a more modern-day style. Denim is a popular and comfortable summer engagement outfit idea. Commit to the look with a cute denim dress, or bring a denim jacket to add a little bit of variety between outfits. You can even just wear a pair of jeans and a simple white t-shirt to give your session a more casual, carefree vibe! Either way, you are sure to look great!

Colorful Maxi Dress

Add a fun and flirty look to your summer engagement session with a little bit of color! A colorful maxi dress can be played up for a more formal photo shoot. Or can be dressed down for a more casual and relaxed look. And when you choose a silhouette that compliments your figure, this look becomes one that will stand the test of time!

Elegant Cocktail Attire

You’re having portraits taken with your fiancé, you likely had your hair and makeup professionally done as well. Why not go all out and dress up in elegant, cocktail attire? I personally love the dressed-up look in a pretty outdoor setting. Plus you’ll look even more amazing for a night out to dinner following your engagement session!

These summer engagement outfit ideas are classics that will look great in every photo! Giving you a timeless and elegant look, allowing you to enjoy them now and decades down the line.
