I received our engagement pictures today. :love:
We took them at Faust Park, a beautiful, beautiful park back in St. Louis. I had never been there before, but our photographer recommended it and I am so glad we went with it! It’s such a huge park and there’s so many trails and flowers and old buildings. Very picturesque!
I think we received about 180 pictures back. I was so overwhelmed at first because there were so many! I can’t believe how well they turned out, either. I wouldn’t consider myself (or Andrew either, haha) very photogenic – but I am so happy with how they turned out. I did notice that in almost all of them my hair is messed up, but I don’t think anyone can really tell except for me. 
I’m going to just share some of my favorites. 
Isn’t Andrew so cute? :love:
Since I have our pictures back now, I’m going to start working on our save the dates and start collecting addresses! We have to cut down our guest list a little more before anything though. We’re currently sitting at about 265 people and our max for our venue is 250. I never knew that the guest list would be so difficult! 
Nonetheless, I am so excited for this next stage of wedding planning.

YOU GUYS ARE ADORBS!!! GAAAAAAAH! Your photographer really knows where to take pictures cause the place is so picturesque (yeah, this is a picture but lol) Congrats to you and Andrew! Ohmygosh! 250 people is a lot aready! When I get married, I’ll probably have only 5 (yeah, I pretend to be a social recluse). Keep us posted about your wedding plans! <3
Congratulations! What a big milestone in your relationship and life! <33 You two look so adorable and happy!
(and your hair looks great!)
Congratulations! I absolutely love all these pictures that you’ve posted. I especially love the last few ones towards the bottom, in the forest. Awesome. I’m sorry that you guys have to cut the wedding list, but just let the ones that you had to cut know, they still are special to you.
Can I just say that though I don’t know you guys, seeing this post made me real happy. It’s the kind of thing that demands a heartfelt ‘awwwww’. I wish you a blast!!
