When planning S + D’s Dallas engagement session, they mentioned that margaritas or wine nights are their favorite type of dates and they wanted to go for a fancy city vibe in classy bar. After a laundry list of some vibe-y bars around the Dallas Metroplex we finally landed on The Henry.
The Henry in Dallas provides a stunning backdrop with its chic and stylish decor, making for unique and sophisticated engagement photos. The restaurant’s sophisticated ambiance and stylish details make it an ideal location for capturing the romance and personality of S+D, or any engaged couple looking for a different engagement session location. Plus, its delicious food and cocktails can add an extra layer of fun and intimacy to the shoot.
Personally, I loved that S + D decided to think of a unique location for their engagement session that was true to them as a couple. Okay, hear me out. These venues are perfect for capturing your unique vibe and personality as a couple. And let’s be real, who doesn’t love a good date night at a cute little bistro or trendy cocktail bar? It’s time to show off your style and have some fun with your photos.
Think about it – a cozy coffee shop with your partner, snuggling up over some lattes and pastries. Or, picture yourselves on a swanky rooftop bar, overlooking the city skyline and sipping on some fancy drinks. The possibilities are endless and the photos will be totally epic.
And let’s not forget the chance to incorporate some food and drinks into the shoot! How about sharing a decadent dessert or sipping on a signature cocktail while snuggling up? These photos will not only be romantic and intimate, but they’ll also capture your personalities and interests as a couple.
Plus, engagement sessions at restaurants or bars can be a fun way to celebrate your relationship milestones. Maybe it’s the spot where you had your first date, or where you shared a special anniversary. Whatever the reason, incorporating these meaningful locations into your photos will add a sentimental touch that you’ll cherish forever.
So, let’s mix it up and make your engagement session a little more interesting. Get ready to laugh, flirt, and maybe even dance a little. Whether you’re foodies, cocktail enthusiasts, or simply looking for a non-traditional way to capture your love story, consider thinking outside the box and incorporating your favorite restaurants or bars into your engagement session. You won’t regret the unique and personalized images that will result!
In a true Hallmark movie love story, these two met at the Seattle airport! After their initial two hour conversation, exchange of numbers and social media, fast forward 3 years later they had their first date right here in Texas in 2020. Then two years later, D proposed at White Sands National Park in New Mexico where he is currently stationed. S reflected that “it was the most perfect day!! He proposed right as the sun was setting and whisked me away to the mountains for a dream cabin weekend getaway”. I see a Hallmark Christmas movie one day about their love story.
