We love a picnic as a romantic date; just bring your favorite snacks, your favorite person, and a cozy blanket to a pretty spot outside, and you're all set! And we love picnics as a theme for engagement photos even more. You can upgrade your basic picnic date by adding a few props that make sense for you as a couple, like vintage books or vintage suitcases, before heading to a grassy spot with your photographer. We're celebrating National Picnic Day on April 23 with these cute picnic engagement sessions.
