Red vs. Blue Engagement

by Lucky Red Hen on November 30, 2006

These were taken Saturday… the big Red vs. Blue day (Utah State vs. BYU, I think that’s right). This couple did NOT plan what they would wear for their engagement photo shoot and showed up ready for a Coke vs. Pepsi fight LOL. I should’ve worn orange for Sunkist. I might’ve been Sprite that day. Can’t remember because I was too busy thinking about drinks.

They only have 2 pictures of them together; one from Halloween a year ago and another at a football game a year and a half ago! Anyway… this gal runs Precious Pet Paradise grooming salon in American Fork (where we take Posie regularly). If you have a pet that needs beauty services I highly recommend this place – they’re so sweet to the animals. Posie loves to go… runs right in to them!

I had fun with these two. They’ll legally wed before the end of the year for tax purposes then have a party the beginning of 2007 :o) They weren’t sure about posing and being photogenic but I absolutely LOVE how these turned out! Here’s a sampling of a few…


















Q: If you and your significant other were going to represent your favorite beverages… what colors would you wear?

I may have said this before, but I do love it when you post your pictures!If we were wearing colors for our favorite soft drinks my “I-don’t-usually-drink-carbonated-beverages” (the same one who always make me fork over $2 for a stinkin’ soda when I buy him dinner) husband would wear a combo of green, blue and yellow for Sprite. (Did I tell you I made my daughter a Sprite can costume for Halloween?)I, however (the one who truly rarely drinks soda) would be wearing a lovely shade of Dr. Pepper red.Unless BYU happened to be playing Utah that day…

My favorites are 3,12, 14, and 19. I think we know what color I’d be and you could see right through my husband (water) or he’d wear dr pepper red whether or not byu is playing.

I would be in brown (chocolate milk) and my husband would be in yellow (lemonade). We are not big soda drinkers. Apparantely, judging by our beverage choices, we have the palates of most elementary school kids.

I am stephanie garnder’s sister, Noelle. I love the pictures. I love the contrast of her beautiful hair compared to his absence of it. and if we were drinks…i too would be a nice milky brown and looking quite hot (for hot chocolate) and my husband would be just brown and fuzzy (any pop will do for him).

I’d wear light brown for Pero and J would wear dark brown for COLA because he is a COLA-head.Luckyzmom – you can’t get rid of the garbage can, but as you can see, it’s only on your comments. It allows you to delete your comment if you make a mistake. You’re the only one who can see the garbage can on your own posts.

sue-donym December 1, 2006 at 10:07 pm

What a great couple. Love the one’s on the boat dock. I would be dark brown – Diet Coke Junkie(I think my blood runs this color now) Sugar Free kool aid (any color) for the hubbie – weird.

These are so fun! They look like a great couple. I love the one 2 from the bottom where he is picking her up as her arms are in the air. Great job!

Wow. What fun. Why didn’t I think about beverage colors when I got my engagements done? Some people are just thinkers.

LRH, you really caught this couple’s love for each other. They look like they are having so much fun. What a beautiful place to have engagement pics taken. Can’t beat those Utah mountains.I would wear grapefruit colored clothes (ZipFizz) and D would wear bright orange (OJ).
