I voted for the Forest picture mostly because of the brighter coloring – I love all three pictures. I don’t know your exact decor and look you are going for in your living room, but for a living room I would gravitate more towards the brighter, lighter, more green picture.

I agree with Katy. I chose the forest b/c it is brighter and for me fits a living room better. I think the lighter colors are offer a more welcoming vibe. And that’s how I would want people to feel as they walk into my home.

I’d say go with a “company friendly” photo…the forest kiss is so sweet, but harder for company to comment on, enjoy, and feel comfortable sitting underneath.
The skyline is so classic, and more than just the two of you! Plus, you look like your having so much fun!

I agree with this.
But mostly, I just think that you both look SO GOOD in the ‘dramatic love’ shot – look at your beautiful profile, and TH’s smoldering eyes!

I was thinking along the same line when I voted. The skyline picture has more interest to it than just the two of you.

I love all 3 of them!! I voted #2

I voted for the skyline one because I love it; it’s so dramatic! But really, you couldn’t go wrong with any of them. Why are you not replacing your wrap with the picture you already had, though?

I’m going to write out the whole story when I get the new one, but basically they offered me a new print and said that they didn’t care if I ordered a different one. It didn’t make sense to me to order the same one and have two prints that look almost exactly the same (because the previous one is a mistake, yes, but it isn’t impossible to live with, you know? I just feel like if they are going to market to professional photographers that they need to be sending out prints of a certain quality and they aren’t), so I’m going to choose a different one for the living room (the other one that I ordered before is already hanging in our bedroom!)

That’s a good plan! It all depends how much you hated the first one, or if you could live with it. From a distance it’s gorgeous, so yeah! Hang it up!

I love the skyline photo! But that might be because I am partial to skylines… and my favorite photo from my own wedding is with the Philadelphia skyline in the background…

I’ve always LOVED the skyline one! But I don’t know the colours of kissing in the forest are spectacular. I guess it depends where you’re putting it! lol That wasn’t very helpful!

I like all three of them, so it was a hard decision. I ended up picking #2 because dramatic things are cool.

I’d go skyline myself. It has a lovely dramatic feel and would hold up really well in black and white too.

I looooooove skylines! definitely going with that one. I’ve seen some great skyline engagement photos taken around nashville – now i’m dying to have one of my own! (well newlywed photo).

*Love* them all but voted for skyline!! You two look so happy and in love…I hope Dr McDreamy and I are as happy as the two of you were on our wedding day!

Plus it shows Kelli’s talent. The lighting is so gorgeous. And you and TH look absolutely gorgeous.

I can’t see the Skyline one (it’s not showing up for some reason), so I chose the Dramatic one. Although the Kissing one is very romantic and cute, I think guests at your house would feel awkward sitting under a huge picture of you two kissing! That one’s better for the bedroom.

We chose to make a canvas print of a photo that shows the coastline where we got married… and I love it because it shows the setting so beautifully. I think your skyline one has those same great qualities… and it’s also stunning of you and TH!

I think the Seattle skyline pic is perfect is so many ways – the beautiful lights behind you and the happy look on your faces.
HOWEVER, I fear it may be too dark for your living room, but if that’s not a concern for you, go with that pic!

Definitely the Seattle Skyline photo

Voted for #1, it seems homey. But the skyline one would be a great conversation piece!

Jenna I chose the forest one. The black from the skyline one but be too dark when print and not show enough detail. My mom ordered a lot of gallery wraps from my wedding to show to clients and the colorful ones are definitely my favorite because the color just looks so much better than more of the darker colors.

I voted for forest too, because of what happened with the last one, I thought that these colors just might work better.

I think it kind of depends on your decor, but I LOVE the first one. I love all of them, but especially the forest one.

I agree. It totally depends on the theme that you have in your living room.
First Photo: If you have a warm look in your house.
Second or Third Photo: Modern, Great Gatsby Theme.
My favorite is the second one. Yet, if I had to choose it for my own home it wouldn’t match but the first would.

It would depend on your current living room decor. Something modern would get along better with either of the second two (and they might also print better, or at least hide weird blue outlines better
), but the first one would look more at home in a country living room. I voted for the second one, because it seemed like it would fit in better with either kind of living room.

I had trouble deciding between the forest and the skyline. I agree that the skyline may be more guest friendly, however, how well will the sharp angles of the building and the night lights look on canvas?
