Connections to hits like Glee become stronger as you find your own relationship growing while watching Kurt and Blaine fall head over stylish heels in love. To incorporate that special bond into your big day, a themed engagement photo shoot can perfectly (and creatively!) display its importance to family and friends.(Plus, we’re stoked about Glee‘s spring premier tonight!)THE SETTINGHave a mutual love for showtunes? Tap into your inner Rachel Berry and get into the spotlight, literally. Check out a local high school and see if they\u2019ll grant you access to their amenities. The theater stage, an empty classroom or the hallways lined with lockers would be perfect backdrops. Your local community theater would work well to stage those more performance-centered shoots. For a more song specific setting, the steps of a local library or park would be great to embody the Somewhere Only We Know moments.OUTFITSWe\u2019re huge Gleeks here at Equally Wed, but as much as we love the characters\u2019 exact style, each look should be interpreted to work for you and your main squeeze.Rag and Bone revealed the Bromley Blazer ($495) as part of their women\u2019s 2012 collection, a dashing navy blue  blazer with red trimming that is eerily similar to heartthrob Blaine\u2019s  private school days\u2019 ensemble. To correspond to Blaine\u2019s current  fashionable freedom, try a Polo Ralph Lauren sweater vest ($79.50), or a D&G polka-dotted bow tie ($170) from their 2012 men\u2019s accessory line. Boyfriend Kurt takes many  more fashion risks in his wardrobe choices, most often seen wearing  bright colors, scarves and hats. D&G 2012 men\u2019s accessory line also  revealed a savvy paisley patterned hat ($245) which would be perfectly represent Kurt\u2019s flare without duplication. Louis Vuitton\u2019s Lezard Stole ($860) or trendy 2012 Prada white leather shoes (available on the Raffaello Network for $525) would be great fashion accents.Cheerleader bombshells Brittany and Santana have developed a deep  relationship in the current season. This spring 2012 Zac Posen red dress  (available at net-a-porter.com for $3,400) would be great to parallel the Glee cheerleading look because of the pleating and the modest neckline. Louis Vuitton\u2019s 2012 Slalom leather sneakers ($660) and the Gucci\u2019s white wedge ($575) resemble the girl\u2019s cheerleading shoes. Both Brittany and  Santana usually wear high ponytails, but try adding personal pizazz by  wearing an accessory like this flower hair clip by Petit Plume (available at Ruche for $22.99).For a dose of high school nostalgia, earn your letter in couture by  pairing your engagement shoot ensemble with a varsity jacket, a look  that graced several menswear Spring\/Summer 2012 runways, with options  from Rugby Ralph Lauren (Wollast Varsity Jacket, $168), Alexander McQueen (Logo Varsity Jacket, $385) and Tommy Hilfiger (Varsity Jacket, $598).PROPSTo save time and money, turn your engagement shoot into a save-the-date session. Use school-inspired props to let loved ones know of the big day: textbooks turned to pages with the dates scripted on them, music sheets displaying the day and time dotted along the staff, your wedding date scribbled across a chalkboard, a close-up shot of an old-fashioned love note with the destined date being passed between the two of you (check yes or no!), or cheerleading signs announcing when and where the big moment will be."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Gleefully in Love: Ideas for a Glee-Inspired Engagement Shoot","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/gleefully-in-love-ideas-for-a-glee-inspired-engagement-shoot\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
