If there were ever a time to get fancy, it's now: you're engaged, girl! Break out a sparkly black dress and white cocktail gloves for the occasion, while your fiancé gets buttoned up in a tux. Then find an elaborate staircase, give them your hand, and boom — you've nailed the perfect shot.

You'll likely be dancing at your wedding anyway, so why not announce it by dressing like these pros? Baby's pink dress is sweet, simple, and something that never goes out of style, while there's a good chance Johnny's all-black look is somewhere in your SO's closet. Now the only thing to worry about is that lift.

If you're trying to keep things cute and casual, their sexy rehearsal is your scene! Turn an old pair of jeans into cutoffs, knot a white top, and tell your Johnny to rock all black (again). Done and done.

Like Johnny, Danny's also got a thing for black outfits — easy! — but Sandy is a bit more complicated. Channel her with an off-the-shoulder top, leather pants, and heeled mules. Later you can even add a cheesy caption to your snap that quotes "You're the one that I want."

The Girl and Richard in The Seven Year Itch

Marilyn Monroe fans know this iconic scene well, and with a flowy white dress plus a fan, it'll be easy enough to re-create. Just make sure you lean toward classic rather than costume (it's a good idea to skip the blond wig), then let your honey stand beside you in a beige suit and fedora.

Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio

It's not a movie scene, but they're well-known outfits all the same. Dress like this famous couple by rocking a white dress, boa, and pair of gloves, while your SO wears a suit — or a baseball uniform if they dare!

Molly and Sam From Ghost

This scene is as mushy as they come, but it's your day — you're allowed to be mushy! All you'll need is a white shirt for you, a pair of jeans for your fiancé, and a piece of clay if you really want to get technical.

Holly and Paul From Breakfast at Tiffany’s

If you consider yourself the classiest of couples, why not go with Holly's LBD style from Breakfast at Tiffany's? Once you've got the midlength dress, tie a scarf around a wide-brim hat and add black shoes. Your fiancé should also look dapper in a light three-piece suit complete with a tie.

Sabrina and David From Sabrina

Sabrina and David From Sabrina

If you can't wait until your wedding day to take photos in a white gown, Sabrina is another classic Audrey Hepburn film with great style to copy. Her elegant patterned number is only elevated by white cocktail gloves, and David's look is dapper with a white jacket and black pants.

John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy

John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy

These outfits have been re-created time and time again — in movies, for Halloween, etc. — but there's a good reason: Jackie's structured-yet-feminine pink set flatters every body type, while JFK's black suit will always be a classic. Now if only you could find a private plane, your photos would be ones for the history books.
