I'd go with the 16x20. I think the 11x14 will look pretty small for a big wall piece. I have a 16x24 canvas up and that still looks a little small to me.
I think it depends on how much space you have on the wall and where you plan to hang the photo. If the framed photo is going on a big wall, then go with the 16x20. Maybe try cutting out (or taping together) paper in both sizes and see how it fits in the space. It's a great photo! :)
First of all, this picture is awesome. I say go for 16x20 (or larger!) It would make a great statement piece in that size.
If you're worried about the print being bigger once you frame it, have you considered printing to canvas or metal? Then you can print the pic in a 16x20 size and it won't need to be framed
Thanks for the feedback! It's good to know that size can look small on a wall. I'm going to go for it! Thanks again. :)
I recommend minimum 11x14 for headshots, 16x20 for full length, and up to 24x36 for environmental portraits which this is. What is the size of the wall and the usual viewing distance? A good size for on top of a sofa is 16x24, ontop of a fireplace 20x30. You really can't go too big.
I'm having a 24 x 36 of our favorite wedding pic done in canvas to go on one of our living room walls.
Keep in mind too that a 16x20 will crop that shot by 4 inches on the side.
@continuumphotography: You're right and one of the things I like best about this photo is the background. The site my photographer has set up to order doesn't go larger, but I may order the large print via mpix so I can get a bigger size.
I've added a poll for canvas or framed print. I do like the look of canvas prints, but I am unsure if it would be better to have this particular picture a bit more traditional.
That is a beautiful photo! The background and the fact that the two of you are looking towards each other, rather than the camera would make a beautiful canvas --as large as you want!
If the two of you were looking straight at the camera, it may be too intense to have extremely large, IMO. I want a similar photo of me and the husband-to-be to hang as a huge canvas, but the focus is not just us, but the beautiful landscape too.

We are looking to have a nice print done of our favorite wedding picture so it can be matted, framed, and placed in our home. I am leaning towards a 16 x 20, but am not sure if it's too big. The other option is 11x14. Has anyone had a picture printed in either of these sizes? I know once we mat and frame it will be much larger, but it would be a showcase picture for us. Thoughts? Here is the picture we are looking to have printed and framed.
