Neither. The pronoun "I" is capitalized.

I is a subject.
She is a subject.

Her is an object.
Me is an object.

Never, ever would the object "her" go with the subject "I."

She and I are going to the mall.
He wrote to both of us, to her and me.

What is the sentence you plan to use this in?

Thank you very much.
My actual sentence would be '' Only she and I who are going to the party.'' (It is a casual talk in a conversation).
Is this correct ?

Delete the word "who" and you're okay.

Of all the girls in the class, she and I were the only ones who were going.

Who leads off a clause, which will include a verb.
