Even Rain Can't Ruin a Wedding

To this day, when brides and grooms get nervous about their weddings and the details, I find myself reminding them that their love is what counts. And when they are still unsure, I tell the story of Kyle and Jeannette.

Their day was planned at a castle – a beautiful garden entrance with those romantic winding stairs that would have been magical. And yet, the rain came and did not stop making the ceremony take place inside with intricate dark wood pillars to frame their wedding. After the bride and groom said “I do” and the bridal party exited the room to stand under an awning out front, the whole group decided to take some umbrellas and get a little silly in the rain. These ended up being my favorite photos from the day, full of genuine joy despite the rain.

So don’t worry about the what if’s. Just know that if you have the people you love around you, there’s no way your day won’t be uniquely yours and full of magic.
