As a bride who had a beautiful outdoor wedding planned, all her guests seated outside and then all of a sudden it started DOWN POURING- I get it. The fear of the unknown when it comes to weather can be a huge stress for couples while planning their wedding day! BUT have no fear- with the right planning, an experienced wedding photographer, and the right mindset….your wedding day can still be beautiful even if it rains!

Tip #1: Have an indoor/covered space as a back up. This little spot at the Cleveland museum of Art was a life saver for Taylor + Samantha’s October wedding! The aesthetic and architecture that this building offered is a DREAM! That light! You would never know it was raining! 🙂

#2: Embrace the umbrellas! These are such a great way to still get those outdoor photos but not get wet 🙂 We can create so many gorgeous photos rain or shine…and I honestly wish I had some of these captures during my wedding day rain!

And lastly….let’s face it, in every wedding on the planet, there is probably SOMETHING that doesn’t go to according plan. But that doesn’t have to ruin your day! If you stay in the moment and roll with the changes, you’ll be able to cherish the memories of your wedding day instead of dwelling on the hiccups. As you can see in the photos, the weather can allow you to get gorgeous images while fully enjoying your day at the same time!
