A Rainy Day Wedding . . . . Beautiful!

Looking out at the snow today -- it's so pretty and makes everything look so peaceful.   I do love snow this time of year!!  Before we know it, we will be heading into spring (I'm sure some of you are hoping for sooner than later!) which makes me think of spring showers and a wedding I had last May during which a dandy storm came through!

While bride Kelcie had her heart set on an outside wedding under a big tree in the yard of her parent's house, rain soaked the ground not too long before the ceremony, so we moved the wedding to the huge tent they had rented for the reception.

Despite the rainy weather, Kelice married her groom, Rob, in a lovely ceremony and fun reception with about 130 friends and family in attendance!  Kelcie and Rob's love for each other glowed and they are such a delightful couple!

The groomsmen were so sweet to carry the train of her dress so it wouldn't go through the very wet grass!





A Hawk swooped into the tent to deliver the rings for the bride and groom!




Blessing of the wedding rings.






The rain stopped during the ceremony and allowed for gorgeous outside photos of Kelcie & Rob!
 



Amazing picture of the night sky, after the rain storm!
(I think this picture is my favorite!)


Placecards and table decor!





A Wishing Tree for guests to leave their best wishes to and for the happy couple!
