Rainy wedding

I keep coming back to this rainy wedding in a California barn. The couple looks so blissful, and I'm in love with the bride's cream-colored wrap cardigan.

P.S. Apparently when they rowed to the middle of the lake, it was just a drizzle...then suddenly the skies opened up! What a cute candid moment.

  8. That girl is gorgeous! If I could have one speck of her beauty on my wedding day, I think I'd be satisfied.

    Also, she really has some guts rowing out into the lake wearing that white dress... If that was me, I wouldn't look glowing and happy, I'd look ashen and panicked. "Dont.Tip.The.Boat!"

  9. Ohh I agree, this is just far too pretty. She's absolutely stunning, but really it's her smile that gets me. She looks positively radiant and elated to be celebrating her new marriage. Love love.

  38. Thank you for sharing -- and what a breath of fresh air! There's a line from "The Lion in Winter": "Nothing in life has any business being perfect." This lovely, lucky couple seems to have taken that to heart and found something in the beauty of imperfection that will serve them well throughout their lives together.

  39. I love-love-love that first photo! Its so cute, it almost makes me want a rainy wedding! (But only almost)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Wow, definitely a risky move. As much as I love being enveloped in rain, in my wedding dress, the hair and make-up that I paid for, the shoes, and everything else, I don't think I'd be too happy. But then again, what can you really do? You can't exactly push back the event to the next day, might as well make it your best.

  41. So rad that they turned the rainy weather into something special...And I LOVE rowboats at weddings.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Beautiful wedding! My husband and I took wedding pictures in a rowboat - my hubby is brave, because he can't swim and all I thought about was having to jump in the lake in my wedding dress and pull him to shore.

    ReplyDelete
  43. oh my gosh she's adorable! so gorgeous!! and the wedding is amazing!

    ReplyDelete
  44. so precious! i'd like to imagine this is the first scene of a beautiful story they are starting together where they laugh and smile during all the rainy parts...:) the sweater is to die for!
