Married in the Rain: Ashley & Taylor

Hair & Makeup: CaraSue Hall
Coordinator: Danielle from Soiree Event Designs
Ceremony: Loose Park
Reception: The Lodge at Ironwoods

To say that I was nervous about an outdoor wedding in Loose Park when there was a 60% chance of rain is an understatement. Especially since it had been raining all weekend, I thought Loose Park had to be a mud pit. But, just like every other wedding we've ever shot, it ALWAYS works out. There is always a wedding, and people always have a great time.

Which brings us to Ashley & Taylor. Their wedding had everything that makes us LOVE our job so much. A special first meeting, a fun bridal party, a beautiful outdoor ceremony (complete with a first kiss in an absolute downpour), to a fun party that ended with a sparkler exit. We enjoyed the day so much and hope you all like the images :)



Taylor waited patiently for his bride.


Note: Taylor is that sweet. This image was not posed in any way shape or form.




No rain, no rain!




You could say it was just a TAD bit humid. Just a little, though.

A little prayer before the ceremony.






Then the rain came POURING down literally a minute before their first kiss. Jenny and I have to apologize because we secretly wanted it to happen exactly like that :)




Grandma had LOTS of help :)



And it stopped raining so we could shoot a few more portraits. Thanks, rain!






A sweet sparkler exit.

Congrats, you 2!

Thanks, Beth! I hope they LOVE em as much as I do :)
Awesome images Josh. Aren't weddings in the rain fun? Shot one in all day pouring rain at Powell Gardens earlier this summer. The bride was actually HAPPY about the rain... she says rain on your wedding day is good luck. Tell that to pricey camera gear. ;o) But makes for some fun images none-the-less.
