Our daughter was married on October 15 during the storm of the century in the PNW. It rained all morning but as we were heading to the wedding site the rain stopped, there were 2 rainbows, and the wind died down. A few minutes after the ceremony ended the storm started up again The reception site was changed at the last minute & their wedding party stayed up all night decorating a barn that belonged to a friend of a friend. We had to drive around downed trees to get there. Wedding guest in dresses & suits moving trees out of the roadway. The power to the barn came back 15 minutes before everyone arrived. It was an amazing day with great people and lots of love. My daughter and I designed her dress and I made it for her. There is a detachable train but she doesn't have it on in these photos.

Gorgeous! I think a bit of craziness makes for long lasting memories.
I said "a bit". Glad it all worked out.

She is gorgeous and I love the first pic. Sounds like it was an adventure, but it all worked out. They will have stories about their wedding to tell for years.
