From the Photographer… You would never know by looking at their photos that it poured rain at Hayley and Joel’s wedding. The rain was threatening all day and in the middle of their ceremony it broke. Pouring rain for the last half of the wedding ceremony that continued all through the night due to a tropical storm. But it didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits and the wedding party continued. We decided to shoot the bride and groom portraits a separate day (when the sun was shining) a few days after the wedding instead. Hayley’s love of bright and cheery colors carried through to her wedding design. The florals were gorgeous and matched her pink and green wedding invitations and the arch design at the ceremony.
