Hey lovebirds! So, your big day is coming up, and the forecast is predicting rain! Don’t worry at all! With a little prep time and a positive attitude, you can turn this weather into an incredible backdrop for your wedding photos. Here’s how to make the most of it:

1. Don’t Panic! Embrace the Weather

First off, don’t see rain as a setback. Think of it as a unique twist that can make your wedding photos extra special. Rain can create a magical, dreamy atmosphere that’s simply stunning!

2. Prepare Your Outfits

Make sure you’re dressed for the weather:

- Footwear: Consider wearing boots or cute sneakers, at least for the outdoor shots. They can look super cute and keep your feet dry! or you can just run with wet toes in gorge heels who cares!

- Shawls and Jackets: Elegant shawls, wraps, or fur jackets can keep you warm and add some glam to your look.

- Coordinated Accessories: Scarves, gloves, and hats can be both functional and so sweet!

3. Use Props to Your Advantage

Rain can be part of the fun:

- Umbrellas: Clear umbrellas not only keep you dry but also look adorable in photos!

- Blankets: Cozy up with a blanket for some intimate, warm shots.

- String Lights: If it’s winter, string lights can add a warm, romantic glow.

4. Find Sheltered Spots

Scout for locations that offer some cover:

- Porches and Gazebos: These spots provide shelter and still allow you to enjoy the outdoor scenery.

- Trees and Archways: They can offer partial cover and add interesting elements to your photos.

5. Enjoy the Moments

Some of the best photos come from these candid, spontaneous moments!:

- Laughter: Let loose and have fun in the wintery weather! You’ll laugh looking back, no doubts about it.

- Intimate Moments: Sharing an umbrella or cuddling up for warmth can create some incredibly sweet shots.

6. Trust Your Photographer aka ME!

Your photographer knows how to make the most of the weather:

- Natural Light: Overcast skies provide soft, flattering beauty light.

- Reflections and Details: Rain puddles and droplets can add beautiful details to your photos.

7. Be Flexible with Your Schedule

If the weather is really intense, be open to adjusting your photo schedule:

- Before or After Ceremony: There might be windows of better weather for your outdoor shots, so remain open to change!

- Indoor Options: Have a backup plan for indoor locations where you can still capture great moments. Having a plan B will put your mind at ease.
