“Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain”
…….oh and “DANCED” we did!!!
I want to share a little bit about some of our most favorite images and one of our most favorite wedding weekends.
The wedding weekend took place at a little place with so much charm called Herrington on the Bay.
We arrived to the sweetest little group of water front cottages, welcomed by an old fashion porch rocker and the sounds of trickling water fountains throughout.
The wedding party and guests were hosted in an almost a (back in time atmosphere) of a village by the bay.
I can’t even explain how very sweet this hidden gem is. Corey and I will definitely be returning on our own.
Our room over looked the most beautiful water and beach view, Rike and Rick took such great care of us.
Rehearsal night was beautiful, no rain in sight….but the rains that fell the follow day for their wedding day was almost as if someone was holding an overflowing watering can over us throughout the day. No I’m sorry, let me change that to pouring a watering can over us. haha
The thing is in all honesty, pouring rains were NOT going to stop us.
We had a VISION for this stunning couple and we were going to get it for them no matter what it took….and indeed we did.
This stunning couple are not only clients, but they are friends.
We met Rick years ago within the music industry, shortly followed meeting his beautiful Rike.
We had no idea one day we would be documenting the most beautiful, important day of their lives together….but were truly honored.
They are not only beautiful on the outside, but also have the biggest hearts ever!
Always asking if we were ok, if our equipment was ok, never once being concerned of their own well being.
It was truly an amazing thing to witness.
Now, this blog can not go without mentioning their amazing family and friends!
So sweet, so welcoming and seemed so grateful to have us there.
It’s an amazing feeling at the end of the night to give hugs goodbye to people who only a day ago were strangers.
As you can see, I could go on and on about this perfect wedding weekend…..but instead I will let the Images Now Speak for Themselves.
I will however leave you with this quote from the bride herself…
“I didn’t care about the rain at all even though I thought I would be loosing it whenever I thought of possible rain.
For us it really became the best day of our lives!”
Yes we may have literally poured the rain out of our cameras, yes we may have towel dried every connection, yes we may have had wet socks….but in the end,
the above quote is what means “everything” to us.
PLEASE EXCUSE THE OH SO MESSY WET HEADED ERIN it’s a WRAP, BUT IT’S ONE I WILL NEVER FORGET AND CHERISH ALWAYS!!!
No matter how crappy I may have looked, it was sooooo worth it to Dance in the Rain with Rick & Rike
We Love you BOTH!!!
