We are so excited to share Kate and William’s Rainy Day Wedding with you! Their ceremony took place up on Burritt on the Mountain which is the BEST venue for rainy days! The rain made everything so gorgeous and romantic with the fog it created. One of our favorite things about Kate and William is they are truly up for anything! Kate messaged us a couple days before her wedding freaking out because it was supposed to rain. We told her take a deep breath, go get some umbrellas and rain boots and we will make it work. She never second guessed up and her’s are still some of our favorite images.! Trusting us let us create some truely unique wedding images for them!
When we asked Kate her favorite part of the day, she said: “Well that’s super easy! Hearing William say his vows. We wrote our own vows and we kept them from each other until our wedding day. Williams vows were so perfect. He’s such a special man! I am one very lucky girl. My second favorite part was my “father-daughter first look pictures”. It was so nice to have a private second with my dad before the ceremony. I’ll treasure that moment and those pictures forever.”
Here’s some other fun information from them!
Advice to other brides: Don’t get caught up in the details! I had to get a new dress two weeks before my wedding (thankfully Finery saved me), it poured down rain on my wedding day which caused us to rearrange everything! In all seriousness, just relax drink a mimosa and look fabulous because at the end of the day you’re getting married!!
