I was so lucky to spend a blissful Saturday a couple of weekends ago shooting Frankie and Matt's amazing wedding at the GORGEOUS Bacara resort in Santa Barbara with Rich and Christine of Yodsukar Photography.
While expecting a beautiful, outdoor ceremony overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the rain decided to make a very un-welcomed (and very rare) appearance and force us indoors for the day. Now, think of some of those people you know and how they might react to such news on their highly anticipated wedding day...I did. I know more than a handful of people who would have cursed the weather and spent the day wondering what could have been rather than what was.
But...
The rain did not dampen the spirits of this wonderful couple one bit. They were just happy to be getting married and happy to have one another for eternity. I loved their perspective about the importance and significance of the day, and crying about a rainy wedding day was not on the agenda. What was on the agenda were many tears of joy, lovely, heartfelt embraces, one hundred very close knit family and friends, an amazing and fun reception and beauty all around.
The rain only added to the beauty...

Frankie and Matt, you guys simply wowed me with your grace and love for one another. I wish you a lifetime of all of the things present on your wedding day...but perhaps a little less rain :)
