My wedding is this Friday and it's forecasting rain. I know it's not a big deal to most but I can't help but think of how im going to get to the limo without soaking the bottom of my gown (it's big) and all of the photos I'm going to miss outside. We picked a castle to take pictures in front of and I'm really upset that it's most likely not going to happen. Sorry I just had to vent. I know it's going to be the happiest day of my life but I really am sad about the high possibility of not being able to get a lot of photos outside.

I'm getting married in June in Florida so there is a VERY high chance it will rain on my wedding day. It rains almost daily here during the summer, but it doesn't matter. Just be prepared and make the best of it. I'm actually also having an outdoor ceremony, but it's covered by a pavilion so people won't really get too wet. Try to stay positive. Wedding photos in the rain are some of the most beautiful!!!

I was going to suggest clear umbrellas too. I'd have them just in case. Maybe the forecast will change between now and the but if it doesn't, don't let it ruin your day. Make the best of it.

Get some clear or matching umbrellas. A lot of photographers like cloudy weather as there are no shadows and people are not squinting.
You can't control the weather - best wishes to you!

My photographers have umbrellas for a huge wedding party if needed. Some of my favorite photos are in the rain!

You can't change the weather, but after the ceremony and reception maybe allow the Hem of your dress to get a little bit wet?

I LOVE rainy day wedding pictures. They're so beautiful. Plus, isn't it good luck if it rains on your wedding day?

Maybe you can schedule another photo shoot with your photographer to capture pictures at the castle at a later date.

Take a deep breath, it will be okay! Even if it does rain, it may not be the whole day.
It rained for a few hours on my best friend's wedding day, and they ended up getting some of my favorite pictures while it rained. Have a clear umbrella on hand and don't stress too much.
I think these are all so beautiful!
