Rain, Weddings, Rose Sachswritten by dav.d

Umbrellas decorate the wedding ceremony at Rose Sachs

I learned man years ago from Boy Scouts – “Thou shalt be prepared!” Sunday I had the chance to photograph a wedding with Stacy from Three Winks Studios. We came bundled in coats and layers. We even had plastic bags to protect the cameras, lenses, and equipment.

And it was overcast and rainy all day. The wedding back up plan was to move the ceremony to a tent to shield people from the elements. And the decision was made that the wedding ceremony would indeed be outside in the grassy area overlooking the valley. And in spite of the rain it was gorgeous setting.

And to be honest – rain will make this wedding memorable. The bride and the groom will remember the dozens of family and friend who braved the rain and the cold to watch their love be sealed in marriage. I will never forget the wedding – that is for sure. And Rose Sachs is an absolutely gorgeous location for weddings. I hope I can photograph there again!

And to other photographers – be prepared! And I recommend using plastic garbage bags – I just poke a hole in the bottom of the bag to give the camera lens a spot to see through. And there is no shame in using plastic bags – you don’t want your equipment to malfunction in bad weather.
