Nestled adorably with her aunt’s dog was the flower girl!!! It was a photograph I’d never taken before – underneath the head table, and that’s what I love about my job – finding the moments of each event to treasure.
Chris probably didn’t retain much “tour information” from their Hearst Castle Cottages and Kitchen Tour, since he had a box in his pocket and was anxiously awaiting the perfect moment to propose marriage! As the tour ended, he led his bride-to-be Ani to a secluded corner overlooking the rolling hills and majestic ocean. (I absolutely love being a secret agent – following couples until the big moment!) They are both architect students so being surrounded by Julia Morgan‘s designs – from Hearst’s guest houses, pools, and most of the grounds, was perfectly apropos. Ani was so surprised she cried with joy…I almost started too.
Rainy Day Wedding is good luck because it signifies that your marriage will last. A knot that becomes wet is extremely hard to untie – therefore, when you “tie the knot” on a rainy day, your marriage is supposedly just as hard to unravel!
Rainy, Sunny, Windy, Overcast… the beauty of the world is happening organically and embracing whatever the weather is for your unique wedding day, will keep spirits uplifted and united!
