nick + rochelle came all the way from rainy london to get married + got drenched on their wedding day…06.12.2012

before living in NYC, i lived in seattle for 8 years… i never owned an umbrella in seattle… while it does rain often there, it’s just more of a drizzle.  my first month in nyc, i think rained more than my entire 8 years in the pnw… + i remember being just shocked at the way it could rain here.  torrential downpour barely comes close to a description.  i had to buy an umbrella that first month, + have used it far more in my short time in ny, than in my 8 year tenure in seattle.  anyways, i diverge.  nick + rochelle flew all the way from london with 15 of their family members to have a small ceremony in central park.  just as they said their ‘i do’s’ the heavens opened + flooded us with a rain shower like no other.  now, in the moment of such chaos, you’re running around + trying to stay dry, + keep my camera out of the wet + take a few photos in the meantime…  it’s such a flurry of activity that often, it’s not till i sit down to edit, that i can re-live a little slower all that was happening.  + the thing that really struck me about nick + rochelle is how happy they are in the photographs.  they’re simply beaming in every single photograph.  despite the fact that their central park ceremony was nearly ruined… + they got completely soaked in their new wedding clothes… they are still so so so happy.  i don’t often post my shorter wedding ceremonies here… but this one just needed to be shown.  so new york.  so rainy. + so completely wonderful.  rain never has to ruin a good wedding day.  xo, brooke

p.s.  i was thrilled to work with the Reverend Annie again for this ceremony… she’s one of my fave!  Check her out if you need an amazing  + authentic officiant!
