Beth and Joe Are Married!! | Northwest Arkansas Wedding Photographer

Posted on May 15, 2009

Wow. SO much has been going on in this last month, as you can probably guess by my lack of posts. I’ve been really busy, but there are some other things going on that I will address in a future post. For now, let’s talk about Beth and Joe!

We really lucked out with the weather this day. It was supposed to be rather nice and clear all day UNTIL the outdoor wedding was supposed to start. I was on pins and needles that entire week watching weather.com, so I can only imagine how Beth was feeling. Oddly enough, once Saturday finally arrived, it started to rain ALL DAY. I’m talking hard, heavy, skin-soaking downpours determined to destroy outdoor weddings. I knew that there were no alternate plans for the wedding, so I was really curious as to what we were going to do if this rain didn’t stop. Invest in a bunch of umbrellas? Try to pack as many of the guests and wedding party into the small chapel as possible? St. Catherine’s at Bell Gable, where they were getting married, is REALLY small. I’m not even sure it can hold 50 people inside. There would certainly be people that would not fit inside. No, worries, though, once it got closer to the time we needed to head off for the getting ready shots, the rain started to ease up and I began to hope. Turns out the weather decided to give us just enough of a break for the before ceremony photos, the ceremony, and then photos after the ceremony. It started to rain again once everyone was tucked safely away in the reception. Thanks, Mother Nature!

Ok, on to what we are all really waiting for, the pictures!

Meanwhile, over at Joe’s parents’ house, my 2nd shooter, Audrey, was taking photos of the guys getting ready.
