5 Reasons To Be Excited About Rain On Your Wedding Day

In New Zealand, it rains. A lot. Even in summer. Even when the forecast tells you otherwise. Even when there was a drought this time last year.

The only thing you can be ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN about – is that no matter what, you can’t change the weather. It will be what it will be.
And if fatalistic acceptance isn’t quite your thing… here are 5 reassuring things to help set your mind at ease and be excited about rain on your wedding day.

#1 – RAIN PHOTOS

Here at Perspectives – we’re all about the rain photos. We’ve perfected our technique over many years;

blown up plenty of equipment while practicing; and now can pull these shots off any time, any place.

#2 – SOFT LIGHT

It’s no secret that overcast, cloudy skies makes for soft, pretty flattering light. It’s much easier to photograph in than on a harsh sunny day.

There’s no squinting, no panda eyes from the harsh sun and no sunburn!

#3 – EPIC SKIES

With rain, comes clouds. With clouds, comes drama.

#4 – A MORE INTIMATE CEREMONY

It might be Plan B… but usually moving indoors pulls everyone closer, and everything is more personal & intimate.

#5 – COOL INDOOR OPTIONS

A good photographer will always have a Plan B location plan (we usually have plan C and plan D too, just in case!)… so rain can give you the chance to get some cool, glamourous, indoor photos.

#6 – RAINBOWS

I know we said 5 reasons. You get 6. Because, rainbows.

So there you have it. Don’t stress about rain – you can’t change it – but you CAN change how you react to it.

Enjoy your wedding day, live it up, dance in the rain – and have the best freaking day of your life.
