The forecast was calling for rain in Canmore AB the entire week leading up to their big day. As Tara & Luke’s wedding got closer it only called for more rain. But the night before their wedding I sat in a restaurant in Banff and it POURED. Like a monsoon. I held out hope all night that the rain would fall then and the next day would be miraculously sunny and clear. But when I woke up the rain was still steadily falling. Even through breakfast and the drive to the hotel to see Tara. At this point I started to grasp that this was just something I was going to have to deal with. I was so happy to have one of my best friends, Justine, along as my second shooter and knew we would make this work!
I walked into the room Tara was getting ready in and after saying hi asked how she was doing and how she felt about the rain. She responded with how it really stressed her out while simultaneously laughing. She was happy and laughing through it all. She also has the best laugh and it brings so much happiness to everyone around her. It is THE BEST.
The universe has a way of saying yes to all that is right. Moments before Tara stepped into her dress the rain stopped. The sidewalks dried up. They were able to have a first look outside. Keep their ceremony outside. Do all of their photos outside. And even though the rain would intermittently come and go it always stopped at just the right moments, even for them to take their first dance outside to the patio while their guests held sparklers circled around them.
I believe that things that are meant to be will always work out. Someway. Somehow. Tara & Luke’s day came together as if there was never a thing to worry about. It’s meant to be.
Tara & Luke thank you so much for including us in your day of celebration!! Such an honor! So stoked for your Eurotrip!!! Have an AMAZING time!!
XOXO
