Unfortunately you can’t plan the weather for your wedding but you certainly CAN plan to have the best day ever! And that’s exactly what Rachel and Scott did for their moody Silvertip Resort wedding in beautiful Canmore, Alberta.

The rain was never going to stop these two!

To be perfectly honest, the rain made it absolutely perfect and these two embraced it with everything they had. I mean, wait until you see their first kiss! Super swoon! It takes a special couple to not let the weather affect your wedding day and I couldn’t be more grateful or happy to frolic with them in the rain and create gorgeous images. You two are certainly my kind of people! I’ve never been so soaked and yet I couldn’t wipe the smile off of my face as I ran umbrellas to you during your vows. What a moment!

This became one of my favourite weddings last year for two reasons. One because I finally got to use the word “moody” in one of my posts (no pun intended and big thank you to my husband for the perfect last name for a photographer lol). Second, it also happened to be my 40th birthday and Rachel and Scott made me feel so special and even had their entire family sing me Happy Birthday. Cue the blushing! I shall never forget your anniversary!

As I post this today, it’s pouring in Calgary.

Every time it rains, I think of you two and your incredible day. Thank you for trusting me! Thank you for inviting me to spend time with your amazing family for my first Silvertip Resort mountain wedding and thank you for all the insanely gorgeous children who graced my lens on your wedding day.
