In so many amazing ways, the weather is a really beautiful metaphor for life. You can plan, you can make guesses based on what’s happened in the past and you can take a look at what you see in the forecast – but at the end of the day, you have no control. The best that we can do (in weather and in life) is take what we are given with gratitude and flexibility, and roll with what comes. We loved how these two embraced the rain as a character in the story of their River Bend Lyons Wedding Day. And then, when all of the flowers has been watered and the Earth has its’ fill, we got one of the most gorgeous sunsets I’ve ever seen. I like to think it was a little nod of gratitude for the rain being treated like an invited guest. She probably even got a slice of that delicious german chocolate cake.
