Cloudy Skies? Yes Please! | Dove Ridge Vineyard

October 13, 2018

No bride wants rain on their wedding day. Old wives’ tails and superstitions about rainy days being good luck for your marriage go out the window the moment its YOUR Big Day at risk of a waterlogged “I DO.” In Efrain and Savannah’s case, the forecast was leaving us all guessing right up til wedding day.

One day rain. The next? Sun.

One day storms. The next? Clear skies.

“It literally changes every time I look!” Savannah’s assessment of the Fort Worth weather forecast was as accurate as it was undesirable.

In the end, what these two lovers received on their wedding day was a beautiful, often overlooked gift: gorgeous, cloudy skies!

Most brides we talk to assume cloudy skies are almost as bad as rain… I love getting to be the one to break the great news that nothing could be further from the truth! Cloudy skies open up limitless possibilities for pre-wedding shooting locations, making all hours of the day as photo-friendly as sunset! ESPECIALLY at a gorgeous, scenic venue like Dove Ridge Vineyard!

That’s exactly what happened with Efrain and Savannah. A morning mist gave way to beautiful, overcast light all afternoon, paving the way for some absolutely breathtaking moments to be captured across the vineyard’s picturesque landscape!

Efrain and Savannah, your day was beautiful! I love how laid back y’all are, and how much confidence you placed in us from the moment we met! Every detail of your day – from the amazing mariachi band, to the way you carefully integrated your colors throughout – was so beautifully woven together, and your commitment to being on time mixed with your easy-going, care-free personalities made the whole day such a JOY for us to share with you!!! Congratulations y’all… we love you guys!
