No need to worry about rain on your wedding day, with a bit of planning and the right mindset there is absolutely no reason why you can’t have the best day ever, even in the rain but just to reassure you – these are my 5 top tips for making the most of your elopement day if it rains in Wales:
1) Don’t worry about the weather on your wedding day in Wales!
The climate in Wales is notoriously unpredictable and there is nothing you can do to change it – obsessively checking the weather forecast is only going to make you anxious and why worry about something you have absolutely no control over. Acceptance is the key to happiness.
2) Be prepared, both mentally and physically.
Consider the worst-case scenario – you get wet. I don’t know about you but that’s not the end of the world in my books. Nothing a transparent dome-shaped umbrella and a set of spare dry clothes in the back of the car can’t fix.
3) Be more like Will & Lulu!
They ate cake in the rain & had an amazing day by braving the elements, even at 4 months pregnant and with 2 dogs in tow!
4) Trust your elopement photographer!
We genuinely want to create something magical for you on your wedding day, even if the rain threatens to damage our kit or blurs our vision. We don’t care that we get soaking wet too and actually get really excited about the once-in-a-lifetime memories we get to share with you!
5) And above all – look happy!
Your wedding day is what you make it – feeling & looking miserable in your wedding pictures in the rain will only remind you that you probably should have just accepted fate. Do everything you thought you wanted to do if the weather was dry/sunny and I promise you’ll have THE best elopement day ever – even in the rain!
So there we have it, these are my 5 top tips for making the most of your elopement day if it rains in Wales. Don’t just take my word for it though – take a look at Will & Lulu’s previews from what was THE wettest wedding day of 2022 for me and I absolutely it!
