A while back I was asked by a dear friend to do some simple wedding pictures for friends of theirs that were coming to Bermuda for their wedding. It was supposed to be a simple, beautiful ceremony at Stonehole Bay followed by a romantic dinner at Waterlot Inn, just the four of them.
Well…. this is Bermuda afterall and sometimes the weather doesn’t always agree with our plans! It was a windy, stormy afternoon a couple of weeks back and there was rain on the horizon, lots of it!! We did a really quick round of images at The Reefs and hurried over to the Chaplin parking lot to meet Pastor Charly Franks. With clouds rapidly approaching we quickly got underway, however no sooner than everyone took their place than the skies opened and it poured and poured and poured…
After taking refuge in the trees, soaking wet and with the rain not letting up Charly floated an idea, from there it was a dash for the cars. Charly had called up some frinds of his who so kindly opened their home for us to use for the ceremony. Not just any home mind you, an absoloutly amazing property overlooking the South Shore. An incredibly kind gesture to invite strangers into their home, offer up towels to dry us off and to top it off serve champagne after the ceremony. It really was such a beautiful moment.
The rain subsided and it was off to Waterlot for a spectacular sunset! All in all a crazy afternoon full of love. Throughout all of this Shelley and Stephen never stopped smiling or laughing. Sometimes the craziest things happen, you can’t control it you just have to roll with it. One things for certain, it was memorable and beautiful, congratulations Shelly and Stephen!
