Kaity & Chuck’s rainbow farm wedding

No hurricane was able to dampen the spirits on this pair’s wedding day. They had their heart set on a farm wedding and made it happen despite Hurricane Isaac’s threats. There were also handmade bridesmaids’ dresses, a mom who saved the day altering the bride’s dress, and last-minute rainbow-decorated barn.

Rachelle & Eric’s rainy improv-tastic casual cookout wedding

This couple may have gotten rained out of their original location, but an obliging firehouse ended up being an awesome substitute. As far as reception entertainment goes, this wedding wins all around: stand-up comedy, live improv, piñata bashing, and musical chairs! Plus, the story about the bride’s grandmother making her cake had me fighting the tears. Enjoy your Fourth of July with this Fourth of July cookout wedding!
