We held our breath as the rain poured down.  I watched the weather forecast like a hawk, and it seemed that maybe, just maybe it would stop raining just long enough to take some portraits outside.  Shannon’s smile never faded, though— she was thrilled it was her wedding day, and there were so many gorgeous indoor locations at Belmont Country Club, she wasn’t at all concerned about the rain.  Admittedly, even the bathrooms were gorgeous and regal at Belmont Country Club!  Check out her getting ready room below— we took all the photos in a stunningly gorgeous bathroom, right next to a claw foot tub.

After the ceremony, the bridesmaids peeked outside and let me know that the rain had stopped!  We ended up taking all the family and bridal party photos outside, and even got some sunset photos in after their grand exit!  Speaking of the grand exit— they chose bubbles and confetti— and it was awesome!!  I definitely recommend it for brides looking for a fun and colorful exit!

Shannon + Josh are some of the sweetest people you will ever meet.  Their families are total sweethearts, too, which made for a fantastic wedding day! I’m so thankful to have been a part of it.
