Did you know that in many cultures and traditions, rain on your wedding day is considered good luck? With so much negative talk about rain on your wedding day, I thought it would be a great time to discuss why rain on your wedding day is good! Not only thought of as good luck, it also provides some of the most stunning backdrops for your wedding photos!
Often seen as a symbol of renewal and cleaning, rain on your wedding day is thought to wash away any past negativity and allow a fresh start on your new journey together as a married couple. Rain is also seen as a sign of unity by joining two families as one.
In some cultures, rain on your wedding day is believed to be a blessing from God, bringing luck, prosperity, and happiness to the newlyweds. In our Amarillo farming community, rain is sparse and a rare occurrence. It is always seen as a blessing and never as a burden. Even if it delays planting, plowing, or other work, you won't hear a farmer around here complain about the rain. Rain is essential for growth and fertility in nature, and having rain on your wedding day can symbolize abundance, fertility, and the growth of your relationship.
A plus side to rain on your wedding day is that you can get some pretty amazing photos! Our West Texas sunsets and skies are even more photo-worthy after a good rain shower. You will not be able to get these type of wedding day photos at any wedding venue in the city! One time, a supercell thunderstorm came up after the wedding. The brilliant photographer, Brittani Preece Photography, grabbed the couple & took some of the most amazing shots I've ever seen. These photos went viral & the couple was interviewed by many news outlets including Good Morning America, The Today Show & several others.
In the end, regardless of your belief in the symbolic significance of rain on your wedding day, accepting the weather and seizing the opportunity can result in creating lovely and distinctive memories. It presents a chance to establish a warm and close atmosphere, and by approaching it with the right attitude, your wedding day in the rain can become a genuinely enchanting and memorable experience.
