A rainy wedding in Swindon town
By nealejames | December 29, 2007

For any couples with a slight concern over what the good ole British weather will do on their wedding day, take a leaf out of the Zachans’ book. Ashley and Clare were hosting their wedding day in Clare’s original town of residence, Swindon. The couple now live in New Zealand and were back to share part one of their wedding celebrations with British family. Friday December the 28th, 2007 in Wiltshire was not exactly the kindest day on the year’s weather diary. By 3pm, the time of the couple’s ceremony, the rain was appearing in sheets. But, and this is one stormlashed ‘but’… far from letting the rainfall dampen any spirits, Ashley and Clare embraced the storm as part of their wedding day. They informally gathered outside the reception venue with their wedding party to howl with laughter as the rain descended at right angles in the strong wind. It was one of those moments where everyone forgot about neatly pressed suits and beautifully presented wedding dresses, to just BE. The photographs that resulted show a couple totally at one with their day. A set of pictures that demonstrates spirit is what makes a day special and not tailoring. Congratulations guys; I only wish I could be with you for part 2 in NZ.
