Amy and Nicholas are from Ohio, and decided to have a destination wedding on Marco Island here in FL. So Ryan and I drove over Saturday morning so that we could get there a day early, check into the hotel, and scout out the property. The whole event took place at the Marco Island Marriott, and it was unbelievably beautiful. Apparently they just did millions of dollars in renovations, and it definately showed! On Sunday, we woke up and came to find that the sunny paradise we had known the day before had disappeared and that the temperature had dropped to the 50's! This wasnt exactly what you'd expect when you come to an island in Florida! Despite the weather we headed over to the brides room as normal to capture her getting ready for the big day. It had been sprinkling here and there all day long, but wouldn't you know the moment the ceremony started down on the beach, it began to POUR! The 60 or so guests and ourselves just looked at each other, not knowing what to do, but nobody moved. So we all just stayed out there in the rain for the whole ceremony, and I have to tell you it was so much fun! I felt like a kid playing in the rain! The downside was that it was raining in 50 degree weather so everyone was a tad bit miserable and cold, but not one person complained. Wouldn't you know it that about 15 minutes after the ceremony it cleared up and was pretty much beautiful for the rest of the night, go figure! Regardless of everything, we had a great day and really enjoyed being there!
