Nobody wants rain on their wedding day.
But, as all of us in the wedding industry know, 2026 has been "the season of rain".
May 23 was a chilly day, with near-torrential rain at times. This STUNNING photo of Tori and David was taken that very day.
They were married at The CAPE in Picton, where details are always professionally handled; their number one priority as a venue is ensuring that the people they are hosting have the best experience possible, even when Mother Nature has other plans.
The first thing I see when I look at this photo is the elegant presence of Tori and David and their loved ones surrounding them; their style and poise are ICONIC.
You have to look carefully, but if you do, you can see drops of rain on the outside of the tent walls, and some water on the floor where it has run in from the outside as the ceremony takes place.
To make this picture-perfect rain plan happen, the staff at the CAPE and the wedding planners of Country Road Events had to make some difficult, experience-based decisions and then implement them in a very efficient manner.
They expertly moved chairs and florals, setting up the ceremony space inside the tent.
When the processional commenced, the CAPE staff escorted each member of the wedding party from the mansion to the tent under stylish umbrellas, ensuring that each person arrived at the altar in tip-top condition.
They smiled, and executed all of this with warmth, genuine hospitality; guest comfort is always their number one priority.
Because this rain plan was implemented effectively BEFORE the ceremony, Tori and David's loved ones remained dry and comfortable, which meant they were able to truly enjoy the party that followed; AMZING VIBES when Party On DJ is in the house!
I am so privileged to work with seasoned professionals who haven't forgotten that true hospitality is always guest centred and never compromises.
