On April 8th, it was a warm and sunny day. On April 9th it was rainy for the first part of the day, and freezing cold. In the early afternoon the rain stopped and some blue skies came out. So Rachel decided to go for it-- to have her wedding outdoors at Phoenix Country Club like she had so wanted. Robert, the Senior Manager at Phx CC, was so great about everything. They were prepped for an indoor ceremony as well as outdoor. It was so nice out, a little chilly, but beautiful. 5 minutes in to the ceremony, the wind kicked up and it began to rain! They sped up the ceremony and we all ran in doors! Rachel and Corey were so calm about it and still enjoyed their day. Many people would be bummed out, but they just laughed and thought it made their day unique. It was unique, for it was the shortest ceremony I have ever done in 18 years! Congratulations to Rachel and Corey!

Rachel got ready in the beautiful locker rooms at Phoenix CC. I couldn't resist shooting the bouquet in the natural surroundings with the towels...
Each button had to be latched thru its loop.
I can't tell you how I made Rachel laugh here-- but she is extra gorgeous when she lights up with a laugh!
Told you, blue skies up until 5:00ish. Ceremony time, 5pm.
Couldn't decide which shot I liked best of Rachel-- loved them all!
See the storm clouds brewing?
Never had a groom this determined to breaking the glass. Corey wasn't messing around!
LOVE this shot...her veil was flying from the wind. It was raining and we were all laughing with Mother Nature.
'We want a shot with a few of our friends.' Always ask how many friends before gathering them Tracy!
Me and bridal party, being silly...
She looks like she is right out of a magazine in this next one...
Don't mess with Corey...this shot shows off his hot and tough look!
See the rain on the ground in the following shot? I wasn't lying about rain, we had plenty that day!
