This is amazing and has never happened at any outdoor wedding reception I've done that I can remember... first a storm, and then a rainbow!! This was truly an evening full of memorable moments.
Here's the video version, in my IG Reel.
Look at that rainbow!
Ok...let's back up a bit...I arrived with a pre-drawn wedding caricature in a signature mat, for the guests to sign their well wishes, and set up on the patio adjacent to the tent for cocktail hour...I had it covered up so the bride and groom wouldn't see it, as they'd opted to be surprised:
People started signing it, and I commenced drawing guests..with over 250 folks there, I used my line-drawing-only mode with mini-caricatures, for speedy results:
Just as the first hour ended and people were asked to head to the tent, this storm arrived:
So everyone adjourned inside the manor house and I continued drawing:
Once the rain stopped, everyone ventured out to the tent and I took a break, so the bride and groom could make their entrance and have speeches and dances. I took some photos of the unsettled, amazing sky...
After dinner, guests came back to the covered porch (third location!) where I ended my sessions...
The bride and groom were the very last to receive their caricature:
and it was a success!
