Rain Rain Go Away!

What a mess the weather was this weekend! I had two weddings in Chicago this weekend the first of which was Chris and Niki's. The bride and groom flew all the way from San Francisco to Chicago to have their wedding here in Chicago on Wrigley Field but the weather had other ideas for their day! Unfortunately there had been so much rain leading up to the weekend that absolutely no one was allowed down on the field. The bride and groom were disappointed of course but we didn't let the weather prevent us from having fun taking pictures around the city!
We started out trying to take pictures of the skyline by the Planetarium but as you can see it was raining so hard you could barely see the buildings.

You can only keep a wedding dress so dry under an umbrella so after a few quick shots we were off to find some place nice and dry!

We ended up at Union Station in Downtown Chicago along with 2 or 3 other bridal parties. Unfortunately we all got kicked out by security for not having permits... apparently they aren't very sympathetic when it comes to brides running from the weather. But at least we got some fun shots before they asked us to leave including this shot of the bridal party by the south entrance!

Finally we headed for Wrigley Field to get a shot by the Marquee along with a few other photos around the stadium before finally taking cover from the weather once and for all in the Batters Eye!

Chris and Niki where so much fun to work with and I couldn't believe how they just kept having fun in spite of the weather. They actually embraced the rain and I couldn't have been happier to spend a rainy day with the two of them! Congratualations to them both!!
