Love Steadier Than the Storm Mr. & Mrs. Chumley’s Wedding Day

Some wedding days go exactly as planned — sunshine, blue skies, every detail unfolding just so.
And then, there are days like this one…

The forecast didn’t hint at what was to come. Skies darkened without warning, winds picked up, and the timeline took a few unexpected turns. What was supposed to be a golden-hour ceremony beneath open skies turned into entirely different plans and moving the whole wedding indoors at the last minute.

But here’s the beauty of it all: joy isn’t so easily shaken.

Mr. & Mrs. Chumley chose joy anyway. They leaned into every moment—last minute changed plans, windblown hair, and all—choosing to be fully present. And somewhere between the shifting skies and the steady rhythm of their vows, something even more beautiful emerged.

Because love like theirs doesn’t hinge on perfect conditions. It shines through them.

This wedding reminded me that the most unforgettable stories are often the ones rewritten in real-time. Where what lasts isn’t the sunlight or the florals or the timeline… but the way two people hold onto each other when plans fall apart.

Congratulations to the Chumleys

your day was magic, not in spite of the storm, but because of the way you weathered it together.

The beginning of their forever…
