    My family has been absolutely STALKING the 10-day weather report, and it's predicting thunderstorms for our wedding. Oodles and oodles of thunderstorms raining all over our outdoor ceremony. The giant tissue paper flowers I planned on doing who-knows-what with would surely get ruined.

    I know, I know...there's plenty of time for it to change. And even though we all said we would not flip out if it rains, we are all FLIPPING OUT. Our backup plan is just to move everyone inside to the reception venue and have them sit at their dinner tables and watch.

    So now I'm curious what the 10-day weather report said for YOUR weddings, and if it came true? Thunderstorms, anybody? Ooh, and if you've been to a wedding where guests sat at their dinner tables during the ceremony, can we chat about that?  I'm afraid people are gonna get all judgey, and I haven't decided yet whether or not I care.

    10 days out it went back and forth from the rehearsal day to the day of... mind you the day of the rehearsal we went out and swet up so we REALLY didn't want rain for either.

    Thankfully it didn't rain either day! =)

    Hopefully that will be the same for you!

    They predicted the worst snow storm ever for us 10 days out. It ended up dumping like a foot of snow the Thursday before, and our wedding day (other than being cold) was perfect!

    My friend had a wedding last summer and her 10 day forcast said thunderstorms! The DOC was thiiiiiiiiiiiis close to making the call to move the ceremony inside, but the rain let up just long enough for the ceremony & pictures before it started up again. By the time supper was done there was the MOST amazing sunset though.

    Fingers crossed that the rain stays away for you!
