Dani & Kyle: A Rainy Wedding Day at Aspen Ranch

in Edmond, OK

They say, “When it rains it pours.” And whoever “they” are weren’t wrong. May in Oklahoma can be a bit of a wild card where weather is concerned, and for Dani and Kyle’s wedding day — it was absolutely a “wild card” weather day. The day started cloudy/overcast, but clear, but quickly evolved to something darker, bluer, and grayer as the day progressed. It started to rain, the rain evolved into thunderstorms, and a few miles north evolved into “Tornado Warning” weather. Instead of passing quickly, like many Oklahoma storms that roll through, the storm turned into a bit of a torrential downpour that lasted for what seemed to be hours.

Despite the insane weather, Dani and Kyle radiated. Come hell or high water, nothing was ruining this day for them.

Based on old folklore, their knot will be one not easily broken. “They” say it’s good luck if it rains on your wedding day, an idea born from the belief that rain symbolizes fertility, renewal, and cleansing. The phrase “tying the knot” also stems from the rainy wedding day beliefs because tying a wet knot is more difficult to undo therefore symbolizing a strong marriage.

It was so wonderful working with Danielle during our whole wedding process! From the moment I initially reached out, she was kind, very helpful, and great to work with. She was always helpful and quick to reply. She worked with our wedding planner to come up with a great wedding day timeline and adjusted it based off my ideas. I loved being around her on our wedding day and knew that she had it all under control! Throughout the whole process she helped my husband and I feel comfortable behind the camera. Her photos are absolutely amazing!! Our photos are bright, elegant, and timeless. We will cherish our photos forever!! I could not be happier that we chose to work with Danielle for our wedding!!

We got a ton of lovely photos to capture the essence of our beautiful wedding! Overall, we're very pleased with our decision to work with Danielle and would recommend her to any couple who needs a fantastic photographer for their wedding!

I could not recommend Danielle enough. My husband and I wrapped up our wedding experience feeling as if we had made a new friend through Danielle. She made it a point to get to know us on a level that was more than just transactional. My husband Cooper expressed to me after the wedding that Danielle had made him feel as though he was important as the groom, while making him feel comfortable and calm through the whole process...I chose Danielle as my photographer because you could really see and feel the romance and happiness of the couples through her photos, and I absolutely could not be any more happier with my choice of photographer. We loved every step of the way with Danielle!

When we were looking through photographers galleries, we loved the style of Danielle's photos the best. Her work is bright, classic and elegant. We didn’t have any concerns prior to working with Danielle and the moment we met her, we knew we had made the right choice. She made us feel so comfortable. We absolutely love our photos! Danielle, you captured our wedding day perfectly. Choosing Danielle as our photographer for our engagement and wedding photos was one of the best decisions we made! We couldn’t love Danielle and her work more!
