Theirs an old saying that rain on your wedding day is a sign of good fortune, indicating that your marriage will be blessed with longevity and resilience. This age-old adage proved true for Joe and Sarah, as their elopement day was met with a downpour of rain. But despite the weather, their love shone brightly, and their day was nothing short of magical.

We spent the day exploring the charming streets of downtown Santa Barbara, dodging raindrops and searching for dry spots to capture some beautiful shots. The Santa Barbara Courthouse provided a stunning backdrop for their intimate ceremony, which we held in a dry and quiet hallway where they exchanged their private vows.

The elements may have thrown a few challenges our way, but Joe and Sarah were true troopers, braving the wind and rain with grace and humor. And when the ceremony was over, drove down to the beach to brave the weather and capture some beautiful moments with the ocean as our backdrop.

Congratulations to Joe and Sarah on their incredible elopement day!
