We live in a world where even the best-laid weathe We live in a world where even the best-laid weather plans can go sideways. Rain on your wedding day? Maybe not as ironic as Alanis once sang, but definitely more common than we’d like to admit. And yes, we all dream of blue skies. But what if a little rain doesn’t ruin the day... it makes it? These beautiful Polka Dot Wedding couples leaned right in. They danced through the downpours, laughed in the drizzle, and proved that a few raindrops can bring serious magic.
