“Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain.”  This statement spoken by the father of the bride is the only way to describe Taylor and Tres’s perfect wedding day. When Hurricane Matthew decided to send down buckets of rain and hair twirling wind, Taylor and Tres embraced the unplanned conditions and literally ‘danced in the rain’. Having met at Duke University, the Duke Chapel and the Washington Duke Inn served as the perfect backdrops for their nuptials, football tailgate, and rockin’ reception. While many elements of their day could be categorized under “magical”, the highlight of the night was decidedly, the father of the bride’s toast. Mr. Starks told the most beautiful story about a question that Taylor had asked him when she was little. The answer to that question will make your heart swell and bring you to tears!
